FRIDAY PHOTO.

In tribute to #44, who is regrettably on the DL after a great season so far down in New Orleans.

While I was one of the fans who felt that Lastings Milledge got a bad rap last year, I was also one of the fans that wasn’t particularly fond of some of the attitude I saw displayed (and I don’t mean the hand-slapping, either). But seeing him in Spring Training was like seeing a brand-new guy out there. In a funny story related to us by someone who works at Tradition Field (but will remain nameless), apparently Willie told Milledge to get a haircut. Overnight the dreadlocks vanished and Mr. Milledge became Mr. Clean-cut. Get well soon, buddy, you may be back up here sooner than you think.
