Fontenot may be the least likely looking home run hitter. He packs a big punch with his 5-foot-8 physique. Where's the power come from?

Tom was great. Dave is good, too, but I’m disappointed with the writing now. Too much circular logic . . . lazy.

Follow up: Bulger says he doesn’t want to play for Linehan and Jackson and others say they don’t agree with the benching.
