Wagner to avoid DL

If you own Ayala, it may be best to hang on to the guy, because the Mets don't sound too confident.

Cleveland Indians catcher Kelly Shoppach is 28 years old already. I find that some what shocking. I guess he has always had his career path blocked by two of the best in the game, Victor Martinez, and Jason Varitek, so I don't know if it is fair to say that Kelly Shoppach is a late bloomer or not, but it is sure a beautiful flower isn't it.

I snagged Shoppach up in two leagues when Victor Martinez went down. I'd even say that Shppoach is the reason for my rebound in the H2HWS. On that same Inglewood team, I also own Victor Martinez, who is currently residing on the DL with zero homeruns on the year. Martinez is going to have to show me a little something, once healthy, just to get a ride at utility. No way I am moving Shoppach. Eric Wedge could bench Kelly Shoppach, and I am not moving him.

I thought about going with the Dodger - Diamondbacks game, but I didn't like the match-up.

Plus I need the win from Ollie

I am actually thinking about decorating the whole page in blue and orange.

Someday, these game of the day posts will be a catch all for in game commentary type things. I didn't post a game of the day thread yesterday, and then later wanted to post a few comments about the Padres smacking around Brandon Webb, and I couldn't. I was denied.

Here's todays game.
