    Man, Jimmy's not running well at all right now. Hopefully by September he's at full speed.

    Also, SEVEN strikeouts in a row for Werth. Worst .290 hitter in the league right now.

    why did the marlins just intentinally walk gload if they were bringing a lefty in? man, I thought charlie was bad...even he wouldn't pull something like that

    Less than two outs, the only thing I can think of - as well as Gload's a little more inside-out with his swing. Other than that, I can only think they want Brown to prove himself.

    Welp, that'll take care of that. Man, this dude is fucking good.

    If I'm managing I make gload beat me there. how many ABs does he have vs lefties this year? gotta be less than 5.

    I'd never intentionally walk someone in the top of the 5th, but that's just me.

    yeah, I've always thought that rollins is the key to the phils lineup. when he's consistently on base, this offense is unstoppable. it doesn't matter who's hitting cleanup

    Ya think there's any chance they turn Singleton into a left fielder?

    I'm sure they'll give it a shot. Probably send him to winter ball to try something like that. I've never seen the guy play, so I have no idea what type of body he has

    You see that they shut Cosart down for rest of the year? Arm soreness...hopefully that's not serious

    Yeah, I saw that. I'm sure they don't wanna take any chance, and protect their investment.

    They were showing Singleton on this Phillies show during the delay. I'd say a Carlos Lee type, but of course not as fat.

    If Burrell can play LF, I'm assuming anyone can.

    Happ tonight...1 IP, 6 hits, 3 BBs, 1 K, 7 ER. I wonder if everyone crying about the trade last week still feels the same way

    I think he's been the only solid one. If they were gonna try someone else at closer, I'd go with him. But then again, if that happens, then we've got bigger problems.

    I can't wait for Sunday. We're having a huge tailgate in FDR in lieu of course the game, but also my buddy's birthday. It's gonna be a dirty, dirty Sabbath.

    nice. there's nothing better than prepping for a day like that. especially if you know you don't have to drive.

    I'll do some boozing tomorrow at the game, but I'm keeping it low key this weekend. Got WAYYYYYYY too drunk before, during, and after the petty concert last weekend. you know you've overdone things when you get a 2 day hangover
