A day game? E-mail

We've got a weirdly placed afternoon game today, which will feature Paul Maholm and Johnny Cueto on the mound. You'll note that the Reds moved their starter from last night's rainout back a day in the rotation, while the Pirates did not do the same for Jeff Karstens. Both LaRoches are back in today's lineup, while John Russell will be in the dugout with his arm in a sling thanks to surgery to relieve gout in his elbow. Do you really think any other teams have managers that need surgery for gout?

Is the sound working for the FSN broadcast? Or is it my slingbox?

We hear a lot about how Maholm has a third starter ceiling but what those scouts don't tell us is that they mean third starter on the 96 Braves.

Wow, Andy LaRoche's bad luck continues. He's made contact every AB, but he has yet to hit safely.

Yeah, gotta love Pirates Hate in the national media. I don't think they realize how poor pitching is league-wide. The Phils won the Series with a 45 year old #3 starter. I think Maholm is a lot better than that.

And raise your hand if you thought Brandon Moss would be the gem of the Jason Bay trade.

Mr. Glass kicked some ass.

He still can't field though.

Then again I expected him to topple over and then throw one into the dugout on his way to the ground.

So, progress.
