wow i am shocked we got rbi's for Casey and Kotsey.

[theavrock]

Gotta say that the pinch-hitting, start once a week version of Kotsay isn't bad.

Agreed. I like him much better now.

And I will admit I was wrong. I thought that RRR would keep playing him even with Nyjer and GoGo

Leadoff errors are no good, no good at all. Especially to lead off hitters.

[dlk9s]

I wonder if the Happy Youngster has used his Marlins tickets yet.

[markedman5]

I guess we can stop the "Betancourt isn't really as bad as I thought" talk for awhile.......

Yep, but they aren't a surprise when the ball is hit to Yuni B. Someone should send Melvin this memo.

That was a bad throw by Betancourt, no doubt...but c'mon Prince! That was a routine stab that Prince and any other 1B should have had. Prince is displaying horrible defense lately.

Prince displays horrible defense on a pretty regular basis. He gets let off the hook way too much. A lot of our infielders would look way better without him at 1B.

Nice DP there. Wolf is sure working himself out of a lot of jams tonight.

[markedman5]

Nice turn Rickie!

[jason21nl]

that was a really nice double play right there

[ilovebeer]

A pitchers best friend a double play, nice

[PrinceEatMeat]

So how low does Nieves' batting average have to get before Melvin even considers replacing him with Rivera or Kottaras?

[ilovebeer]

cards 3 scrubs 0 bottom 1

[theavrock]

can you say hanger?

[jason21nl]

Holy crap Wolf, hang that curve a little more

[ilovebeer]

Randy does not have his good stuff this evening.

[Tailgat0r76]

Not to mention Wolfie has a higher slugging percentage...

 

They way I see it is Melvin's got very little leeway to get Rivera or Kotteras back up here, and a little under 2 months to find us a new SS.

[Tailgat0r76]

That slow curveball is cute, and it may get some oooh's and aaah's from the crowd -- but it's not working at all today.

[ilovebeer]

Randy will not last more than 5 innings tonight, get the bullpen up.

[Tailgat0r76]

Has it been mentioned yet that LaTroy isn't available today?

 

He just tweeted from his sons graduation

[theavrock]

why the heck was that throw not cut off

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

At least the pen is rested. 5 would be nice from Wolf...but that's looking optimistic.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Gonna need some good work from the pen tonight.

[markedman5]

Nice job wolf.......
