Was thinking earlier

I wonder if Yost is so pissed about the 1 hitter against Sabathia b/c he knows that MARQUIS threw a 5 hitter against them… doesn’t want CC to think he’s only 4 hits less than Marquis… fragile self esteem and all that.

Pinella is a genious

Not only did Z get some extra time off but so did Harden.

And while I dont often give him Credit Marquis pitched decently yesterday.

I think Harden is going to be the key to us down the stretch

Freaking Tejada

This luck is gonna even out as the game goes on

Your 2008 Missouri Tigers! #6 1-0 (0-0). Next up Saturday home vs. SEMO. We might drop 100 points on them.

Is Tejada considered scrappy?

They've made the least errors

I know thats NOT how you should measure defense, but that doesn’t stop people from doing it.

Tejada's best years are behind him.

He’s probably better suited to playing third at this point.

I thought he'd be at 3rd by now...

but still has the chops for SS evidently..

I don't mind it being used......

most of the time when a guy uses it, he tends to run like one himself. so I figure it all evens out.
