So with Mike Sweeney on the DL and Jack Hannahan taking time from Daric Barton at first base, I thought it'd be an appropriate time to mention that Dan Johnson's hitting .336/.448/.603 at Durham.

DJ raked at Sacramento as well.

4. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:15 PM (#2801551)

Tremendous defense there.

5. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:18 PM (#2801553)

I'm actively rooting for Cliff Floyd to be hit by a train at this point.

6. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:20 PM (#2801559)

How about not missing action on the field while you show that lame ####### interviewing nobodies in the stands?

7. Ivan Grushenko of HK in Tokyo Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:21 PM (#2801561)

So Ponson is good now?

8. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:23 PM (#2801563)

Ponson entered with a 5.24 RA and a 20:13 K/BB ratio. So...no.

9. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:29 PM (#2801572)

They're really milking this three-RBI game business for Boggs, like two of them weren't the result of a pop fly to shallow center and a fly to left.

10. Ivan Grushenko of HK in Tokyo Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:33 PM (#2801579)

Yes, but they all look like line drives in the box score.

11. Ivan Grushenko of HK in Tokyo Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:35 PM (#2801585)

Does Ryan own an Astros farm team and work for the Rangers?

12. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:38 PM (#2801593)

Yes and yes.

13. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 08:44 PM (#2801602)

The badly dubbed "live" in the middle of the Harold Reynolds commercial drives me nuts.

14. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 09:02 PM (#2801642)

As the clock strikes midnight...

15. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 09:14 PM (#2801667)

Stop sucking at any time, Joe.

16. Greg Maddux School of Reflexive Profanity Posted: May 31, 2008 at 09:16 PM (#2801670)

That's continuing to suck, Joe.
