LOL Dusty was doing work early on in that video!
Volquez is so aloof... He reminds me so much of Manny. Not a care in the world and always smiling, and nobody has any idea what he's smiling at.
And DRH needs to start walking out with guys like Cabrera, Cueto, and Hanigan.
Walking out with Homer and Chapman wasn't his best PR move. lol It still amazes me that that guy gets people out.
