    Can’t wait to listen. May take a while though…Tis the season to be crazy busy.

    Nice interview! I’m more excited than ever about His Name is Dan Uggla. I didn’t understand what he was talking about as far as the “bat” Fredi carries around. Not being funny…really didn’t know what he was talking about. He made Fredi sound a lot like BC. Can someone please reiterate the differences, and quick?

    What relief, Jason Werth won’t be a Phillie anymore. Just…fantastic. *blast*

    Ugh. Why couldn’t he at least say Fredi doesn’t ride the hot bullpen arm? Go back and make him change that.

    Dr. Andrews, there’s a Mr. Venters here to speak with you…

    Way to sell out Werth. The Nats! Enjoy those paychecks and those free Octobers.

    At least, now we can say that the Phils are werthless.

    Curt Says:

    I give that marriage 3 years.

    Leah Says:

    Then can we swoop in and have an affair?

    Leah Says:

    He can play CF…right?

    Steve Says:

    Leah – I like the affair angle with Werth in 2015. I’m on-board.

    I read somewhere last night that the Nats’ offer was so above and beyond anyone else’s that Boras didn’t even go back to the original suitors to see if they’d match. But I’m with you all on the money grab. At some point, when you’re signing a 9 DIGIT CONTRACT don’t you go to a contender instead for a little less?

    Ham – I recorded the Walking Dead marathon last night and watched the premiere. Loved the hell out of it. Absolutely terrific. The missus sat down right about when the lead guy walked out of the hospital and she got hooked as well. It is really great. And some of the downtown Atlanta scenes are like 2 blocks from Coke on Marietta St. That’s fun, too.

    Ham Says:

    i know – it is satisfying on so many levels. I missed last night – can’t wait to watch it tonight.

    Steve Says:

    Rosenthal is reporting that the Royals, Rockies and Phillies are interested in Frenchy. Please Phillies, please!!!

  13. 13
    Ham Says:

    This joke doesn’t get old for me . . . can’t you see Frenchy getting signed by the Phillies and showing up in Pittsburgh instead, because it is further south and a little inside.

  14. 14
    Leah Says:

    Ham…that’s awesome.

  15. 15
    Curt Says:

    The Royals should just fill their roster with the Baby Braves, sans McCain. I hear Macay McBride is looking for work.

  16. 16
    Bubdylan Says:

    Ham, I love #13.

  17. 17
    Bubdylan Says:

    If the Phillies sign Jeff Francoeur to replace (on any level) Jason Werth, I won’t stop laughing for days.

  18. 18
    Bubdylan Says:

    Pray that this Lorenzo Cain rumor has legs or grows them. I love that guy.

    Bubdylan Says:

    Mama, you’ll be proud to know I’m pulling for your boys in the National Championship game. Seeing them in the picture on ESPN across from the Ducks about to play for it all, I was like, huh, that’s so weird looking. Auburn.

    I had some mushy nostalgia come over me or something.

    I lived two blocks from Jordan Hare and used to open up the windows in my apartment and listen to the crowd noise.

    Did I tell you (I probably did) I broke into Jordan Hare in the middle of the night and went and laid under the stars on the 50 yard line listening to my walkman? Then I climbed to the top of the seating and bounced loose change down the aluminum benches; it sounded like a Star Wars laser gun battle.

    Of course, me pulling for them is the kiss of death.

    War Eagle.

    Bubdylan Says:

    Philly fans giving themselves the “hey, maybe Frenchy will snap out of it if we get him” pep talk. I just read and smile gets bigger and bigger.

    Leah Says:

    How are you an Alabama fan with a story like that? Did I tell you that my brother in law, who is a huge Bama fan, was in town during the Iron Bowl? I lierally had to clean dip spittle off the tv screen when he left. I wish I was kidding.

    War Eagle indeed! If they lose I will hole you personally responsible. :)

  22. 22
    Bubdylan Says:

    Please don’t hole me. I’ll be good.

    I was a Bama fan the first 20 years of my life. But when I lived in Auburn I tried to switch, with some success, just to enjoy the atmosphere, etc. Then when I left, well 3 years in a football town doesn’t erase 20 years of wearing crimson.

    Is a “lie rally” something to do with Congress? :)

    Leah Says:

    Haha…the really funny thing is it took me a minute. I was like “hole me”? What the…!!!! That’s what I get for posting while loading the dishwasher.

    Bubdylan Says:

    Scott Linebrink played a gig at something called “Woodjock 2010″ as the lead of a country band. He sang a Billy Joe Shaver song, some John Prine, and some Merle Haggard.

    I now like the trade. (I’m such a girl…)

    Steve Says:

    Does KK really go to Pittsburgh? It will probably cost them around 3MM. He certainly showed brilliance in ’09 and had only one great game in ’10 (his final start against the Tigers). Seems a pretty steep price to me.
