Doc,
If Yon Kyle has a lean and hungry look, does that mean Jose Lopez was the fat, sleek-headed, sleep o' night type, that Caesar preferred?
If so, Caesar was no GM.
1. Kudos to Furbish, too. He continues to impress me.
2. Did you see the 5 relievers at the mic after the game? They were asked about Montero behind the plate. Each said he's really improving, all seemed impressed. League said "I personally like throwing to him." He kept putting down just one finger will Millwood on the mound, and while I'm sure there was some dugout conversation where Millwood told him that was the deal for the day, he still executed it and kept Millwood in his rythym.
3. I'm not sure Figgins' catch wasn't made by Carp, too, but it was a nice play. Ryan's play was what Ryan does. Well done Wedge.
4. Remind me why people think Ichiro looks slow this year?
5. In the 5 reliever press room deal, Wilhelmsen looked most like he knew he belonged right there. He has a presence. BTW, he looks like he can start. He's smooth and efficient and looks like he would fit in a 7 iunning stint. But I sure don't know if you play with what he's bringing right now.
6. Almost every time Seager comes up now I expect some kind of ringing rocket-shot off the RF wall. Oh, kudos to the kid for the great play on the bunt, too.
7. I thought Montero was aglow on the field , after the game, too. He knew he had just done/been part of something impressive. It will make a difference in the way ALL the staff sees him as a game-caller, too.
8. I checked again for the stillness, dead-quiet type, of Saunders' bat, just as he begins to load. It's there. He get's very quiet, and then goes boom.
Beware the ides of..........Sept/October, eventually.
