Am'n I reading correctly? den Dekker not replacing Young in center? den Dekker not replacing Young in left? den Dekker not replacing Young in center who in turn isn't sliding over to replace Young in left? Tejada not replacing Flores? Recker not replacing Teagarden? Campbell not replacing... SOMEBODY?!!! I need to replace my underpants!
I feel sleazy contemplating "Delta Club Access" too. Immediately invokes a strip club where street-level drug kingpins have their dancers entertain their suppliers in upstairs lounges.

Granderson's was just a straight steal attempt (would have helped had CYoung not swung through another pitch) and Wright was safe but then bounced off the base with his slide. Well, I'm whistling Wright.
Certainly not the moral victory I'm looking for, but Bartolo is probably your best bet if you want a fast game. Speeds things up during his at-bats, too.
Yes, well, I wasn't speaking of in the net. I was speaking about specific instances of trying to do too much to rescue a slumping team.. Murphy is certainly an asset and a half, in the net.
