    Good to see the board still here after my hiatus.

    Doing well. Been pretty busy. Couple of nice trips. Same old same old with this team. Get your hopes beating bad pitching. I'm not getting sucked in again. And can they just stop with Volpe. The guy is quickly approaching .200. Him and Wells just kill this lineup.

    Glad to hear that you're ok...didn't know if you had a medical issue that took you away or, like many, you just got sick of the sad situation we find our franchise is in.

    But yeah, both Volpe and Dominguez have fallen prey to the "HR or bust' mentality and so out 7-8-9 spots are pretty much a black hole. And neither are very good defensively. I have more confidence at playing Caballero at SS and Spencer Jones should be in the September call ups so he should be given some starts.

    Also, with the exception scheduled rest days, Boone needs to have Rice in the line up every day, whether it be ay C, DH, or 1B.
