[Sharp]

Ian Rodriguez?

[Upark25]

I like that Espinosa is leading off hopefully were getting a glimpse of the next 1-2-3 hitters in the lineup for the next 5-10 years.

[mitlen]

Ian Rodriguez?

I thought that was TomTerps' job.

[Sharp]

I thought that was TomTerps' job.

I'm new here, cut me some slack.

[Potomac Cannons]

I'd rather insert a Carl Crawford in the 3 spot with Zim 4.

By all means ... just bein' the resident smart a**.    I should have added the after my comment.

[cmdterps44]

Id like to see how this lineup works

[mitlen]

I like the look of 1-2-3 as well.

[Terpfan76]

I'm interested in seeing how this goes as well, but not for just one game, let's roll with this for the rest of the season and see how things go. Give Ramos a few starts as well.

Gaby is serving his suspension this weekend.  The lineup for the Flounders is:

Bonifacio 5
Morrison 7
Ramirez 6
Uggla 4
Helms 3
Stanton 9
Maybin 8
Davis 2
Sanabia 1

[Potomac Cannons]

Let's see if Lannan keeps this 4+/1 K/BB rate going.

[ronnynat]

Oh man, that eye is freakED up.

[Potomac Cannons]

Oh man, that eye is freakED up.

Can't believe Morrison traveled with the team.  The fact that he's playing is just insane.

[mitlen]

Can't believe Morrison traveled with the team.  The fact that he's playing is just insane.

Dibs would have called him out .... 

[mitlen]

Geeez they're growin' big baseball players.

[mitlen]

'nosa can run !!

[PANatsFan]

Let's see if Lannan keeps this 4+/1 K/BB rate going.

Doesn't look like it, does it? I was watching Dog Day Afternoon and missed the first pitch. What a great movie (don't spoil it, I didn't finish).

[mitlen]

Is that Dustin Hoffman?

[PC]

He should be ejected!

[Potomac Cannons]

I'll cut him some slack.  Grounder off Zim's glove, IBB to Hanley, fluke popup to right and 2 Ks.  Could have been much worse.

[PANatsFan]

Is that Dustin Hoffman?

Pacino. Damn it's intense so far.

[Nathan]

He should be ejected!

I thought it was automatic since the warned both teams before the game.

[ronnynat]

John Cazale was the man.

There's no penalty for being a craptastic pitcher.
