Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Marlins at Mets (7/9)

by craig on Jul 9, 2006 7:44 AM EDT in News and Rumors

The Marlins are going for the series win today. It's the last game before the All-Star break.

The starting pitcher for the Marlins is Scott Olsen. The Mets plan to send Tom Glavine to the mound.

Game time is 1:10 p.m.

Olsen is winless in his last three outings but has pitched well in those starts.

Glavine is Glavine. The fact that he pitches better at home and is left-handed should provide quite a challenge for the Marlins today.

Ichthyomancy is ready. It's a Sunday day game so be sure to get your picks in early.

Here's today's Ichthyomancy pick table:

Changing my standing pick please

Cabrera finally got to me today. I realize that he didn't start the problem perhaps, but his attitude is something that I just can't get behind. He was even involved in the trouble yesterday.

New standing pick:
Attendance: 26,000
Player: The Owl
AAB: Marlins starter goes > or = 8 innings

Changing the AAB because... "can't we all just get along?"

Baseball > Med School
