I'm pretty sure

there’s a clause in his contract that says you can’t use the words “Theriot” and “Slugger” together with out the words “is not a” between them.

I thikn that I remember a double that he hit once this season

maybe 3 weeks ago. So, no. I think he’s still got his .300 SLG for a little bit. Maybe tomorrow night?

basically yea-

A lot of them are Russians, and they smoke a lot typically, so you might be right.
