You have the score reversed for the Phillies/Braves matchup. Granted, it makes more sense that way if Atlanta does make a trade after being swept. (Instead of doing the sweeping)

Craig- just keep it the way it is.  You’re a blogger, so accuracy doesn’t matter, right?

Jet lag: euphemism for drunk/hungover?

Mr Mora can sit out as many games as he likes between now and the end of the season.  He has been a good troop for too long just to cut him loose, but he gives every indication of having lost it.  I would be very suprised to see him playing next season.

Are “stimulants” banned for NON-playing MLB personnel? (Jim Leyland’s nicotine addiction comes to mind…)  And since “greenies” have been (rightfully) banned for players, what’s their coffee consumption these days?  (Me, I live in Arkansas; aaaahhhhh, sweet iced tea!)

They only used Bruce Chen because Jorge Sosa wasn’t available.

I believe Plaschke referred to them as “GoogleBees” in his column, and demanded that they be run out of town so scrappier old-school insects that make decisions with their thoraxes and not their nerve receptors could swarm the field instead.

Melvin Mora is such a whiny POS sometimes. He’s infuriating.

But, you know, he has playoff experience! He’s a veteran!
