    Kind of odd they go the whole season without one, and then get 2 in one game.

    The difference between Shack and Standridge is that Shack has numbers that correspond more closely to his ERA. Standridge was bound to slip, which he did. Now, I'm not sure it will last regardless, based on Shack's minor league numbers.

    The .192 opposing batters are hitting against him would suggest that there is a very good chance he may sustain this success in the future. I doubt he will continue to be THIS effective, but the fact that hitters struggle just to put solid wood on him leads me to believe he will be a very solid member of this bullpen the rest of this year and leading on into 2006.

    Marty is bored. He's now dishing about Brad Penney and the milk boy...

    I'm stunned by Shack's performance. He was my selection for player most likely to be promoted before he's ready. Hey, he was ready.

    The sleeper in the Jeff Austin - Alan Moye deal. And another Bowden acquisition.

    Does anyone else get anoyed by the :"In play, out(s) recorded."?

    Couldn't MLB have a button for one out, and a button for more outs? Especially when Casey is up to bat, I get nervous...

    Junior is now OPSing .926 on the season. Would anyone like to say the man is not back?

    Although I will be the first to admit, he is not what he once was, but dang, if he is this good now, imagine how good he used to be.
