Aside from Fogg, the starting pitching been very good so far. Hopefully Volquez continues that trend tomorrow.

I like Hatteberg better, too. But he might bring more in a trade.
Five years ago today, Paul Bako went 4-for-5 with a triple and 6 RBI's in a 9-7 Cubs win over the Reds at GABP. That was the game in which Ken Griffey, Jr. injured his shoulder.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Right now EE has a .154/450 BA/OB split.
Haha that is awesome.
Agreed.
If they keep Bako as the backup C, and Valentin turns into the designated PH, then I would much prefer that designated PH be Hatteberg than Valentin.
Bako > Valentin as a defensive catcher and a game caller. I would much rather him work with this young staff than Valentin.
More importantly, 1-0 gamethread starter on the year. I deserve a gameball or something.
There were some boos at GABP today... for the guy picked for the Skyline Chili Shuffle (he was wearing a Michigan t-shirt)...
