The Day in Baseball - 04/05/08

You know, I'm not going to be a weirdo and "liveblog" all day (whatever that really is), but I figured it'd be nice to have a place to post some thoughts as the day in baseball comes and goes.

So everyone please feel free to contribute and make another Locker Room post in future days if they like the idea.
