On the Heels of Oliver Perez's successful rehab outing, it's been announced that Ollie will make a start on Friday in Buffalo and if everything goes well, he could return to the team after that start.Ollie threw 73 pitches, through five shut out innings on two hits and one walk while striking out six. Perez threw 41 pitches for strikes and it appears he's as ready as he'll ever be to return. It will be interesting to see how Perez's used, will he replace someone in the rotation, work out of the pen or piggyback innings with another starter. "I'm really happy with what happened today," Perez said. "I'm excited to get [back to the majors] and be with my team, and try to help them and do what I have to do." source NY Post

The Way We'll Remember This One

Via Faith and Fear  |  June 29, 2009
Truth be told, I never had any use for "Friends." It just didn't work for me -- I found the characters dull or actually irritating, and so never cared what happened to them. But I did think the method for naming the shows -- each show is formally known as "The One With..." or "The One Where..." -- was clever. That's how we all describe episodes...
