September 28, 200322 yr Author why is every game in the afternoon? Because the networks obviously think the Braves/Cubs series will attract a lot more viewers, so they put all their games in prime time. Its ridiculous that all of them are in the afternoon.

Its ridiculous that all of them are in the afternoon. As much as we don't want to admit it...it's true. Braves-Cubs WILL attract a lot more viewers. Still sucks, but I can't argue with their logic. I'd rather have the Fish-Giants game in SF at 10 PM myself, then I could actually watch more than 2 innings of the 1st game.
September 28, 200322 yr I dont see why we are pitching Dontrelle tomorrow when we could save him for game 2 or 3 but thats just me b*tchin, i always like having a lefty between your 2 big righties in the rotation...
September 28, 200322 yr I would prefer a 3 man rotation...but whatever. Whatever works works. Has Beckett ever pitched on three days rest? That's an honest question.
