Except when he's giving up about 80 pounds  "It's actually pretty funny," Burke said. " Carlos Lee, on his first day here, told me, 'Catch anything you can. But if I call for it, get out of my way.' Link (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/2007-04-18-centerfield-transplants_N.htm)

I like Carlos Lee.  He has that easy, Daryle Ward, joy of playing.

Did you catch JD's comment last night.  Said a former teamate gave him the nicknam 7-11 becuase his mouth was always open.

Watch how far Everett is going out in left and also in center.  If I didn't know any of the rules of defense and just watched the Astros, I'd say it was the shortstop's play to call.
