    And just like that, Ender is sitting vs a RHP. Going to give Snit the benefit of the doubt that Ender needs a rest for some reason.

    Snit said yesterday when he rested Freeman that he was going to try and give everyone a day.

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Wasn't there a stat shown in the game thread last night that his defense had declined this year?

    We lost a game where Newk held someone to 2 runs - use his good defense after you score at least 3 times.

    I honestly have no idea. I haven't looked into any stats this season.

    What is better though. Ender versus a RHP or Duvall versus a RHP. I think Duvy is pretty awful too.

    I wouldn't stick with Duvall against RHP long term.

    Can’t really do that. He could have sat Ender for Hech against the lefty yesterday. Also Duvall in the lineup against a righty?

    Only the Padres have scored more than the Braves.

    Padres 72
    Braves 70
    Dodgers 70

    The problem is not scoring, but being more consistent in scoring.

    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.

    our "announcers" are for crap.

    Jerome said we saw Camargo at 2B last night. It was Culberson

    Skagg stumbled over Nick's name 2 times. Where is Kelsey??

    If fly balls are going to travel like that, are we in for a high scoring affair?
