Did Flores play on Saturday? Seems odd that he played yesterday afternoon and tonight.I have an extra $100- kicking around and I thought about picking up MLB.tv, but after Friday and Saturday, I think I'll resist for now.
Nieves got a terrible start on Sat. - so the day game before the night game means EXTRA rest.
yeah nieves started saturday but contributed nothing whatsoever. he's 0-for-on the season and he's now making errors. we really need to get a new backup catcher as nieves isn't looking anything like the catcher of last year, instead he's playing like a AAAA retread bum. please get rid of him.
Isn't that why we got Bard?
I hardly think the offensive production of the backup catcher is a pressing concern right now. Defense is what we need from the backup, not one extra hit per week, and Nieves is solid behind the plate. From what I've heard, Bard is a terrible catcher.
Martis has been money...i expect that to continue in Philly. we'll own Blanton...he's a bum. i think there's a strong chance that Dukes activates beast mode big time tonight.
There's actually a strong chance Dukes gets demoted before tonight. He's been activating "punk" mode lately.
hahahahahaha i'm sure dukes will be back out there tonight. when harris/guzman come back i want to see cintron go down and not sure who the other should be. i want to see more of maxwell that's for sure.
It pains me to say it because I was buying into the Dukes hype (and really he'd been playing well), but the errors and the refusal to talk to the media makes me think, "here we go.....again...."
He seemed in good spirits yesterday in the dugout the couple of times I saw him in a shot. Joking around and stuff. I think he'll be fine. I'm expecting him to be back in the lineup today. If the poor play continues the next couple of days I'll be concerned but that Saturday game was all sorts of awful and I'm sure he was beyond embarassed by it.
he had our 2 lone RBIs. the dropped ball was embarrassing and deflating, but he bounced back nicely with the bat.

Did anyone notice that Johnson will not be batting second according to the unofficial line up. If that is true Acta should be fired on the spot. NJ is our most productive player and you don't mess unless it is broken. I don't care if Hernandez and Gonzalez are batting 7 & 8.
