    And Burns is developing a Eckstein/Vina/Podsednick like feel to him.

    Definitely Podsednick. Randomly hits home runs against us and no one else.

    Backman? Dykstra?

    I frowned reading that post. Podsednik for sure. That dude turned it up against us it seemed.

    He was a favorite of mine in the dark years. He may not be a team MVP, but guys like him give flexibility to contenders that make a difference. Marwin playing the 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 is just huge.

    The horn/drum combo has me close to putting this game on mute. It's worse than the O.co sewage system.

    I'm having a hard time remembering which NL team was as annoying as these A's.

    I didn't realize that he has 22 career homers... all solo shots. That's just odd.

    That has to be close to a record, right? Where's STATS, Inc when you need 'em?
