Long weekend turns short as activities including family and weddings take up much of the already at a premium free time. Not too much was missed as the beloved squad managed a meager split with the less than mediocre Pirates. As the bats remain relatively cool, the mental mistakes and failure in the execution of the fundamentals are the talk of the town. I for one would not be me if I didn’t point this out and make it a mountain out of a mole hill, yet I feel the need to cut the guys some slack early on. We are in fact only seven games into what will be the 85 win majestic season of ’05. So listen up fellas, you have exactly about eight more games before this stuff really gets serious. Get out the steel wool and the rust remover and get it together and start playing the baseball we all know you are more than capable of.
Notes from the weekend:
-Apparently my seats at the Petco are very nice and I am looking forward to seeing a game there soon. Next Wednesday in fact.
-Weddings that bump you from your new season seats are okay if in fact they are put together like the one we attended this past Saturday night. It was a blast, the drinks flowed like wine, digital cameras across the land clicked and flashed and were left behind with astounding consistency.
-Taxi Cabs were a premium over this weekend. Long walks were the norm.
-Congrats to the happy couple, having lots more fun than we are down in Mexico. Jealously is bad. But hopefully souvenir t-shirts will soak up some of that pain.
Rained out baseball on Tuesdays suck. Double headers on Wednesdays are pretty cool. Jake v. Prior today and Lawrence v. Wood. Tough day of baseballing ahead of us. More later…
