    I agree whole heartedly. Narron spends too much time trying to outsmart himself IMO.

    It never ends. And we wonder why we don't score runs. Of course, now that I've said that, we'll score 10. In spite of the batting order.

    So with Cormier gone, do we know if Salmon made it to Pittsburgh or are we six in the bullpen tonight?

    This went down last night, so I assume he made it there.

    It took a while to swim all the way up the Ohio from Louisville, but he's there; let's hope he doesn't lay any eggs on the field though.

    Just saying that they have had trouble getting guys to GABP from Louisville and that is only an 1.5 hour car trip. This should have involved a plane, so who knows?
