He's still young ... got called up for Double A ... he's got to locate his pitches better and change speeds against big league hitters.

Overall, it was so exciting .... Danah and I got to sit behind homeplate about 20 rows up .... WE HAD A BLAST!!!

Felipe said we'll be able to sit and grab a bite to eat in a couple of weeks when the season ends .... I'm looking forward to our meeting.

i was flipping back and forth from astos to cubs. he handled the guys good the 1st time through the line-up. he was facing a TOUGH team. at least he got his 1st start under his belt. let him know this cubbie fan is proud of him! oloroid
