Never forget that Brutus ( the once and former Brutus the Pimp) has become the BOSS of the game thread. Never doubt him .

Re: 8/27/12 - Reds @ D-Backs

That Matt Williams banner with the old Dbacks uniform reminds me how boring MLB uniforms are now.

Everyone stop doing red as your primary color, please.

To an extent I agree, but those D-Back uniforms were ugly.

Have to pinch hit for Valdez, unless you get two on and you want to sac bunt him.
