To put a recap on the game. Another great start for Bailey. I didn't see him versus the Cards but someone has finally simplified his windup which has enabled him to throw more strikes at will.
It's a shame he couldn't get the win here.

I agree, and not just because of tonight.
Weathers is best in the 6th and 7th innings. He can come in, throw strikes and hope that hitters get themselves out. He has been successful so far due to luck. That will even out as the season progresses, as we are starting to see.
Masset has shown he has the stuff to be a set up guy, to get that tough out when needed. He can get that K or pop up when he has to. If not Cordero, I want Masset facing the teams best hitters with the game on the line, not Weathers.

No chance imo. Ball was hit much too slow to get Bruce going the conventional way. Nix, not unlike many others on this club, is just not a very smart player. In no way however am I blaming this loss on Nix. Putrid ab's up and down the lineup and my favorite whipping boy WilyT wasn't even in the lineup!
