3 Commments

  1. On the road. Salt Lake City. I am sure Grizz players/staff and Nats brass know about 30 year old burger joint called CROWN BURGER. cheeseburger and pastrami grilled to open any stubborn sinuses.
    Good, Luke, to see Antuna and Sundberg back. they could make Potomac even more interesting by late August.
    some Tiger just robbeda Nat of a tater.
    Maybe some Mexican near the old Crane Co. building later here…
    time to go blech after that burger.
    thoughts on Joe Ross yo-yo season so far anyone. ? Cane??

  2. The prospect rankings are gonna look reeeeeally different a month from now, I think. Pineda isn’t the only emerging prospect who has bombed this season.
