28 days until Opening Day.

Alfonso Soriano broke his finger over the weekend. Doesn't sound like it's too bad, though.

the cubs are like drunk sex... you jerk and you jerk and you jerk... and you never get off.

yea yea.

as far as soriano, its just a chip on the tip of his middle finger.

theyre just waiting for the swelling to go down.

no throwing or batting for a few days, so maybe he can work on his wheels a little more.

I just don't want any nagging injuries, though.

Like Ramirez' groin. He's been hurtin for at least 3 years now.

yea.

but thankfully ramirez doesnt rely in his speed in his main game.

only thing i think it has hindered is his defensive ability, which really isnt that bad.

im ready got marmol and samardzija.

yea, i had to google his name.

Done. Although I doubt it will do much more than allow my inbox to be flooded with junk mail. BUT...it's worth a shot, I guess.

MLB Gameday Audio = Purchased.

I won't miss a single Pat/Ron broadcast while at work this year.

Only $14.95 to be able to stream ANY and ALL games throughout the entire Pre-season, Regular Season and the playoffs.

Sweet deal, in my opinion. I can't get 720 AM to tune in at work...

Exactly. And there's the few times per game when it just stops updating and then all of a sudden, it's an inning and a half later...

Monday's the day. I've got the 2nd half of the day off work. Beer + BBQ + Baseball...it doesn't get much better than that unless you add boobs to the equation.
