As I was posting that about Tex I had a feeling he'd make me eat my words. I was already fighting the urge to get on his bandwagon, but stubbornness and all kept me from it. Well...stubbornness over. Just one game in August without a hit, scored in 5 of his last 9, 11 RBIs and 4 homers in that span...just solid. Gives us someone to nail down that 1B spot, some leadership (and depth), and some sweet pop in the bat.
I could get used to this former Jacket.
Can you say RICK ANKIEL? Three-hit 2 homer day today, with a phenomenal catch for any outfielder, much less a revamped once-tanked pitcher. Those curtain calls are well deserved, bud. Frenchy & McCann have some competition for the fave player spots of this baseball fan. (I don't see it being a problem for the kids, though; I'm still a fan of Rob Mac, Dioner Navarro, Furky, Paul Byrd...)
Next blog? Initial thoughts on the Titans, commentary on new NHL threads, and BeckhamMania.
