Nolie – I think it is closer. Right up the Interstate. But I come down from South Georgia.
Anyway, I love that ball park. Also got to go to the old park. Aaron played there.

CraZy has something to work with now.

I’ve yet to go to a Blue Wahoos game. Although when Mississippi comes back in town, I’ll round up some money to go.

Sup everyone, I’ve had net problems (cable modem fried) past few days, now that I got a new one, things are fast 8-)

Jupiter is 200+ miles from St Augustine… and Jacksonville is about 30 minutes. I think I’ll head to Jacksonville…

Some version of WAR. And you wonder why some of us are more than skeptical of some of the new metrics. Extra crispy and original recipe. Paper or plastic.

It would have been real discouraging if Freddie ran over to the rail for that foul ball and was looking up in the stands and it landed a few feet behind him.

Hudson won’t complain about Beltran not being in lineup: Beltran is 26-for-74 (.351) with 4 HRs against him.

Beltran has a sore right knee, nothing major but sitting today gives him 2 days to rest (team’s off tomorrow).

McFann, gotta wonder if you don’t need to update the Flash Player plugin for Chrome. Not gonna try to talk you thru it, but you might want to google “flash update for chrome” or some such thing, to see if you can find any help on it (gameday uses Flash, and I’d guess that’s where your problem is…just a guess, tho…

Let me guess what’s coming next: “I can’t trust any stat that indicates that Heyward has been better than Stanton so far in their careers.”

In other words, “Let me posit a strawman and then wail upon him.”
