I think we should be calling Smardz "chainsaw" or something. He's been breaking bats at a astounding rate so far this spring.

[Guancous]

Jones is awesome. <3

 

I root for Jacque after reading Fantasyland by Sam Walker. He knows he has holes in his game. No one cares more about fixing his problems than him. That helps explain the power surge at a late age.
