Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Mets at Marlins (9/21)

Last night went pretty well so let's do it again.  Uh, without that blown save part.

The Marlins starting pitcher is Scott Olsen.

The Mets have stitched together Pedro Martinez and will send him out to the hill.

Game time is 7:05 p.m.

Olsen is due a good start, his last one was about a month ago.  Scott normally feeds on adrenaline so he could be all hyped.  To be successful he has got to keep the ball in the yard.  Scott needs the keep the Marlins close, if not ahead.

Martinez returned to Mets on Sept. 3 and has pitched like his usual self since undergoing rotator cuff surgery.  The good news is he will be done before 100 pitches.  Just like last night, get him out of the game and beat up the bullpen.

The pregame show tonight on FSN will be performed from the Goodyear Blimp.  Yes, it's that time of the year.

Ichthyomancy is ready to spoil another one.
