Light blogging this weekend

I will be light blogging this weekend mainly because of two Cardinal games on television, work, and academic priorities.

So guess who pitches for the Mets this Tuesday when the Nationals open RFK Stadium? None other than Pedro Martinez. I expect there to be some booing when he is introduced to the crowd. I watched last night's ESPN game while switching back and forth between that and the Reds game (I'd much rather watch the Cardinals). One of the times I flipped over was when Sean Casey had his first at bat since being traded away from the Reds. He had a nice standing ovation, unlike whenever Scott Rolen returns to Philadelphia.

Former VA Gov. Mark Warner visits Missouri this weekend. I hope he isn't having any activities during today's game or tomorrow's afternoon game.

Here's a preview of today's UK-Florida baseball game at Cliff Hagan Stadium. Today's game is on FSN South.

Evan Bayh has introduced some legislation dealing with workers.

The folks at DraftMarkWarner are now an official PAC.

SNL now has some not so serious competition.

The EU has done some good by cutting off aid to the PA.

The Boston Red Sox are 2-1 as they face the Baltimore Orioles today. Matt Clement takes the start. Josh Beckett picked up the win yesterday as the Sox won 2-1.

I will be liveblogging today's Cardinal-Cubs game over at Redbirds Fun starting at 2 PM eastern.
