Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Cardinals at Marlins (8/14)
St. Louis Cardinals at Florida Marlins, Aug 14, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
The Marlins are looking to even the series tonight.
Olsen will be pitching on that bum ankle of his, so who knows what to expect. Assuming he is feeling good and if he can keep the ball in the park, he should be fine. But there are a lot of "ifs" in there.
Wellemeyer has been on fire of late, wouldn't you know. Look for the Fish to get a steady diet of change ups. The good news is that he has been known to give the long ball. He rarely goes much past the sixth, so the Marlins should be into the bullpen for 3+ innings.
Ichthyomancy can't even pretend it's ready, but will try. Best of Luck to You!
