Yup Martinez can pop one now and then. There is on a Phils website that keep tracl of ll heir minor leaguers from class A to Triple A--and maintains stop ten list--i need pin down where that site is--are two top postion playres prospects last year were Gilles andGalvis, and Gilles got injured and Galvis gets injured. It is VITAL their injuries don't have career effects, as Galvis is are future 2nd baseman and then SS. And Gilles are future CF(he has lightning speed, and steals bases big time.He is faster i believe than even Michel Bourne who we traded to get;Lidge, that trade worked-out because Lidge was the man the was the key to our winning WS---i need check how Bourne is in CF for Braves this year but he is one those guys that once on base the pitcher is distracted..
Hope Papelbon slump will be brief, but just read this:)

"Papelbon said he told Thome in the on-deck circle that he would give him $5,000 if he hit a homer. Papelbon said he wrote the check in the clubhouse.
''That was a huge pickup by Jim Thome,'' Papelbon said. ''I couldn't be happier for anybody in the clubhouse.'' It was Thome's 13th walkoff in his career.

i assume Thome took the check as it would have been an insult if he didn't.

i haven't dawned on me that Thome and Manuel are huge personal friends, as Charlie managed him here and in Cleveland.

Lidge was released by Nationals--his career may over.

i have learned Relief Pitcher Gagne's unbeatable(it is viewd as record that will never be broken) of 86 saves without a failure is tainted as he was picked as the relief pitcher in the all-steroid team.

Going to see if MLB web-site has highlights of games played n Fox ONLY day. Like to see Thome walk-off HR>

We are for a day--out of last place, as Miami has collapsed into last place--they have done terribly in inter-league play.Later, Max
