Desperate Houseflies: The Magazine

Feel free to pull out your trusty fly swatter and comment on what is posted here, realizing that this odd collection of writers may prove as difficult to kill as houseflies and are presumably just as pesky. “Desperate Houseflies” is a magazine that intends to publish weekly articles on subjects such as politics, literature, history, sports, photography, religion, and no telling what else. We’ll see what happens.

I'd go with Glavine as the SP. And Wright as the 3b. And it's a shame there was no room for Garciapara. Leading the league in hitting and probably a gold-glover at 1b. There is no justice. I'm not sure any Cardinal deserves to make the All Star team after the way they've played the last two weeks. Marquis has to be the worst 10 game winner in history.

And I'd still take Mussina as my SP in any game, I think. Even though Santana is great.

Sad to say, I really haven't kept up enough this season to know who's having a great season.
