Wouldn't surprise me if Weathers goes out there again. He's done it before this year. Personally, I'd like to see Burton get a shot. I think Gosling closed out the extra inning game last week. Anybody but Coffey or Stanton.
Problem is Burton pitched just about 2 innings last night as well with about 35 or so pitches. He has been used a lot lately too, I would like to see him get a day off. You cross that bridge when you come to it, I'd like to see Livingston go all 9 today and not worry about it .
"In our sundown perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base', a certain game of ball. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms, the game of ball is glorious"
-Walt Whitman
Nice to assume that it will be a save situation. If the Reds lose you jinxed them
I would expect Weathers to go again. I would think he's used to pitching more innings since he's basically a setup man.
Griffey and Dunn closes today. No need for Weathers.
3- out save = Weathers
4+ out save = Screwed
