Len agreed to do a Q & A while in CA

murton HR! 2-1

 

:D

[J.R.]

We're all set to gain ground AGAIN. How will we let today's chance slip away?

 

LOL @ Nationals, Sox

[cjbucks]

still trying for shortest gamethread ever?

 

sssshhhhhhh........it's like a no hitter - the more you talk about it the less the chance that

 

MURTON YESSSSSSSS!!!

 

it will happen.

[abuck1220]

too bad murton can't hit righties.

[Mark Priors Calves]

not to bring abuck out of fthe woodwork but why is Rusch continually starting games when guys like Hill and Mitre could be getting valuable experience at ML level? Dusty is rightfully catching a ton of flacking for not starting Cedeno and Murton everyday but not the same heat for using Rusch?

[Warpticon]

Wow. Neifi's (.307 OBP) batting second, and Walker, Barrett, and Murton are 6-8, with respective OBPs of .353, .347, and .415 on the season.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Murton ensures some quality-bench time with that HR.

[Warpticon]

And Murton homers!

[muntjack]

Okay Murton is now over .340 and showing power. It's time for him to play everyday.
