didnt this happen last night too? or am i imagining things? it happens almost everytime Matt gets a start Is it that big of deal in a blowout? Getting Pagain some time isn't that bad of an idea. Murton has been in the pretty much everyday and playing well lately. I don't think him missing out on one AB is going to ruin him. Yeah, but this happens constantly. Compare how many times Jones gets switched out to Murton in a game like this.
Murton gets rewarded for his good game by being part of a double switch and coming out for Pagan. Novoa comes in and gets the last 2 outs in 3 pitches. Nice.
If Dempster came in tonight, would it be his 3rd appearance in as many games? Even if it is, I think he should come in and close it out. Long break coming up and he's been way too unsure these days...give him a game with a big lead.
Murton looking real good at the plate...thought it would figure that if he's coming out of his batting funk, Ronnie is plowing headfirst into one of his own.
I can't even quote the rest, it's too absurd. It involves realizing he was injured while getting up off a couch and another sneezing story. You'd think the team would have invested in anti-allergy medication for everyone after Sammy's bout with the cripplin'-sniffles.
