Hi Herb
One guy not listed who did the right thing yesterday was Danny Muno...as lead off hitter for Lost Wages, he was 0 for 2, but with 3 walks. This year and last, he has averaged a walk every 5.2 times up, so he has a real knack for getting on base. The little guy also has averaged a homer every 40 official at bats this year and last, which ain't shabby. Seems he'll be at least a good utility player in majors in the not-too-distant future.
