Ladies... Weekend
Good morning, gentleman. We trust that you are all well rested. This is a crazy weekend for us, as not only are we covering Deadspin, but about half of us are on the road visiting fine ballparks across this great land of ours.

Jobu Come, Take Fear From Bats
Fausto Carmona made sure that the only really compelling race in baseball stayed that way on Wednesday. What, Brewers-Cubs? Yankees-Red Sox? This is me yawning.
