[Why Not?]

Guthrie seems as strong right now as he's been throughout the game.

[The Rick]

You forgot the smiley face.... right?

Sure, let's go with that.

[JTrea81]

Now that's how to finish an inning! Another great outing by Guthrie...

[Birds08]

I think that's Brian Ebel, the assistant athletic trainer that you are referring to...

Ahh thank you sir. Seems he's always one of the first to congratulate a player when they return to the dugout.

[wickedwitch]

So how does the BP blow this one?

[RShack]

If Guthrie stays out of trouble, any complaints with Guthrie finishing the game?

Depends on whether he's showing signs of being tired.

I don't see it, but I'm not good at that...

Sooner or later, you want your top P to get some CG's, just on general principle...

[Miller192]

Guts has these guys afraid of the breaking ball. He disguises it well, they're late on 89 mph fastballs and they really haven't found an answer for his breaking ball.

[JTrea81]

My guess is that we see Walker for Figgins and Willits and then Bradford will face Vlad.

Wow. He's pitched really well tonight.

I vote no. He's at 109 now. No need to get abusive.

[Why Not?]

So how does the BP blow this one?

Several batters reach on catcher's interference and move around the basepaths on balks?

[The Rick]

After 109 pitches, I think Guthrie's night is done. Great outing, it's time for the BP to close this baby out.

Some insurance runs sure would be nice.

[RShack]

So how does the BP blow this one?

Negative waves.... negative waves...

Guts finishes 7 strong innings with a K. No way he comes back. Now at least he can't lose.

[J.D.]

I vote no. He's at 109 now. No need to get abusive.

I wouldn't mind them bring on Johnson to get to Sherrill. But I'd have no issues with allowing Guthrie to finish.

[The Rick]

You're probably right.

But Bradford against Vlad?

That sure does sound disastrous. Hopefully no one's on base.
