Disappointing game... two straight extra inning games, our guys must be exhausted.

Still waiting for the day that Crosby becomes a backup...

Early game today... got our 1B ace on the hill. A win means a big momentum boost for us.

A much needed win and it's one that leaves my heart still pumping.

So how long dou guys see Harden being out?

I'd say 15 day DL for Harden... maybe get him for half the season. What would be great is for him to test the market this year, we resign him to a long term, cheap deal... and he miraculously gets healthy, all the time.

BTW... The Scutaro Staring SS brigade just got a huge boost tonight.... Trade Crosby for a middle reliever, or an upgrade (offensively) in the OF... get rid of Kielty and/or Stewart.

scutaro is terrible, so is crosby, but he's less terrible than scutaro. trading crosby would be absolutely silly with no one in the farm ready.

All we'd need is someone to play backup 2B/SS, which we have in Donnie Murphy and Antonio Perez.

That said.... Scutaro's D is better, his OBP is consistently better, average is better... only thing Crosby is better at is HR's and DL visits.
