hill's done.

 

6 ip, 3 h, 1 er, 0 bb, 6 k's

 

and glendon rusch is in the rotation why....?

Probably because Hill has shown little mental toughness and focus while with the big league club and when Rusch is on he is on. And he has been on about 75% of his starts in the last two seasons.

 

That said, I don't think Rusch will be in the rotation all year. He will be replaced by somebody soon enough.

Bah, no replay. And Felix flied out to center.

 

Hopefully they'll archive the game so we can watch the grand slam tonight.

 

By the way, Ben Sheets is scheduled to make his last rehab start tomorrow against Iowa. He'll throw about 80-85 pitches. Hopefully that game will be on MiLB.tv, too.

 

They said on the MiLB.tv ad I saw that all AAA games would be available this season.

Fontenot with a PH HR.

 

Pie lines out to center.

Jon, I think you mistyped. You made it look like Pie actually made an out.

Same thing MLB.tv did with spring training. MiLB.tv is doing 500+ AAA games this season, but they don't say how many of any given team.

 

And Tim, I think I cursed him. Missed the grand slam and tuned in to see two outs.

And he has been on about 75% of his starts in the last two seasons.

 

 

yet somehow his numbers suck. weird.

Wow, 6-2 3.47 sucks? Last year, he had a period of about two months where he struggled, but then found it again at the end of the year. And prior to that two month period, he was really good. If you allow yourself to conclude that he fixed whatever was wrong, he can rightfully be expected to be a dependable starter someone who will give you a good to quality start much of time.

 

That's my argument for why over the last two seasons he has been on about 75% of the time and he has the good numbers to prove it. You just have to look at little deeper to find them. What's your argument that he sucks?

very weird ending to that inning. Nashville ties it as the ball was hit to Sing, he touched first for the 2nd out of the inning and then they got the 3rd out by getting the runner that was on 1st in a rundown. The runner at 3rd scored though, so it is 6-6 going to the bottom of the 9th.
