Someone mentioned that he might have done it to save arms for tomorrow because Cashner is pitching and might need some help. This makes sense.

That does make sense. He's anticipating needing more arms tomorrow. Let's hope he doesn't.

If this thing goes into extras, we're f**ed because we burned 3 pitchers for 3 outs. :roll:

Will we see Marmol in the 9th, or is 3 days in a row too many for Dusty LaQuade?

The Kerry Wood special. Load the bases and get out of it. This time no special favors from Colvin.

He's probably the best option. Who else do we have to close one out?

For sure. Some of this off the wall doubles we're seeing will be homeruns in a month or so.

Uhhh....why did Quade take Pena out for Reed Johnson? Unless Pena is hurt from that foul ball of his leg.
