Just a bit concerned

  • What the heck was that crap in the 9th last night? Isn't Mendoza supposed to be out best arm out of the pen?

    That game should have been a slam dunk, but instead we have to make a play at the plate (a great play by Manny and Nomar BTW) to win. What the heckus is going on?

    We may be 4-1, but it feels like we're 1-4. Anyone else worried that when we start playing 'real' teams... Ugh! I don't want to think about it, but the way the pen has been so far the offense is going to have to carry the load.

    Who would have thought that one time thru the rotation (considering the schedule) the only game we didn't win was the one Pedro pitched. Hmmmm, that sounds earily familiar. Pedro goes today, hopefully he can either go the full 9, or the offense puts up 9 or 10 for the pen.
