Hopefully I can catch one of the later replays. Today’s game has been blacked out for me for some reason. Hopefully I can catch one of the later replays.

Vargas just keeps amazing me with each outting. I would not have given him much of a chance going into this season, but he is proving to be up to the challenge. I am starting to get really intrigued with the possibility of having Woodward replace Cedeno as the utility infielder for the team. Cedeno has the defense, but his stick is nearly non-existant. Woodward, while not the equal of Cedeno on defense is still pretty good and he comes with a bit more productive bat. Amazing what Vargas had to say about working with Johnson behind the plate. Those two synched up famously last night and Vargas likes to work with a catcher who knows what he is doing. Vargas said that he prefers to let the catcher lead the way and just follow. I don't think Vargas shook off Johnson even once last night! Lonnie That really was an enjoyable game to watch! Vargas just keeps amazing me with each outting.

King Felix on the hill, but a line-up that will probably consist of Ichiro, a banged up Branyan and a whole bunch of minor leaguers...I'm picturing something like: RF) Ichiro 1B) Branyan DH) Sweeney CF) Gutierrez LF) Balentien 3B) Woodward SS) Betancourt 2B) Cedeno C) Burke Oh the humanity!
