Game Thread #149: Milwaukee (76-72) at Houston (65-84)
"You mean you can't take less. It's very easy to take more than nothing."
Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Yovani Gallardo goes up against Matt Albers, but the real news is that the Menchkins platoon is officially dead. In a move that demonstrates Ned Yost has entirely embraced the voodoo of "hot hand" lineup composition, Joltin' Joe Dillon appears in left field, bringing his lifetime .299/.322/.448 hitting line to the second spot in the lineup. That may be only 90 plate appearances, but they tell the whole story to Ned.
2B Rickie Weeks
LF Joe Dillon
3B Ryan Braun
1B Prince Fielder
CF Corey Hart
LF Gabe Gross
C Johnny Estrada
SS J.J. Hardy
RHP Yovani Gallardo
It makes you wonder....if there is no hot hand, who starts?

That homer by the way, frozen rope, I don't think Griffey even bothered to take a step.

by Brooks Kieschnick on Sep 17, 2007 9:17 PM CDT up reply actions
Well, that sucks for them
Hah
two runs down in the 7th
Hart hasn't been awful though
Apparently
All I could find was something about Lou P. crossing the line to make a switch before informing the ump.
Has anyone ever sat in the Gehl Club?
by hyattff2003 on Sep 17, 2007 9:22 PM CDT reply actions
Hey
I know he only threw 50 pitches in his last outing, and I know being healthy for the playoffs doesn't matter if we don't MAKE the playoffs, but really.... is this smart?
Ned thinks...
by dixieflatline on Sep 17, 2007 9:24 PM CDT up reply actions

So Linebrink for the 9th?
It better not be Shouse
Uh oh
