Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Diamondbacks at Marlins (6/29)
Arizona Diamondbacks at Florida Marlins, Jun 29, 2008 1:10 PM EDT
The Marlins going to try this win the series thing once again.
In Olsen's last three home starts he has only given up 3 ER total. Of course, he didn't win any of them either due to no run support or the bullpen blowing it. Ollie normally pitches well in day games which is interesting since he hates them. Maybe it's an anger channeling thing, who knows.
Haren has been on fire recently giving up only 1 ER in his last 14 innings pitched. Normally the key to beating a Haren start is to limit the Diamondbacks offense to next to nothing, get him out of the game and beat up the bullpen. However, if Haren isn't on and he is leaving his fast ball out over the plate he can be taken deep.
Ichthyomancy is ready for the usual Sunday day game. Best of Luck to You!

Olsen: QS, W (and a Captain Morgan endorsement for Haren)
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.
Did anyone notice
that when Haren pauses during his windup, he looks like he’s doing the “Got a little Captain in him” pose from the Captain Morgan’s commercials?
You missed my picks
lol

Greatest start to ESPN EVER
the audio quote the play right at the start of the intro, when they show the logo and before they give the first couple highlights that they’ll run over was Rich Waltz’s announcing the winning run coming in…
