An ok day for the ex Diamond Heels both in the Major Leagues as well as in the minors. Nothing spectacular to report, but also nothing bad, I guess the best thing to do is for you to check out this edition of “Heels in the League” (MLB) and be the judge. On a side note: tonight is the All Star game (on Fox), which I will be watching on and off. What I will be doing is working hard to get this (not so) daily post on track before the season restarts on Thursday. But for now enjoy this edition of “Heels in the League” (MLB) from July 6, 2009…
