Wow

And to think he was a replacement for Thome...Ryan Howard is a monster. He jacked out so many balls into the river during Monday's home run derby that he has me looking forward to a decade of watching him. He is, after all, only 26.

I can't remember the last time I watched a home run derby since I haven't had ESPN in years, but this year, MLB.TV was kind enough to show it online. (And maybe they were last year, too, but I can't even remember what I had for lunch today, let alone last year's derby. Oh, wait, spinach salad. With eggs, carrots, and peas. Mediterranean vinigarette.) And yes, Big Papi's longballs were looooooooooooooooooooooong. He just didn't hit as many as Howard.
