Hate to nitpick, but was he trying to go outside corner on that last pitch?

 

No doubt in my mind. He's been throwing that back door slider for awhile. Looks like it'll be outside, but catches the corner. It's a good pitch, even though it doesn't break down very much.

 

I think he's trying to say that Marmol missed his spot by a wide margin if he was trying to go outside and hit the inside corner.

 

 

Either way, I think Marmol's MO has basically been that he's effectively wild. His stuff is so nasty that he generally doesn't have to hit spots all that well.

I'm talking about the one that ended up inside.

I won't criticize your avatar, but I will say every time I see it I think of Band of Brothers.

Not sure if anyone talked about this earlier in the game thread, but I heard on WGN 720 Pregame that Lou said that he will no longer lift Edmonds when he is up against a LHP. Does that worry anyone here? It makes me worry that Reed Johnson's days as a solid platoon partner are over.

 

yeah i heard that i figured he was talking about the current situation with soriano and johnson on the dl. could be wrong though.

That was a great series, but I had a hard time taking the guy from Office Space seriously.

Thanks for the dressing recipes. Anyone have a good one for stuffed bell peppers?

 

I usually use a combination of ground eye of the round, cooked rice, black beans, and diced tomatoes.

Buster Olney on BBTN:

 

"If you had polled 100 scouts a month ago, 100 would have told you Jim Edmonds was done."

 

Glad we were all wrong about him, at least so far.
