    Markakis could go 5-5 with 5 homers (though it would be to my delight) and I'd still hate batting him fifth. FFS, Snit.

    Today's GDT will be a piggybacking team effort.

    McCann has called four great games. They've had a very good plan to work from.

    Lol, putting in Duvall for Joyce because of 2 ABs. We’re already at a disadvantage. Snit needs to be fired immediately.

    I think Acuna goes off this game. He’s gonna be extra pumped after that Cards loss and the taunting they did. If Folty has his head on straight tonight then I think we win. Have to jump on Flaherty early and get his pitch count up.

    It does improve outfield defense. And Folty is a flyball pitcher.

    So what would be a situation in this game where we could see Joyce pinch hit? From the look of it, it would have to only be for our starting pitcher. It would also not have to be a time they could counter with a lefty reliever.

    Once the thread is started, what does "piggy backing" have to do with the posters carrying on the thread. Doesn't make sense to me. nsacpi has started the thread and it will continue on to the end of the game.

    Nice start to GDT nsacpi!!
    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
