Evening Notes

I am watching Brian Bannister pitch for the Mets tonight against the Natspos.

He took a no-hitter into the sixth. It is fool's gold. He never touches 90 and evrything else looks bland.

What this will do is cause a stampede to the free agent pool to pick him up, and a giddiness at this weekend's drafts over the newest sleeper.

(As I type, Nick Johnson just hit a 3-run HR.)

I hope Randolph is smart enough to get the kid out now.

In the Orioles/Devil Rays game, Nick Markakis has walked three times in his first three ABs. I have no discomfort whatsoever in going into the teens for him.

Also of note, Tampa Bay used Jesus Colome in the 4th inning. Dan Micelli seems locked into the closer's role!
