    Watching a little of the replay of the game, what's with the camera shooting through the net?

    They were trying to show the batters view and what, if anything, may be interfering with it then I think. They were at one point.

    I wasn't overly impressed w/ the new Stadium. Maybe it's b/c I was attached to the old one but I like the new one but it wasn't as great as it has been made out to be. I'll be at CitiField today to compare. Below are some pics:

    Maybe Burnett will end up being the steal of this year's free agency. He is looking terrific.

    We'll have to wait and see if it was just the wind gusts our area had or if the ball actually flies in right center. Ransom check swung a ground rule double on Friday.

    Have to say, the picture quality on that video board is obscene. It comes through beautifully in photographs, must be pretty awesome in person.

    It is absolutely amazing and seeing the Citifield board the next day there is just no comparison.

    I don't know guys, I haven't been there in-person yet, but I'm loving what I've seen of the new place. I'll probably always have a little part of me that misses the old House, but this new one is awesome. And like LTS said, that screen is gorgeous.

    You're the guy who brags about sucking out with a three-outer, aren't you?

    You want a "You're right" 17a? Fine, you're right, Wang won't make 30 starts. Big deal. If he pitches okay, he'll be a couple appearances short of 30, counting his bullpen work.

    You might want to worry more about your own pitching, like your ace who got lit up like the Rockefeller tree, or your own young guys who are on the DL.
