    How great would it be for him to go nuts over the next week.
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    I wonder how many balls get hit on to the apple.

    By Votto's reaction, I thought he just missed it at first.

    No no no no. The Joey-Votto-Casual-Bat-Laydown is vintage "Yeah, I just did that" from Joey Votto.

    Looks like Dusty told the guys to come out swinging early in the count tonight. Each guy saw just 2 pitches. Of course, I'll take 8 pitches and a run every inning.

    It was the reaction on his face, not what he did with the bat. But hey, whatever works!

    Maybe he didn't. Maybe that's how far he hits 'em when he just misses them

    I'll take a few more things like what Joey just did in the game tonight when we get to Philly. Charlie Manuel should probably have looked more at the schedule before he made his All Star picks, LOL Those Philly fans should be VERY worried about Joey coming to town this week with a chip on his shoulder! More funkblasts are coming for sure, LOL

    An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”

    Oh, he was saying all day that people are making too big of a deal about Votto getting snubbed. It turned out to be great free pub for Votto though. Cowherd was saying Votto is fourth-best out of Pujols, Howard and Gonzalez. (Not necessarily just this year, but overall.)

    That was an absurdly good at bat by David Wright. Fouled off numerous tough 2-strike pitches, and got a clean single on a pretty tough 3-2 changeup.
