Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Brewers at Marlins (5/7)

Milwaukee @ Florida
The NL East Leading Marlins (it is so good to type that again) are looking to secure the series win tonight.
The Hopper has never faced the Brew Crew before, but if he can get his sinker working and he keeps down in the zone, good things could happen. That is assuming, of course, the defense plans to do its part.
Bush is.....I must admit I don't know a lot about Bush. This will be his third career start in JRS. In 2006 he got shelled by the Fish but in 2007 he pitched very well. I believe this will be his first start since being recalled from Triple-A.
Ichthyomancy is up and running and is ready for the game. As always, Good Luck!

One question about yesterday’s scores. You have me with a +2 for my AAB plus I got a point for having Olsen so that would make 3 points yet I only got 2 in the table. Can you look into that for me?

Mbaamin
You’re AAB points should’ve been +1, not +2. That was a typo on my part and sincerely apologize for the confusion.

what are the odds of that.
I thought I was going to be the first to post and someone already put in the same exact number.
I’ll change mine to 10,601

OT question if I may?
What are the chances John Baker gets called up? Your catchers appear to be sucking….
(Curious because I went to school/played little league with Baker)
The A's colors are green and gold.

I’m back to a computer Craig so this will supplant my standing picks. Thanks!

Nice
Very impressed by Burke. Great outing.
Does anyone know what happened to Jake? I’m watching on computer and don’t know why he got pulled.
Also, time for Rabelo to get sent down. Treanor is better at the plate and is a veteran presence catching. Cut your losses and promote Baker, see what hes got.

Wow...
solid starts from both Andrew Miller and the Hopper….am I being overly enthusiastic to think that the Marlins might be developing a solid rotation?

So who’s ready to apologize for bashing him early this season??? Way to go Dan! Nice to see the team K’s drop down to 5 for a game too.
