Cueto and Volquez are rocks. Bailey is riding the merry go round. im not nearly as sold on him as i was two years ago.

thoughts?

I think Bailey will be a sound starting pitcher

He is only 22. Volquez took several attempts to make it in the big leagues.

Stormy Weather

Dont know why theres no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I aint together,
Keeps rainin all the time

Life is bare, gloom and misry everywhere
Stormy weather
Just cant get my poorself together,
Im weary all the time
So weary all the time
When he went away the blues walked in and met me.
If he stays away old rockin chair will get me.

All I do is pray the lord above will let me walk in the sun once more.
Cant go on, evry thing I had is gone
Stormy weather

Since my man and I aint together,
Keeps rainin all the time
