Mike Leake has dominated grocery baggers for a few weeks. Awesome.

It was 1 bad year on the heels of 6 years of abject mediocrity. When 'eh' is as good as you can hope for and you've now burned your best shot at building excess value in a long-term contract, I'd say it's fair to start writing up the obituary on the Leake deal. It may not be fair to publish it yet, but I'd go ahead and have a rough draft ready to go... |

Nobody backs up 3b like Mike Leake, man. Everytime somebody rings a double into the RC gap, Leake knows exactly where to stand just in case somebody airmails a throw. He's heady like that. Talking about Mike Leake's hitting became almost as common as "That's a ball Jason Heyward usually gets to" right after Jason Heyward failed to get to yet another ball. Man, I'm getting really excited to hear Dan tell me stuff that I'm just clearly not smart enough to see with my own two eyes. And that has to be the case because it's pretty common that when he's talking, I have no !@#$ing clue what he's rambling on about. I learn a lot by listening to Dan. |

I'd probably end every inning with it. "And there's a routine grounder to 2b....OFF WONG but it bounces to Carpenter who DIVES to beat the runner to the bag for the out. Heady play by Wong and it looks like Carpenter is down on the field. Onto the top of the 6th, Cardinals trail 7-2, and it's !@#$ing absurd that Bill Mazeroski is in the Hall of Fame and Jim Edmonds couldn't even get 2 years on the ballot...." |

But at least put Edmonds up there more often. That guy was entertaining as hell. |
