The lineup -- Furcal still sitting

He wasn't able to run without discomfort, so they're going to wait at least another day. Meanwhile, DeWitt moved up to second, behind Pierre

LF Pierre

Pamela Anderson throwing out the ceremonial first pitch Last night, it was Kristi Yamaguchi. Been a good weekend out here at Chavez Ravine.

How many servings of nachos do you think $18 million buys? Let's ask Andre Ethier, since he seems to have plenty of time to do the math.

It's sad, but Torre has lost it (if he ever had it on those talent-stocked Yankees teams to begin with).

I know he sees Andruw Jones hitting well in BP, but he's also hitting a league worst .038 w/ RISP. That's simply absurdly bad. I can see the theory that we "need" Jones' bat to get going to have a chance at making the playoffs, but does throwing games away NOW not hurt the team's chances?

I really feel for Andre Ethier. Not sure what more the guy can do.

P.S. Is Ned just sitting on his rear or is he working the phones to take advantage of Pierre's hot start? Hopefully McCourt has noticed that his GM isn't exactly helping the team. One disasterous free agent signing after the other.
