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

I like Carlos Lee.  He has that easy, Daryle Ward, joy of playing.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

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

You see pal, that's who I am, and you're nothing. Nice guy, I don't give a shit. Good father, fuck you. Go home and play with your kids. You wanna work here, close. You think this is abuse? You think this is abuse, you cocksucker? You can't take this, how can you take the abuse you get on a sit?

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.
