Milton Gives Up 5 HR's to Single A Pirates!!!!
The ESPN announcers were sure: "Milton would normally start this game, but they know he's on the team, so they;re going to take a look at young Bobby Livingston"
And yet, there's this gem from today (per Fay): Eric Milton gave up four home runs in five ininngs to the Single-A Pirates. The wind was blowing out, but it was less than 100 mph. Ugh... and the ESPN guys just said they were sure Moller was going to make the team...

He was throwing batting practice... right?

Re: um... Milton is the 3rd starter?
Well, I believe he's actually the #4. I know that doesn't really make you feel any better though.

Truly sad thing is he will be in the rotation while Livingston may not be.

Re: Milton Gives Up 4 HR's to Single A Pirates!!!!
I'm guessing they're going to take a hard look at whether Milton is physically okay and try to find a way to disable him. I can't imagine that anyone's going to want him. Oy vey! Dan O'Brien sure messed us up with that signing.

Re: Milton Gives Up 4 HR's to Single A Pirates!!!!
From his comments to Fay and my own wishful thinking, I wonder if he may not be mulling retirement.

Let me check then I'll edit this, because quite honestly, I don't know. I always thought he had more knee problems after coming here. --------------------------- Yeah it was the year before he went to Philly... In Philly he posted this line.. Code:
14 6 4.75 34 34 0 0 0 0 201.0 196 110 106 43 75 161 3 0 8.78 1.93 3.36 7.21 1.35

This rotation is going to be pretty bad this year.
