    Josh James, that was a beautiful inning. Give us another inning.

    Keep walks to a min. Keep it close. Within a couple. Our offense is feeling a little something these days

    Who do we have left in the bullpen? I imagine Paredes and Pressly are unavailable.

    Nice to see James throw a scoreless inning, and that's two huge innings for Blake Taylor in this series. He came in with a man in scoring position in the 5th in Game 1 and allowed the score on the sac fly, but in both cases, he did his job, didn't allow an earned run and kept it close.

    Scrubb, Sneed, Garcia, Pressly has only thrown 26 so maybe he does throw today to put it away

    I bet Dusty goes with Javier to close if we can keep another 0 on the board in the 7th. Scrubb ready if James is wild.

    Its really surprising Dusty hasnt gone to Raley yet. That guy was always on speed dial.
