The Senators won, this guy delivered the news that Felix should be fine, and I didn't wake up with the whooping cough. All in all, even with the frustrating loss, today could've been a whole hell of a lot worse.

At some point this is going to start being funny. That point isn't now.
This has been an embarrassingly busy week, but I'm hoping to get back to standard recaps tomorrow. Fortunately we're playing the Angels, and those games are always easy to write about. Will Francisco Rodriguez's bitterness towards Derek Zumsteg match Jose Guillen's desire to cut someone? Will the Mariners win all three games by such a comfortable margin that we never find out? Will Guillen actually show up and do something good? These are the kinds of questions we must ask, since with Miguel Batista on the mound, there sure as hell isn't any other reason to tune in.
