AAA call-up candidates:  Jeff Samardzija, Jose Ascanio, Jeff Stevens, Chad Fox's severed arm, Greg Reinhard, Esmailin Caridad.

I had never heard of either Reinhard or Caridad before today.

I'm not pushing the panic button on the bullpen.  It's too early to jump on the hate bandwagon.  With baseball, things need time to evaluate, the bullpen especially.  But, still, ....

IT'S FUELED BY DROPS OF PERSPIRATION COLLECTED FROM HUEY. PERSPIRATION THAT ACCUMULATED WHILE HE WAS FORCED TO INTERACT WITH JOHN MURRAY. ALSO, THE STEREO'S VOLUME KNOB FELL OFF WHICH IS REALLY FRUSTRATING AT TIMES.

WHILE YOU WERE WAITING AT THAT RED LIGHT, HE OFFERED JOHN MADDEN A RIDE BACK TO HIS BUS. OH JESUS HE JUST BROKE YOUR DOOR HANDLE AND THAT OVERSTUFFED BAG HE'S CARRYING IS FULL OF INDIAN FOOD. WHERE IS THE BUS? NOBODY KNOWS--NOT EVEN WEEBS--AND MADDEN'S STARTING TO HUNGER.
