If the injury is of any significant length, I agree with you. Last year, I think there was some reluctance to use Frank in center on an on-again, off-again basis, but maybe they think he's comfortable enough in the ML outfield by now to play both spots, Alex Rios-style.

not the best of ideas

The description of the blog on the middle-right part of the screen is pretty fantastic. Also, darn those fellows at mlb.com for not having game logs for the spring anymore.

Glad you like it -- and the best part is, it's all true, even the ending that sounds like hyperbole. I had a moment of inspiration while fiddling with the "staging site" just before midnight, moments before the SBN team starting moving it to the live site. I'm thinking of starting a "mission statements while-u-wait" service.

With a "buggy whip." Sounds quite intimidating,

It's sorta sad this was our last game with these yahoos (barring a home game in Houston during inter-league). I suppose I'll miss them during ST next year in Arizona.

(or not.)

Yahoos, hayseeds, bumpkins, yokels, call them what you will, they're awful and I'm glad they're gone.

I may need to replace the Z on my keyboard after this year.

It doesn't get as much action as the spacebar key or return key...until LGT came around.

I like the "new message" indicator!

Hello everyone,

baergagaga - your new message "came in" as I was reading the thread - I like how it alerts you to a new comment without having to review. That will certainly be helpful in writing "up-to-date" posts. :-)

in MLB.com's game recap:

Indians at the plate: Asdrubal Cabrera was 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and an RBI.

never mind that the run scored and rbi came on a HR
