Most probable best case scenario...

Ichiro hits another solo shot?

Remember that Dave Cameron Fangraphs

Did GMZ take the week off or something?

Why hasn’t he put anyone on the DL and brought up Shelton and assorted others?

by Decatur on Apr 23, 2009 5:43 PM PDT up reply actions  

Theoretically all 3 of them are "just about healthy"

and it’s not worth it to lose one of them for 15 days. But that damn “just about healthy” thing always seems to drag out. I bet at least one of them is still unavailable for our next game.
