I Got Nothing (So I'll Just Plug The Facebook Page Again)

Normally this is the time of the week when I start to stop caring about my 9-5 job and focus my remaining work-weekly energy to the blog.  Unfortunately for you people, that's not happening today.  It's a bit of a slow day in Yankeeland and I'm cutting out of work soon to head to a local brewery with my company's plant manager to presumably get hammered on the company's dime (SCORE!).

With that in mind, I will channel my inner Deadspin writer and leave you this offering of one of the best QOTSA songs ever that also happens to be one of the greatest song titles ever.

Oh, and the changes to the site I've talked about?  They're coming.  I promise.  In the mean time, check out the official AB4AR Facebook page and, if you're feeling extra nice, go ahead and "Like" it.

Russell Martin Will Crouch Behind The Plate Today

But will he be able to do it without injuring or re-aggravating anything?  That's the big question.

Odds on what happens today:

- Martin manages to catch his share of innings without discomfort- 25:1

- Martin manages to catch his share of innings without injury- 13:2

- Martin manages to catch his share of innings but re-aggravates his hip injury- 5:1

- Martin manages to catch his share of innings but re-aggravates his knee injury- 3:1

- Martin leaves the game early with some kind of injury/discomfort- 2:1

As you can tell, I'm not exactly optimistic about this today, especially considering he's wearing a protective brace and he's admittedly still not 100%.  In any case, I know Jesus Montero's future with the 25-man heading into the season has a lot riding on the outcome of Martin's catching debut today.
