Once upon a time, back before my move to Bloguin, a quote adorned the top of this site. Many of you are likely familiar with it:

"Every season has its peaks and valleys.
What you have to try to do is eliminate the Grand Canyon."
--Andy Van Slyke
In the Canyon: 16 years and counting ...

Today? It's all about avoiding the Grand Canyon. Yovani Gallardo and Ian Snell took the mound at 1 and we're scoreless in the bottom of the first.
