Two grand slams in the same game since the Mets on July 16, 2006. They did do it in the same inning, the sixth.

It is good hot out of the frier, cold out of a tupperware on a picnic or a fishing trip or while hunting. I propose that Fried chicken is the best food ever invented.

Petit with an ERA nearing 3.00. I’d say he’s proving himself an invaluable commodity. how about that trade with the marlins last year. looking right now like one of Byrnes’ best trades so far.

Jim, you were bemoaning our inability to make a trade that turned out unexpectedly well for us?
Well?

I think my key word was
Immediately We got Petit in March 2007: I always liked that one though. Anytime you trade a reliever for a young starter, it’s usually a good thing.

keeps looking better. At this rate Petit may just prevent Scherzer from being welcomed into the rotation next year (assuming the Big Unit returns).
"There are only two seasons: winter and baseball"
-- Bill Veeck
At this point I think I might want to see the FO bring back RJ, deal DD (if they can get a decent return) and trot out Webb-Haren-RJ-Petit-Scherzer. Your thoughts?

-- Bill Veeck
Of course it never hurts to have 6 SP.
"There are only two seasons: winter and baseball"

I’m thinking depth might be better. We’ve largely been healthy this season, but have still needed 14 starts from pitchers outside the big five [Webb, Haren, RJ, Davis and Owings]
