Ouch!

While failing to fail in the month of July was bad, at least I got August off on the right ankle, er, foot.

Michael Bourn (sprained left ankle), [was] placed on the DL on Tuesday.

As his ankle attempts to heal, I will "call up" Nate McLouth of Pittsburgh. Sportsline claims he "doesn't produce enough" but they're simply looking at it the wrong way. Here's hoping that injury will give me some points.

Elsewhere, one of my pitchers, Scott Feldman, was sent to AA ("Son, we're just going to bypass AAA at this point"). As he toils in Tulsa, I'd like to call up Masumi Kuwata, also of Pittsburgh. Sportsline also states he's "not a great option."

And Chief, I'd like my team name to be called "Steve Howe's Pocket Mirror"
