giant playoffs series since small steps
I won't say it's World Series or bust. We haven't been to the playoffs since 2000. We have to take those small steps before we take that giant leap.
absolutely experiment kid ok parents pot rite shocked sure telling view
I see many parents who still view this as a rite of passage, like they know their kid is going to experiment with pot just like they'll experiment with cigarettes. I'm telling you, it's absolutely not OK to think like that anymore. I'm pretty sure most of these parents would be shocked if they sampled some of the pot that's out there right now.

I don't think Pedro hit him intentionally. But if he did or didn't, we're his teammates, and we have his back. That's the way it's supposed to be.

He?s a lefty that was spotting well and throwing all three pitches for strikes. We have a pretty aggressive lineup, and a guy like that is going to give you problems because you can get yourself out. Just a lot of arms and legs coming at you.

He seems to be the one to always drop the hammer.
