Because sometimes you have to read a dusty quote twice for it to sink in....

“…..despite Lincoln’s early-season struggles, it’s not like Baker needs a reminder of his skill level.”

“There’s history, and then there’s the recent,” Baker said. “The only way to return to history is to pitch recent.”

I thought Harang might get the first CG of the season. Josh Johnson just completed one for the Marlins. He gave up a run, though, so first SHO is still on the table.

This would be a wise move I think, but Dusty’s never really been known for getting someone warmed up “just in case.”

by Brendanukkah on Apr 12, 2009 3:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

Dusty's thinking is more along the lines of...

“Well, we had him warmed up, so we had to use him…”

Maybe Dusty had a lobotomy last night?

Not that I’d know anything about kidnapping, anesthetizing him, and switching his brain with a slightly more intelligent being (we hypothetically found a dead possum, only partial brain damage)

Yep.

Wilson caught a broken-bat looper on the edge of the infield grass, threw to second to first.

The runners broke on the play and were standing on the next bases, so were easy prey.
