Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Marlins at Dodgers (7/8)

by craig on Jul 8, 2007 9:28 AM EDT in News and Rumors

The Marlins will try to sweep their way into the All-Star break.

The Marlins starting pitcher is Scott Olsen.

The Dodgers are rushing up Mark Hendrickson.

Game time is 4:10 p.m.

Olsen has won two of his last three decisions and the Marlins have won five of his last six starts. Unfortunately, lately, he keeps drawing the day game and Scott is most definitely a creature of the night.

Hendrickson has been a starter off and on this season, spending most of his time in the bullpen. The Dodgers staff is a bit depleted and he will be making his second start this month on three days rest. Hendrickson is a lefty.

It is the normal Sunday day game, albeit a little later than we are use to.

Here's today's Ichthyomancy pick table:

yahoo...

...doesn't seem to like gregg.

"Gregg continues to play with fire, but so far the Marlins haven't been burned by his shaky control. His K:BB ratio is 11:12 over his last 16 appearances."

Burned... yes, that's why he's 16 for 16 in save opportunities and our CL... and jorge julio has yet to get a save...
