Nick of Time
Nick Johnson received good reviews today:
Nick Johnson delighted onlookers, including the manager and GM, with a solid batting-practice session (Jim Bowden's assessment: "Phenomenal"), then said afterwards his leg feels great and he fully expects to be in the lineup when exhibition games begin at the end of the month. According to Bowden, the difference between seeing Johnson take BP today, versus seeing him last September (which was only a year after breaking his femur), was, "Night and day. Not even close."
Nick's a favorite of mine. Not only do I like his plate discipline, but he looks like Babe Ruth.

What an ugly injury, glad to see him back on the field.
