My guess is Chang- I should also say I hope so

Banda shot himself in the foot yesterday.

Mitchell wasn't going tp play everyday. Good idea to send him down. Should try him at First Base. I like Chavis but don't believe he is the long term answer at First. Is very valuable as a utility guy.

I would like them to try Madris at first base, and in the minors work with Gorski. They need someone to play first base, and I don’t believe Mason Martin is the answer. I kind of wonder if they will not protect Martin from the Rule 5 Draft this offseason.

Madris at first- good idea

Before last night, the bucs were 17th in MLB in Home Runs. The

last time they finished higher than 25th, was 2914.

note: didn't know where else to put this. Maybe we should have

a thread for Buc facts. What do you think Bobster and Possum?

Sorry they couldn't get you a win on your birthday, Possum

Hopefully this will be the last we see of Chang.

Will really be interesting when Gamel and Newman return, Park for sure but then what?
