I guess you could call me the resident female at RR. It's a tough job, but someone has to pick up after all these slobs ;) Just kidding. When I'm not busy making non-important comments in the game threads or working on BOD posts, I'm out at the ballpark watching my boys in blue. At least, when I can make my way up from Warrensburg I am.

New Rule: You don't post Ks for your pitcher when he gives up more homers than strike outs. Please, for God's sake take it down BEFORE it gets to the 9th inning. We don't need an homage to his brilliant cookie tossing performance.
Pat Venditte: Switch Pitcher
This kid is a switch pitcher in the Yankee farm system. That's so...crazy. I don't even have words for it.

This is a special edition BOD in that I have a bit of a problem. My totals are very skewed! I have players such as Callaspo and Crisp that have been freaking BOSS all season but are lagging in points. I want to make sure that players that are doing well day to day get a little love. So What I'm going to do is give you a chance to vote on players you think have contributed over the past 1/6th (roughly) of the season. So leave a comment with that players name in the subject, and if you want to vote, reply to THAT comment with something like +1 or second or third or what have you. Try not to let the May games affect you but if they do, so be it!
The player with the most points will get...oh, 10 BOD points, second place will get 7 BOD points, and third place will get 5 BOD points. If there are other players who have multiple votes but not enough for placing, I will award them 1-3 BOD points, depending on the number of votes for them.
This new segment? We're gonna call it the BOD Monthly Socialism Experiment. Because I feel a little like Stalin right now, minus the 'stache and the killing of millions. Either that or I feel like Bowser when he gets all badass in the last five turns of a Mario Party game.

Whoo doggy. WIth the help of some fellow RR readers, I have finally worked up the courage to play catch up. Just realize that some of these games will not get a SK, and that's fine. Too much love is a bad thing at times.
Now all I have left to do is update that damn list of points! I really need to learn how to use excel to make my life easier!

Okay, so I'm getting this out of the way now. And we're going to get April up and then I'm going to do tonight's game. Because God only knows how much I need a distraction from stupid men right now.

Major bummer that I don't have two of these. I was hoping for a double post, which is why this is so tardy. Add in homework, driving, and meetings and well...yes :) But we're discussing a gem of a game that I am particularly proud of and think would be akin to the DDJ walk off homer from last year in terms of its importance to the direction of our team and where this franchise will be heading in the next few months/years.
