Mr. Elias, Sir,

I "check" on the thread often. However, unfortunately, I live in N VA and with both the O's and Nats in last place, I seldom have much to brag/talk about.

Although, the Nats did win three in a row this week - two against the Phils. We've got good pitching and very little hitting. If Werth settles in, Zimmerman comes back, and Morse and Espinosa continue to develop we could actually have a nice, young nucleus. Then when "our boy" Bryce Harper comes up (hitting .430 in the minors) and hopefully Strassburg can be part of his former self, we may actually be competitive. But, until then, I'll reserve comment on my home team!

Good part is, I can get tix to either team as a walk-up anytime!

Varitek and Pap both ejected during a wild 9th inning meltdown by the Sox today.

Hopefully, Mr Pujols has turned the corner on his season with his 2 HRs last night. The second one was a walk off shot in the bottom of the 12th to beat (wait for it) ---------- the Cubbies!!!!!!!!
