The first game was a loss. Rodriguez pitched alright but our hitting went blank. That shouldn't happen in Colorado. Rodriguez pitched well enough to win. Hammel hasn't had a history of pitching that well. It is like I said, I wouldn't want to be a starting pitcher for this bunch of hitters. They suck pretty consistantly.

Tonight we send our Cy Young contender, Brian Moehler, to the mound against the Rockies which assures us of evening this series.
Surely we have a kid in the minors who can outpitch this bum who deserves a shot at the majors.

Moehler isn't a bad starter. What Moehler is no good at is relief. I don't think he is worth it on the staff except when you don't have much like we do. We need someone who can spot start. He has had two fairly decent ones now. The thing I like about Moehler is nothing shakes him up. He doesn't have the greatest arm but he has the mind of a pitcher. He keeps after it. The guy might not make a bad pitching coach someday.

I think we have found a quality reliever in Wilton Lopez. I would like to see us dump Moehler and Sampson and use young guys.

paulino continues to impress. Right now the only starter sucking is Chandler's guy.

We really turned this into a good series. It is a pity we couldn't have sustained it with the Yankees. We don't have starting hitting let alone a decent designated hitter. National league teams are really handicapped when they play American league teams. I wish the designated hitter was abolished. I have never liked it.

I don't like the DH either.
