[Harold Hutchison]

Well, we need to get one more out...

 

Time to finsih this.

[ja002h]

Nice job Tommy.

[Harold Hutchison]

Wes did fine over the first inning of that.

 

I think he's a decent setup guy or even a closer. Think David Weathers.

[kinglou52]

Time for a Branyan homer about now...Go Russ!!

[BMuch]

so should I go by...

nostrascoopas

or scoopadamus?

 

My preference would be scoopadumass.

[molitor fan]

My preference would be scoopadumass

 

I was going to say I just peed myself at that one, but that's not true, I just laughed real hard.

[mikevan1818]

Here comes Wessy!

[kinglou52]

I agree about Obermueller, hes only been pitching for a few years now so he was really still learning. He had a great spring and I'm expecting a big year from him.

 

here comes Helms...a surprisingly important AB for him

[squarepusher]

ROTO-MAG-ROOTER!

[ja002h]

Here's Wes's big shot..

[PeaveyFury]

Why is Magruder facing right handed pitchers?

 

Because he just ripped a double off a right handed pitcher, perhaps?

[950opsLHcatcher]

Holy crap, Wes Helms is playing. I forgot we had him.

[squarepusher]

Helms should dye his hair red, so he can officially be the red-headed stepchild.

[ja002h]

Helms may never see the light of day.

[steve11]

helms hit the puss outta that one.... i can see uke really callin it as it was.... wes hits a real screamer to the outfield.... caught.

[madtownbrew]

Did mlb.com take Wes Helm's picture after Ned informed him that he wouldn't be the starting 3B on opening day. Wow, he didn't look too happy in that picture. Funny stuff.

[batman]

ROTO-MAG-ROOTER!

 

That's great... this needs to become his official nickname.

Did Santos convert him?

[shelmark]

Wes hit one to deep second...just short of the track. I bet he is feeling a bit down right now. I still think he will get a significant number of at bats this year....just not sure what team it will be with. I think he will be gone soon for a relief pitcher just off Tommy John surgery.

[kinglou52]

Bring out the brooms, first sweep of the season!!

[950opsLHcatcher]

Yes, that was Yost's grand plan.

 

Everyone gets lucky sometimes.

[Harold Hutchison]

Two outs to go...

[steve11]

2 down . 1 more to go. clap clap clap clap

 

 

clap clap clap clap clap clap

[endaround]

That should bring Magruder's OPS as LHB all the way to 590.

[PeaveyFury]

Yes, that was Yost's grand plan.

Or perhaps because it was a smart idea to rest Brady with a 7-run lead since he's still hurting from getting hit in the foot?
