I wish I could think positively about our starting pitching tonight – and I’m trying really hard! – but I keep dreading that horrible ‘stache. Even if Pav kicks a bit of tail, you KNOW that is going to be a major portion of the discussion. Does that officially count as a team distraction? Does Carl Pavano/’stache = Kris Benson/Anna Benson as far as non-baseball controversy goes?
I don’t know.. I just don’t like it.

Yay!! Pavano DID kick serious tail!! (and yes, the convo was still about the darn ‘stache) And while there was lots of great hitting and fielding (Delmon, Punto, y’all should treat yourself to caribou or something), the very stellar performance of the mustachioed one has earned him today’s BOD.
