I'm gonna keep this short cuz I'm sick and want to go to a NyQuil-induced coma...
The good side is Delgado is hitting now as opposed to only the second half of the season. So the middle of the lineup is looking pretty good and it's always good to see the team rally late to make a game closer.
The bad news is this is yet another game where they needed a big hit and didn't get it. Granted it was Jake Peavy, but after scoring 3 runs in the first and getting runners in scoring position in the 3rd and 4th innings and pushing Peavy to a high pitch count...
You just have to capitalize. Maybe as the weeks move on, the bats will warm with the weather. Then again, if John Maine can't put together back to back quality starts and not even make it to the sixth inning with something left in the tank, we'll be in trouble.
Like I picked in the previous post, I think we're playing for the wild card this year but it's not gonna help falling far behind in the standings even though it's early.
Livan goes Friday in a weekend tilt with the Brew Crew. Only down side is my XM radio gives the home team broadcast, so I won't get to listen to Bob Uecker with the call.
Tragic.
