Our offense really hasn't been that bad in spite of some key injuries. It's just the starting pitching that's destroying us, and with the possible exception of Buehrle who is roughly where we should expect him to be, they all seem to have something to play for.
Could be, hard to say. He entered in the 8th, then Seattle scored a few more runs to extend it to a 4 run lead. Dunno if they had people warming up or not for the 9th since I didn't watch it live.
Out of curiosity, does the message that a user edited a post only show up if someone had replied to the post? Not directing this at theblujay, but if there's ever this kind of controversy it would be good to make sure someone didn't edit their pick after the fact.
