Maggard has continued to pick up the pace now that he's the everyday starter. Over the last 5 games, he was 9-for-23 (.391) with 2 HRs, and was hitting .272 on the year. And then ...

He slid into third and got dinged up. He's going to be sitting for a week, but at least it looks like he'll be staying off the DL. Good thing I'm deep in the OF.

Rode, meanwhile, is just 1-for-6 for Birmingham over the last 5 games. Looks like he was being used as a pinch runner or defensive replacement during that stretch. (He's fast, with 35 SBs for me during 1 1/2 years, but his defense is below average.)

And now my Saints are getting ready for a 3-game series against Rode and the Barons. Here's hoping he doesn't get any revenge against me. We're 20-13 since the All-Star break, but still trail the damn Nebraska Omahogs by 1 game with 44 to go.
