The lineup for today’s game has been posted in Houston. Chris Capuano will bat ninth. We are assuming that he’ll be OK with it, that he won’t need a day, that he doesn’t have to clear his head and that he won’t be the least bit insulted.
Capuano, incidentally, is batting .182 — or seventeen points higher than certain other would-be/wouldn’t-be ninth-place hitters.
What a fine teammate that Chris Capuano is, though he’d probably just see it as being professional and doing his job.

Well put Greg
Great one, Greg.
Perfectly written.Stolen as my facebook status!
Fabulous.
If Posada had to play in the NL, his career would have been over before he could get his fourth ring. Heck, given his unwillingness to block the plate, maybe even sooner than that.
