5-3 Record 2-5
4.46 ERA 4.09

This weather is a pain in my ass.

Also, not real stoked on Fahey being back, but I’ll be hoping for the best there.

Hi all

Looks like bad Danny again.

Can someone PLEASE tell me why the hell Aubrey Huff isn’t playing tonight? That is some bullshit. I guess because the starter is a lefty? Aubrey hits everything these days.

because manages like a little league manager

Millar, Huff, and Mora are rotating so each player will have equal playing time.

Wolf, wolf, wolf.

by birdman on Jun 27, 2008 8:35 PM EDT up reply actions  

Well, there's no DH

And at some point there is going to be a double switch with Mora getting pulled, and they would rather have Huff play at the end of the game than the beginning.

Thats my guess…

Also, with bad Danny on the mound

Its better to have Mora’s glove at 3B than Huff.

getting it to the FP – one of the mods has to move it. If a GD thread hasn’t posted within 5 minutes of the start of the game, one of the regular posters will usually throw something up.

You manage to get a hit by accident and then you get thrown out at 2nd?

5 MIGHT be a bit young

but probably won’t be a problem. The scary parts are telegraphed pretty well. The end fight scene is more comedy than scary. The 10 year old will LOVE KFP, and probably enjoy WALL*E, also. Really can’t go wrong with either.
