Major League Baseball Thread
Coastinmiller replied to PhishyBrewer's topic in Random, Random, Random
Even if the Phils get to a game 7, who's going to pitch then. Charlie didn't want to use Lee on 3 days rest, he damn sure isn't going to use him on 2. You can't give the ball back to Hamels, his season shold be done. Blanton was ok, but again only 3 days rest. Charlie is going to have to go with Happ, which is ok with me. BUT, you got to get to a game 7. Can soneone wake Howard up. -
