After such a horrendous start, it's incredible that May has been able to get his average up to a respectable level. Plus he's swiping bags at will. Keon has been clawing his way back as well. Great to see them working through it.

Adolfo wastes no time in proving he's embraced the organization's hitting philosophy by striking out in his first AB.

Montas nearly walked as many batters tonight as he had for all of his other starts combined.

Rondon's lack of XBH's has been pretty remarkable. Of his 48 hits on the season, 43 are singles. In 221 plate appearances, he's accumulated 5 doubles, 0 triples, and 0 HR.

Rondon is up to 9 errors on the season now. Hopefully it's just that he's trying to do too much. It's so funny how great defensive players often make errors on the most routine plays. It must be hard to maintain focus when you've reached an elite level of skill.

Norberto "Paco" Martin.

Speaking of #7's... Does anyone remember Norberto "Paco" Martin? I don't know why, but me and my brother were obsessed with him when he was with the Sox. We were pretty upset when he left the organization and his number went to (shudder) Jerry Manuel.

Haha, I'm glad to see that other people are pissed off by little grammatical errors like that. I was starting to feel like I was the only one. I think the one that gets to me the most is when people say "rediculous" instead of "ridiculous." This one's getting out of control. A couple weeks ago, I even saw it printed in the headline of a front page article in my local newspaper.

I thought "When the Levee Breaks" was a good choice. Great song. And the King of the Hill theme would be hilarious. What about "Ace of Spades" by Motorhead? That song is fierce. And if you're looking for a laugh, download Pat Boone's version of "Enter Sandman." That's right, I said Pat Boone...hilarious.

So we move up from 22 to 4 just like that? Give me a break...

Phil Rogers picked Zack Greinke as the AL Cy Young.

That'd be hilarious if Berry was in fact the guy Kenny traded for in the infamous Berry/Barry mishap. Who's laughing now LA?

How has Baj been pitching this spring? I haven't heard much about him lately.

Anyone know how old this Berry guy is or what level of the minors he's at?

How old is Reynoso?

Hey guys, long time reader/first time poster here. Yet another immigrant from the horrible espn board. This was probably already discussed, but how many positions can Cintron play?
