According to Duncan, "You look at what the options are and what’s involved in the options, he’s the best guy to take the start." Yeesh, Dave/TLR/Mozeliak/Easter Bunny. Okay, I know, Boggs has been nothing but wild-as-sin as a major league pitcher. His BB rate has been over five as a ML-er. BUT...You KNOW Todd Wellemeyer is also wild, AND is also a HR machine, AND has an expiring contract. Why not send Boggs out there to finish off the season and leave Wellemeyer in the pen? Boggs may pitch better than Wellemeyer, and even if he doesn't the FO isn't left hemming and hawing over whether or not any youngsters can be ML starters in 2010. This logic makes me sick...

/end rant.

Not good.

Smoltz was DFA’d by Boston. I’d take him over Welly. It’d be nice not to get a loss every time Welly pitches.

Anyone > Welly

Forget Christmas in July... every day's a Holliday in St. Louis.

Note---Wellemeyer has a tender elbow...

…and as such Mitchell Boggs will get the start tonight instead. If he throws a no-hitter he’ll probably keep the #5 spot in the rotation. So that’s good…

VivaElBirdos...Scoring less, but more frequently since approximately 1903.
