McLovin I'll miss Duke. He is one of my favorite Mets. Unfortunately he'll probably go all Brian Jordan circa 2001 on us in September though and I'll probably hate him for it. -

... According to the Washington Post, the Nationals have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with catcher Paul LoDuca, formerly of the New York Mets.

"Hey Jerky, my city's professional baseball club can beat up your city's professional baseball club. How do you like them apples?"

Got that? OK, so who won the catching sweepstakes this off season? ...
