Gutierrez is feeling better after a bit of a scare last night. He started hyoerventilating after catching a ball and had to leave the game. He said nothing like that had ever happened to him before and was thankful that he was feeling better today. Daren Brown is hoping that with the off day tomorrow they can get him back Friday in Anaheim.

Not a lot of news but it was an interesting clubhouse before the game today. Some guys were on their computers putting their rosters together for the fantasy football league. Chris Woodward had his laptop open but he was working on homework. Woodward is working towards a Business Management degree and was finishing a statistics assignment before the game. It was the first time I have seen a correlation coefficient in a clubhouse.

With all that seriousness in one corner Felix was up to no good in another. Felix apparently gets bored on his non start days. The clubbie here told me that he was helping pass out the laundry last night then today was working in the kitchen. Apparently he made Jason Vargas's lunch. A stir fry if you were wondering. His work is never done. Hey, if he doesn't get the Cy Young then maybe he can go on Top Chef.

On a related note, a few of you have asked who will vote for the Cy Young. Two voters from each chapter of the BWAA. From Seattle that will be Larry Stone of the Seattle Times and Kirby Arnold of the Everett Hearld.

They are about to play ball. Let's hope they didn't use up this weeks runs last night!
