Oh wow, look at what I found when searching the possible automatic additions in the new platform. I spent some time, very little to be exact, cruising a few of the SB Nation's baseball sites and found a couple who had this feature.
Now this causes a dilemma for me, one it obsoletes the normal pre-game post I usually do. (which maybe a bonus for you) and the other thing is I like doing the game open thread post.
But no matter the new technology, I'm going to give comment about the starters, at least for today.
However, before I do that, I just want to restate the situation in the proper way, the National League East leading Marlins are looking to secure the series win against the Astros tonight.
Miller will be trying out the new "Grip it and Rip it" strategy in tonight's game. Miller has control issues and it will be interesting to see how this plays out. And honestly, it can't be any worse than what he was doing before.
Backe is in his first year back from Tommy John surgery which means no one knows how well he will perform. The thing we do know is this: it is doubtful the Astros will let him throw over 100 pitches.
Ichthyomancy is ready to do it all again. So make your picks and if you haven't joined in the fun, there is no better time than now. Good Luck!
Oh, if you're looking for a quick down and dirty recap of last night's game, GameFish has you covered.
Well Now You're Just Showing Off...
