Leiter has had 5 starts

2 have been brutal, three have been very good. If he even makes half his starts 2 runs or fewer, he is worth putting out there every 5 games – who wouldn’t want a 5th starter who goes .500?

Duque vs. Moose–it will be 9:30pm in the third inning.

Most fights start after the SP has at least 100 pitches. Moose will be in the hot tub when the sparks start to fly. Besides, if I had to pick one, I would say it would be Tanyon or Embree to stick up for the team before one of the SP.

Yeah, the scrubs & expendible players are usually the more vocal ones, the first ones into the fray.

Duque’s starting tonight, so I may make my way down to the Stadium tonight….

I say El Duque will start it by throwing at Posada.

//Yeah, and Mussina can get dropped on his shoulder, knocking him out for the rest of the season…//

No, I’m not sold on Leiter either, but who is going to pitch for our very fragile team? Sounds like Pavano is out, and Johnson will miss his next start.

That comment from Rodriguez about needing 6 runs a game (or whatever he said) will prove prophetic.

Up next, the very annoying Ozzie Guillen. Call me crazy, but, I’m expecting at least one benching clearing brawl in this series. And, you know what? That’s not always a bad thing to happen to a team in a race for first.
