In other NL Central news, the Dodgers are up 3-2 in the bottom of the 6th on the Brewers. Juan Pierre ended a Dodger threat in the top of the 6th inning with the bases loaded by grouding out, 4-6.

Floridas pounding Washington for 2nd day in row.

 

Who the heck is even pitching for the Nationals? John Patterson is the only person that I know is in their rotation.

Kevin Mench hits a 2-run HR off Randy Wolf and Milwaukee takes a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the 6th.

The horrible taste of Florida's win? What about the Cubs' loss? :?

 

I've come to expect Opening Day losses. And I wasn't being force fed the Cub loss on every sports channel around either. Everywhere I turn it's how wonderful Florida is.

 

Screw the Gators.

 

=D> Couldn't have said it better myself.

I don't know if this will make you feel any better, but Tenn was the only team in the tourney I did not want to see the Gators play.

Shawn Hill.

 

He was a decent prospect a few years ago, then ran into a wall of injuries and hasn't pitched much over the last few years. Did well in a limited number of starts last year in the majors, and with their extremely weak staff, won a spot in the rotation. Big time groundball guy with decent control. Imo he could put up decent numbers this year in RFK. Or he could suck.

You didn't have to worry. I felt like it was realistic for us to get to the Final Four, but no way we could beat Georgetown. I think we would have given ya'll an awful good fight in the title game though. :D

I should also add that he does not strike people out. Which doesn't bode well for his future. 5.57 k/9 in the minors means he better throw a ton of ground balls and have immaculate control.

Kip Wells looked fairly decent tonight. He has a wicked sort of fastball that starts in on lefties and scoots down and away to drop in for a strike. He had a good couple of years in the past and could be another guy who gets his career back on track in st. louis. Braden Looper will probably be brutal though.
