No Span? No Willingham? Any word on why either of these two would need to miss today's game? Did span have a setback? I thought Willingham's neck stiffness was just a one day thing.
Plouffe being sloted in the DH for defensive reasons?
Yikes, I didn't even read that lineup when I posted it.
Yikes.
LEN3 says that Span is fine - they're giving him the day off from facing a lefty. Willingham still has a sore neck.
I might as well write next Thursday's news story:Quote:

Cynic:). But if it comes true, maybe you can advise me on some good stock picks...Quote:

That lineup looks like a spring road game in Ft Lauderdale.
It will be interesting to see what happens if Sam hits somebody. He is kinda prone to doing that.
Fun to see Revere and Mastroianni in Center and Right. Looking forward to the September call-ups so we don't have to see Doumit in LF.
LENIII is reporting a six game suspension for Diamond.
Well this pretty much sucks. Diamond suspended.
Twins behind in the 1st inning again.
Ugh.

Denard needs a day off after this exhausting road trip

Yep, that pretty much sums it up.
Being out here in the DC area at least I have the Nationals and Orioles to watch as well as a Nationals class A team 10 miles down the road.
Nice hustle Elvis.
