Everyone on my team is too scared of Albert Belle to try any horseplay.

With three home runs in the first two games, I think everyone on #BRL's team is scared of him too.

Ok, looks like we've got no lineup changes for tomorrow's games. Let me know if this isn't the case.

#BRL hasn't checked in for a while. I hope he's ok.

Not really slugfests the first two games. On the road we go. Ugh.

It appears Bonds lost one in the lights in the 5th?

I'm good. Lots of shit yesterday. I will now look and see what I want my lineup to be for game 3. I'm still sticking with Kevin Brown as my starter.

Wow, that's crazy... how do you strike out 9 batters and still keep the pitch count so low?

And I thought the 93 pitch CG by Stroman on Monday was impressive. Although... he did manage to get a shutout.

Yay!


But guys, Im pretty sure playing guys out of the position they were in the season you selected is a bad thing- even if they played that position welll in other seasons. First Biggio, and Alex Gordon had 2 errors in this game.

I blame Chuck Koblauch. Batting leadoff, picks up a pair of hits and gets caught stealing both times.

Yeah I like Storman a lot. Good reflexes too.

Nice work, fellas. Good pen work (besides Dotel) and some clutching hitting from Votto. I will take it.

I will stick with the same lineup game 4 with Hampton on the hill.
