I don’t eat beef, pork or fowl, and I don’t like smooth jazz. So, I’m sure this week’s feature of Will Downing will be a bit of a surprise. I do eat fish. I do like what Will Downing does in interpreting classic songs. Well, not all of his interpretations but enough that I can say without fear of contradiction or embarrassment, my man is in the Billy Eckstein tradition: deep baritone and a fondness...

... veteran leaders on the team. If I had to pick a few quickly it would probably be a guy like David Eckstein or Adrian Gonzalez . I obviously haven't been around the team as much as some of the other guys, but during Spring Training and my short time up in 08' I saw that these guys have a lot knowledge that they offer the other players.

... compares favorably to Marco Scutaro , who is a possible free agent target for the Sox, and David Eckstein , at least in terms of size and defensive skill set. His career UZR at second is 21.7 (7.4/150 games) and his Total Zone numbers are also strong (4.7 runs above average per year).

... issues. Only time will tell if those issues will play a part in her destiny,” says Ashley Eckstein, voice of Ahsoka. “Over the course of the Clone Wars so far, Ahsoka has spent most of her time with Anakin, and she is really beginning to emulate him. She is becoming more and more like her Master in every episode; we’ll see if that’s a good thing or a bad thing,” Ahsoka has found some balancing...

... not the only one who had bad luck, many hunters report seeing few deer this season and Ron Eckstein, a wildlife biologist for the DNR in Rhinelander says there’s a reason for this, “Overall the population is down.” Grenzer says hunters need to work with the DNR to get the deer numbers back up. So he started the “Save Wisconsin’s Deer Hunt” campaign in...

... shortstop. I mean, he’s that good. Can he create arm strength to make the throw? Listen, David Eckstein played short for what, 10 years, and David Eckstein and Shonda could throw somewhat similar. And I loved him.

... worms have hitched a ride. As you see in the clip, this doesn’t bode well for the Padawans: Ashley Eckstein , who voices Ahsoka, suggests that the Padawan’s loyalty to the clones repeats Anakin Skywalker’s well-known problems with attachment: “Due to Anakin’s teaching, I do feel that Ahsoka is developing similar attachment issues. Only time will tell if those issues will play a part in her...
