Just Sayin'
Womack at least in the right place.
Go Gators!
Well Maybe..Harang might have a nice at bat
Go Gators!
Key to this game:
Work Carpenter. Make him throw a ton of pitches and get into the Cardinal bullpen. It's simple...Carpenter is a Cy Young winner, the Cards bullpen is weak. Get Carp out of the game after 6 and you have a chance to win this one.
EdE at cleanup against the defending Cy Young winner who just so happens to chew up RHBs?
Don't think I'd do that. If Narron was determined to put a RH bat there I'd suggest Kearns.
Today would also be a good day for Harang to regain his 2005 form.

Maybe we are showcasing Womack and trade Him, Kata , and Abad in a deal. Kata and Abad have been designated for assignment. Kata's time is getting close.
He's batting 4th with Hatteberg behind him. I hope he tears the cover off of the ball tonight, but that's a tough spot to be in.Originally Posted by M2
How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
Actually I much prefer EdE in there. He'll be motivated to prove something, and I don't imagine Carpenter has a great book on him.Originally Posted by M2

Frankly, I assume a 23-year-old kid like Encarnacion is motivated every night.Originally Posted by Falls City Beer
And Carpenter doesn't need much of a book for any RHB. He's got a .543 OPS against them over the past three years (.765 for LHBs).
