Throw a guy on short rest? You have to call up someone for a DH unless you get a well placed off day.

We have our work cut out for us now.

We should be able to get to this chump but I don't see McCalister holding these guys off the board.

Choo is looking good again... Maybe he just needed another child?

Seriously though, the birth of his child probably has his mind at ease once again.

They were going to have to call someone up at some point. I'm not sure they have any off days the rest of the year with all the rain outs they have had

god...i hope this is the last time we ever see Zack. those batting practice pitches down the middle are not a real good idea...even against seattle.

Just you. Unfortunately you can't just take out your starter after every bad inning. He was hoping to steal an inning or 2. Every manager does it.

Leyland did it...and if I am thinking right...they won that damn game.

So, are we now agreeing with what Footwedge has been saying for a LONG time?

As I have been listening to this game, I am thinking this is like a JV game after the varsity. Seattle taking advantage....Tribe not. Now we are back to just having our eye balls above the water.

Impossible. They have matched us all day. We just had last chance this morning.

Seriously, who would you throw?
Huff pitched on Saturday. You want to throw him TWO days rest???
Carmona yesterday
Masterson today
Jimenez Sunday

It would have to be Tomlin....then you are looking at every single starter pitching on 3 days rest for a start, as Tomlin wouldnt be able to go tomorrow so everyone is pushed up a day. That is a retarded idea.
