    Don't know why Carpenter wasn't just pumping that fastball in there

    not that it matters, but why isnt norris hitting instead of happ? righty/lefty isn't mandatory, mills. norris is a much better (relatively, obviously) hitter.

    So... Mills either had to leave Carpenter in, or subject everyone to A-bad and/or Lyon. Seems like a lose-lose to me.

    Better team won. This team is inconsistent, but I'm glad to see that they aren't the Astros of last year.

    Might as well even give Carpenter a chance to bat. A former catcher must have a better chance to get a hit than Happ.

    But like you said, not it it would matter a whole lot.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to juicystream again.

    Ugh, someone teach Castro how to bunt.

    Nice bounce back game for Schafer.

    also funny that ozzie called him immature. and he didn't say squat about hitting Altuve in the first game. If you're going to dish it, you have to be able to take it.

    But man, the marlins have a nice pitching staff. :eek:
