Btw, Zambrano was in the stands today. Was a few rows in front of us behind the home dugout.
Shook some hands and took a couple pictures with people but pretty low key.
He stood when the WS scored the first run in the 6th but did not clap or say anything, fwiw.
What's weird is it doesn't look like season ticket holders can take advantage unless you just buy an additional ticket like any regular ol' Joe. Kinda sucks.

Who the hell is 29? He looks like a cartoon character!
Their backup catcher. I agree and noticed it as well, the helmet looks huge on him. Looks like a child.

Orlando Cabrera makes his return tonight. I for one hope he gets a nice round of applause his first AB. All the clubhouse stuff aside, he helped the Sox win a division last year and always, always played very hard.
But I don't think it's going to go that way - maybe a fifty-fifty thing.
Meh, only a single year. I'll watch him a little differently than other players, but clapping? I'd probably require a little more commitment than a stopgap for his next assignment.

I actually think that's fair. Giles is just now starting to hit, and his numbers will experience some severe inflation in the Cell. Best case scenario for Poreda and Richard's combined numbers could be Peavy, and Getz remains something of an enigma.
AND Dye? That would be redonkulous.

I think this deal would be made with the long term in mind. Giles would be a placeholder in RF for the season and bat lead off. Peavy would solidify the top of the starting rotation with Buerhle and Danks and mean that we only are relying on the minors for one starter next season from Marquez, Hudson, and whomever else. I can see KW signing Abreu in the offseason to fill the gap in RF when Giles moves on/retires.
So the deal sounds like Dye, Poreda, Richard, and Getz? Peavy and Giles ??
That sounds awful to me...

First time in MLB history teammates have hit "century" (100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700) homeruns in the same game.
Much less, back-to-back.
