vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 I'm expecting the 'Stros to take 2 outta 3 at least. Tonite it's Wandy Rodriguez starting so either they'll win 8-7 or they'll lose 12-2, depending on how the offense is working. Tomorrow and Sunday they should take, though.

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 Pitching matchups for Phillies/Marlins. Friday: Jamie Moyer vs. Sergio Mitre (7pm) Saturday: Brett Myers (0-0) vs. Dontrelle Willis (1-0) (7pm) Sunday: Zach Segovia (MLB Debut) vs. Scott Olsen (1-0) (1pm) Substantial advantage today, substantial disadvantage Sunday, great matchup in between. If there is comfort Sunday, it's that we crushed Olsen in our last game against him last season, and that there isn't a book on Segovia yet. Baseball America rates Segovia 13th in the Phillies' farm system. He's a good command pitcher with an 88-92 mph fastball. Last year he completed his return from Tommy John surgery, going 16-6 between two levels and winning two games for the U.S. International team in the Olympic qualifiers.

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2007 Looking at the schedule, the decision to move Fox's Saturday broadcasts to 4pm ET is beneficial. It allows teams to run games in the 1pm slot and not run up against Fox broadcasts. This way we get more day games on weekends, the way it should be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, whoever heard of not going to a baseball game just because sitting outside in this weather is insanely stupid? Wimp. The winter weather is part of the charm. At least for football.

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2007 This Os game is plodding along at a pace that would make a sloth look like a damn gazelle. 6-2 Orioles though. If the Os need to play 4 hour games to win, then so be it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2007 Tonight Jon Lieber pitched rehab and performed reasonably well. Edgar Garcia started in Lakewood and pitched seven innings, giving up just one run. Kyle Drabek relieved and struck out the side, a great sign following his shaky 2006 debut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2007 The switch from Pat Gillick to Snitsky is going to take a LOT of getting used to. BJ Ryan just got his first blown save of the season. 2-run HR from Delmon Young and it's tied at 5 in the ninth, Rays still batting. Tampa Bay has scored all their runs on homers tonight.

It matters in fantasy baseball, when you're trying to get something out of what would be one of the worst pitchers on a person's team. I'd drop him now, he's gonna get rocked next time out.
