I am guessing this means that Sheff is still sick? Also have to wonder why Pagan is in over Tatis?

Does this suggest that Sheffield is still ‘sick?’ Interesting with Murph and Churchie back-to-back. This might have been one of the nights to experiment with the pitcher batting eighth.

Hey Dirty, do we want this to be the game thread? I was thinking maybe of posting both lineups and the pitching matchup. Something I wished the old blog did.

It does not matter. I was trying to find some good info on the starting pitcher matchups until I saw Manuel’s quote about no more LF for Murphy.

if ramon was playing..id agree
I want speed at 8th so if pagan starts an inning and gets on..he can potentially steal a base and get bunted to 3rd..livan is a really good bunter..

Yes, I had suggested both lineups at the old place, although honestly I don’t know how one gets the opposing lineup until close to gametime.
