why did we call up our best prospect only to see him rot on the bench?

if we needed an outfielder we could have just brought buck coats up.

I bolded them because they usually are not in the starting lineup.


Gotcha.

Re: Pie, I agree. I don't mind Ward getting the odd start, but he seems to hit better coming off the bench. For now, I'd prefer a Murton-Pie-Jones OF until Soriano comes back.

I second that, it gives us more speed with Pie and Murton has done surprisingly well lately.

I'm still suck at work. Not that I'd be able to watch the game anyways since stupid FOX is covering it.

Well if the Yankees/Tigers game ends early you may be able to watch the end of this game.
There also may be a few more delays in this game.

Cubs get out of the jam with a double play.
And a nice scoop by D Lee.
