Too bad they didn't give Waldron co-pitcher of the week.

Too bad they didn't give Waldron co-pitcher of the week.

To quote Dave Foley after Phil Hartman was snubbed of a posthumous acting award for News Radio: "What does a guy have to do to win?"

Granted, Phil Hartman was murdered by his wife. Waldron just goes out and deals.

Got to be happy with the way Cam has responded since making his way back into the line up. So happy he chose Nebraska over some of those other schools he was recruited to.

But his current injury situation is confusing...
He was out of the line up Sunday due to a 'groin', but he was seen Saturday barehanding a hit to 3rd which visibly affected his middle finger on his throwing hand and even had the trainer look at it. He later still batted in the game. Thinking he was okay but yet out the next day out due to a groin. Kids?!?!
