Excellent News!

Way to go AJ

Huaah! Here's hoping he stays on that roll at AAA and beyond!

Wha? When did this happen??

Went shopping after work, MA, and probably looked like I had just come from Happy Hour --- me, Publix, and a silly grin on my face!

As our fearless leader would have said,

WHOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!(or something to that effect)

Major kudos to AJ.

Congrats to AJ. WTG. I'll be watching and enjoying.

Must be nice for mom and dad too.

ATTABOY, AJ...ATTAGIRL "DOT."

Outstanding!!!

Congrats to AJ and still keeping an eye on him....

YEAH AJ!!! Waving and Cheering as you pass by us folks here in West TN

on your way to AAA!!!

closer to FBMOM and Cali-forn-i-A

When you root for a webster
Some will call you sappy.

But I'll always root for my webster Shappi

He's not my son - and he's not my Pappy
But when he gets that call - we'll all be happy.

Dont need a Cappucino - no Latte - and no Frappe

Just want to see him in the bigs - Mr. A.J.Shappi

Go AJ - GO!!!

its,
that is pretty darn good and adds a totally new dimension to the HSBBW!!
Is that poetry? or rap?

Is this out on video yet? We could post the AJ Shappi Fan Club theme song on YouTube!

FBM, can it get any better? I'm so happy for A.J.

Never a doubt!!!

Another step to the show !!! Way to go !!!

Congratulations Mary Ann! Great news on moving up and moving close to home!

FBM do you remember this, who were the starting pitchers in the 2005 MWL All-Star game? I was at MILB going through the All-Star game sites and stumbled upon that. Again Congrats and go "AJ".

raiders ...

Yes, I well remember and was thrilled that we could actually watch the live action video stream since we couldn't be there for the festivities. And that is one reason we try to catch Sean's outings if they are shown locally.

Perhaps one day ... again?

It certainly wasn't pretty by any stretch ... first inning I could "see" from 200 miles away that he had the "do I really belong here" jitters. His dad was at the game and called to say he was so obviously nervous ... fast ball was no where near the strike zone ... and apparently, from the pitch sequence, not calling his own game (tonight's catcher has caught him before and AJ has always had to call his own game with this guy). But despite giving up two walks, a pop up, and a hit and having bases loaded with one out ... he escaped disaster and struck out the next two batters. I can breathe now.

Sounds like he's well on his way!!!! Congrats to all of you!

WHEWWWW!!!


Good to get that out of the way. He's going to do just great!

Outstanding---

Just heard the news. Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another move, Racab's son Marcos has joined the Syracuse Chiefs (AAA) of the Toronto Blue Jays.
