Just got logged on.
But I’ve been watching just in time to see Soto’s inside-the-park (actually a outside-the-park) homer. A few comments:
DLee must be tired. He sure doesn’t want to stand at the plate too long.
Lilly seems to have forgotten his curve and off-speed stuff. When they were hitting him, he was throwing almost nothing but the cheese. Still, he left with the lead.
Fabulous catch Jim Edmunds. I may have to start rooting for you.
Not fair to make Geo run all the way around. He almost tripped over his tongue on the way to home from 3rd.

Unfortunately
All Chuck Norris Jokes have been taken over by Bob Sanders. I like White Castle.

nicely done
and you didnt want Marmol to come in.

Think about the bigger picture here, bheidge.
He has more IP than any other reliever, except for Jon Lieber(I think). He needs rest to be effective for the rest of the season and (hopefully) postseason.
It’s not that I don’t want him to come in; pretty much the opposite. I want him in as much as possible, but as effective as possible as well.

i see your point
but when the game is close you have to use the best available. Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Hopefully this offense gives lou a chance to rest him down the stretch. If bringing him in means securing a victory in a close game, bring him in.

Really going to be worrying about it
when Marmol starts having arm problems. Lou is over using him. This is the crap Dusty got chased out of town for.

Actually I was wrong
He’s pitched more than Jon Lieber. 4.3 innings more, actually.
