Where's The Game Thread?

by philofthenorth on May 4, 2008 1:07 PM EDT

Consider this the game thread- RR

It's 0900 out here and, like Frasier Crane, I'm listening. We got Gil today, while Cleveland counters with the Laffey Curve; can our boys survive yet another encounter with the dreaded Lefty Soft-Tosser? Can Gil throw strikes and keep it in the park.? Is this the new standard lineup (and why is Buck catching at this early hour after a night game?)? Is Olivo happy? Stay tuned to find out this and more.

Apparently most weren't ready for an early start

I probably disagree with you.

So John Bale broke his left hand punching a door

I think it’s guaranteed, but thee should be some kind of out for stupid, self-inflected injuries like this.

on an unrelated note

I wish I had the strength to break my hand by punching a door.

I think the worst for me would be bruised knuckles and a lot of whining.

Today is one of the few days

to justify starting him. He’s a career .333 hitter vs. Laffey. Time for a hit parade!!!
