June 18, 200718 yr Anyone know if he's coming back tonight? He's played in 8+ minor league games, I was thinking it would be tonight, esp with the DH spot back.
June 18, 200718 yr I read in the paper today he should be back this week, and Erstad should be back during the Marlins series. I'm not expecting much from either one though. Erstad got hurt on a swing,so he may go down at anytime, and its not like Pods was Rickey Henderson II in Charlotte. He even says he's worthless if he can't steal.

Prancer is hopefully playing his last overpriced season for this team. He cant steal anymore, so pretty much he is worthless to this team.

June 18, 200718 yr Erstad is still at least 5 days away. They said he can run straight ahead but can't make sharp cuts yet.

June 18, 200718 yr Well Podsednik was 0-4 last night with a K and a CS, that's the 2nd SB he's attempted, he was successful the other time. Over his last 5 games for Charlotte he's struckout 6 times and walked only once.

June 18, 200718 yr Author This is more of a question due to my girlfriend wanting to see more games when Pods is back. So hurry on back Prancer!

June 18, 200718 yr Pods is having a good year save for the injury. that's his pattern. bad year, good year, bad year, good year. last year was a bad year. 2005 was a great year for him. this year he's hitting over .300. he will impress when he's back in the line up. how could he not given how poorly jerry owens performed? this will allow erstad to hit further down in the line up where he belongs.

June 18, 200718 yr The day Jim Thome sits for Scott Podsednik is the day Ozzie Guillen loses his job unless: 1) Jim Thome is hurt 2) Scott Podsednik takes steroids 3) We're 100 games up on everyone else
