    Same with me. I keep telling myself, "These guys know what they're doing, they know how to succeed in major league baseball. This will work out." Keep repeating that to yourself. It helps me.

    I hate to be a buzzkill, but you do still have Ned Coletti as your GM.
    So I said to David Eckstein, "You promised me, Eckstein, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life, there have only been one set of prints in the sand. Why, when I have needed you most, have you not been there for me?" David Eckstein replied, "Because my little legs had gotten tired, and you were carrying me." And I looked down and saw that I was still carrying David Eckstein.

    They should be able to have a pretty good starting pitching rotation. What with all the starters they've signed

    I hope this means you are going to post in our literature section from time to time. You have referred many of us to some good reads over the last few years.
