>I was surprised to see that a Phillie (Philly?) is leading the majors in homers -- and it isn't Ryan Howard.

Howard has started incredibly slowly this year; he's actually starting to get boo'ed. OTOH, Utley and Burrell have been hotter than hot.


>My Brewers are muddling along at .500. Surprisingly, iffy hitting has been a big factor. That and the LUNATIC OFF-SEASON DECISION to make Eric Gagne their closer. He blew his fifth save of the young season yesterday.

Yeah, I saw you talking about Gagne in a message a week or two ago--interesting theory.
