Otis.... we is da sweeper, not the sweepee !! Shape up there !!

 

Sorry, I lost all faith in this team when we lost the series to the Rockies at Coors. ARam getting hurt didn't help my faith either. I want this team to win, but I no longer believe they can do it.

That very well could be. Need to run that one by Serena, though.

[Garwilly]

Sulley is listed at 1-0 this season, mustve been a spot start. Not sure on last years record though.

 

 

Edit: He is listed at 0-1 last season, and there were no undefeated's last year.

I spot started one game and I believe they won, which would make me 1-0

 

EDIT: Wrong. Hudson went the distance in a CG win over Zambrano, 4-2. My memory ain't what it orta be
