    No way Viz gets a hit here.

    Hopefully I'll be wrong tho.

    man if viz could just get on to move the batting order up a little that would be great.

    Viz stinks for us with the bat.

    That means Ausmus-Pitcher-Biggio due up for the 9th...if anyone gets on, there's Beltran. If we hadn't used Everett, we could've double switched Viz out. Is Bruntlett on the playoff roster?

    We still gotta get thru the top of their lineup now in the 8th... I'm guessing they'll stick with Wheeler, but he doesn't have sharp stuff today.

    We can't let Ausmus hit.

    Yes, Bruntlett is.

    WHY do we keep playing Viz? Has he done anything this postseason so far? Other than the double the other day, NOTHING stands out. Jesus, give me Everett

    That would be as good as Garner could get it. Hopefully, he'll go with that idea.

    Viz is giving us defense most of all, in these close games it has been very important. But in the DS he gave us some stick also.

    If either of the first two hitters gets on, we HAVE to bunt them over... even if its a guy on 1st with 1 out.

    They'll predictably walk Beltran, but it would give Bagwell and maybe Berkman just one more crack at Izzy.
