Having Brad Eldred healthy is fun

Remember when Brad Eldred played in 55 games and crushed 12 homers in 208 PAs? It was only 2005, but I recall that it was a pretty good time (though there was that whole .279 OBP to consider to go with those homers). Anyways Breldred homered for the second day in a row, this time off of Mike Mussina. The Pirates still lost and Jose Castillo went down with a foot injury that needs to be x-rayed tomorrow.

The good news from the article is that Xavier Nady is back in camp and working out and seems pretty optimistic that whatever's wrong with him isn't Crohn's disease. At this point in the year, that's the most important thing to come out of today.
