Excellent coaching job by Cann. He keeps this up it would be very hard to decide between him, Thompson, and Mingione for Coach of the Year. He is also ahead of his former boss Paul Manierie (sp??).

Prior to the weekend I would have said there is a <1% chance we win the series without winning on Friday. This team is so impressive in so many different areas, and they are fun as hell to watch!Quote:

We didnt want to start Stovall at 3B last year because he was a true freshman PLUS we had to have Collins batQuote:

Alexander has a hit in 6 of his last 7 sec games. He also hit a big HR Wednesday. He's not gonna be benched
