I'm down on Cowser more than anyone here but I'm thinking long term.  Short term he's got to be better than this.

I thought Cal was with Paula Abdul.

The Mets BP was taxed last night, I hope they don't let this kid get in a groove.

Damn, McKenna just missed it.

Gameday said he lined out to RF.  How hard did he hit it?

I think his new wife is a Judge from Annapolis.  She is pretty good looking but I am not sure people would mistake her for Paula.  Was Cal sitting near someone who looked like Paula?

Man, Henderson's HR was only an HR in 28/30 parks, he mashed that. AZ and COL would not have been HR's at 422 feet??

Gibson is looking sharp tonight.

Knock on wood.  Henderson has been making a lot better throws lately.  No where near the amount of bad throws he was doing earlier this season.

Who has less of a baseball body... DJ Stewart or Vogelbach?

It was a weak little flair on a swing he had to lunge at to adjust to a pitch that dove down and away from him.

Weams and I got to mingle with Cal and Eddie back in 2008 at a special event.  I got to chat with Eddie about his work with youth in So Central LA.  He told so many funny stories throughout the conversation and during the Q&A they had. 

Cal wished me congratulations on our engagement. 

We each got to take photos with them.  I'm like so tiny between the two of them!

What great memories. 

Very cool! Eddie has a great personality.

My Dad used to tell me stories about when he visited Eddie after Eddie invited him to his home back in the mid 80s. Eddie used to have a bunch of arcade video games and pin ball machines in his home that were pretty state-of-art at back in those days. They were fun to have when he had guests, but they seemed to require regular maintenance and upkeep.

Kyle Gibson looks like Bob Gibson so far...wow..

Weakly.  I thought it was more a soft fly.
