Remember, no PBP in these threads and keep the chatter on topic (if it is about something other than this series, talk about it in another thread). 5-27 Shawn Chacon, RHP (1-0, 4.11) vs. Braden Looper, RHP (6-3, 4.34) 7:15 on FSN 5-28 Wandy Rodriguez, LHP (1-0, 2.31) vs. Adam Wainwright, RHP (4-2, 3.06) 7:15 on FSN 5-29 Roy Oswalt, RHP (4-4, 5.61) vs. Kyle Lohse, RHP (4-2, 4.26) 7:15 on FSN
Good to see Wandy's back which means Moehler or Sampson goes to the pen, which hopefully strengthens both areas.
Not just yet. They're giving Roy an extra day between starts...at least this time through. I think it will be Sampson that goes to the pen or to AAA. They brought up Cassell. No sense in having both Sampson and Cassell in the pen. Moehler has been very consistent since he's been starting. I wonder who goes when they make the roster move for Wandy. It's got to be one of Borkowski, Villarreal, Sampson, or Cassell.
Oh, and I don't think we should be too upset about Sunday's 15 runs we gave up. The Phillies have scored 27 in 11 innings against the Rockies lol
Looper drilling our hitters already! That looked intentional to me. You've got the pitcher spot coming up with 2 outs, and he hits Towles. Anyone else think that's a little suspicious?
terrible spot to get picked off ... you have a man on 2nd base so where was he going? now Chacon has to leadoff next inning and we could have started off with Bourn again. not a very smart move by towles there.
