    Well that was a fun week.

    Great weekend. Astros Sweep, Rockets dominate at home, and Game of Thrones.

    And for me, Caps go up 2 games to none on Carolina and Tiger wins at Augusta. Great weekend, indeed!

    3 off days in 1 week should help. Osuna threw all of one pitch in the first game, and as I understand... its not just the warm-up/appearances itself that take a toll, but more the unclean innings/constant traffic innings (while pitching consecutive days) that really get you.

    My guess is they'll start participating in some non close games and these things "should" work themselves out (although they've had 2 games this year where it went from not close to closers required due to bad mop-up relief).

    Add Liverpool’s big win over chelsea, Tiger’s return to masters glory and incredible weather and it was a perfect Sunday.

    It's still there, "comes crashing down" is leading with 61%

    Yeah, I'm souring on Tucker. For help at catcher, he might already be on our 40-man. How about Stubbs? I'm high on him, love to see him get a shot in the bigs.

    Tucker is the 2nd worst hitter (OPS) and Whitley the 2nd worst pitcher (ERA) in Roundrock right now. WTF is going on over there?
