    8
    2 out
    Soriano up

    BTW, back in the 8th, Stubbs was double-switched in, with Heisey going to LF and Gomes exiting.

    Pen should be fresh regardless, Wood/Bray/Smith only ones to pitch today.

    Just what the team needed.

    OK. Different beliefs I guess. I think an inning saved today is more in the tank for October. I want these guys not only available but not gassed when the play-offs role around. Not really worrried about saving Fisher and Bray for St. Louis. I don't think they should have brought in Rhodes or anything. But if Fisher goes a couple today and they need the pen a lot tomorrow they have guys ready in AAA who may be better than a couple on the roster now anyway.
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
