He is feeling better. Sean Rooney caught for Peoria to give the catcher a rest. Some players have gone home due to various reasons. Phoenix clinched their division today so will play Saturday in the Championship Game.</p> Answers to previous questions: Chris Marrero was at today’s game but did not play. He is feeling better.

I guess I'm really curious to know whether the new hirees are well regarded throughout the industry or not. I'm a strong believer in Mike Rizzo, but it's easy to garner praise when you are replacing anything and anythone that has to do with Bowden. In other words, are Rizzo's hirings and firings really for the better or is it change for the sake of change and he really changed 4 quarters for a dollar?</p> Thanks Brian.

I’m trying to see if I can get a handle on it but it is going to take some time

How much of an impact will the departure of some scouts and execs to the Jays have on the Nats? Are their replacements equally if not more qualified.</p> Hi Brian.
