Is a five run lead in the ninth enough for this bullpen?

Aren't they planning to use Thompson as a starter in place of Mulder's spot?

and when he yanks his glasses off, his eyes are on FIRE like that big thing in the Lord of the Rings!

getting pissed off coincides with meeting Pirates pitching.

I’m trying to watch the game on a free trial of MLB Mosaic, but whenever I alt-tab to read VEB, it keeps crashing on me. (64-bit Windows Vista) Anyone else having similar problems recently?

IZ2
Has been up in some important spots today and has been unproductive. He doesn’t need to be great on offense, but you would think the guy could at least hit a flyball.
I just watched Schumaker's catch on gameday highlights
that was unbelievable

Was that catch at the wall?
Gameday shows the out over the wall, but no one is saying anything about Ludwick robbing Nady of a HR, so I am confused…

About 2 feet from the top of the wall.
Ludwick caught it even with the top of the wall, but just in front of it.
Close to the wall
but well in play. A fan would be facing assault charges if he reached over to get it.
Gotcha thanks!

Speaking of wierd schedule...
did you see where the Tigers and Orioles start play on Thursday and the rest of the league starts on Friday? Leyland is madder than a wet hen, and I can’t say where as I blame him…when they asked Katy Feeney from the scheduling office about it, she said it was a “quirk in the computerized scheduling”...I guess it was the same “quirk” that caused the Cardinals to visit Detroit for three years running in interleague play…bad enough that you have these stupid unbalanced schedules…but I don’t see how you can tell a whole league they have 4 days off, except two teams, who have to come back a day early.
Ah, baseball in the Bud Selig era.
Big deal.
We’re playing on thursday, too. And seven other NL teams.
Buncha softies in the AL. Pitchers don’t want to bat for themselves, teams don’t want to play ball…
But having an unbalanced schedule and a wild card is stupid any way that you look at it
You can have one or the other, but having both doesn’t make any damn sense.
They say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger...

Morning, guys. Rough night in the City of Angels, so I slept in and missed the win, Have enjoyed . . .
the first half of the season. Would never have predicted such success – magnified by having to overcome all the injuries. I dedicate this excellence to those of us who support VEB.
