I expect a high scoring game
Zambrano is rested, I hope Lou lit a fire under our players’ asses, and we are gonna score score score in this hot weather.

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
