So... who's this "Jason" guy that's in all the stories today?

The Merc hearts Jason (better than Barroids)

Kendall, properly low key about the blast, circled the bases warily as his teammates prepared to celebrate; when he approached the dugout, they surrounded him and just screamed and screamed.

"I think the team was a little more excited than I was," Kendall said dryly. "I got the college, rah-rah greeting."

But... but... Daddy, don't you love me?

"It's exciting, but it's a business we've been in for a while," the elder Kendall said. "It's not the first time. I'm just happy for him. We didn't win; that's the bottom line. That's how we go at it."

Also, John Ryan of the Merc reports this:  "Hearty congratulations to Jason Kendall, who, at his current pace of two home runs per Olympiad, should eclipse Hank Aaron on approximately Sept. 23, 3382. But he should pick up the pace once global warming sets in."

Meanwhile, Josh Suchon's blog gives a breakdown of possible callups to replace......  someone... who got hurt Tuesday...

Give me a minute, please...

Okay.

Here, scout.com dryly recaps last night's Rivercats-51s game, and Harden's & Loaiza's performances.  On a personal note, if anyone can find anything resembling at least an "almost official" notice of whether Harden will or will not be starting in Oakland on Sunday, please post soon... I couldn't find anything...

Now, (June) you (June) all (June) have (June) a (June) lovely (June) June (June) day.  :)
