Site Note: The servers were down during the time I normally write posts for the blog and I have to be at work incredibly early, so the Open Thread is it for today. Sorry about that.
Now onto the game.
The NL East Leading Marlins are in Milwaukee to play three against the Brewers.
Olsen, I'm not going to say much about Olsen, other than, he has historically pitched pretty well in Miller Park. And that the Brewers have some troubles with hitting lefties. Also, I'm sure the bullpen is glad to see him take the mound. Hopefully there are no jinxes in any of those sentences. But now that I think about, forget jinxes, Olsen's the man. Go get 'em kid.
Gallardo is making his second start of the season since returning from being under the scope on his knee. He pitched really well, as you can tell from his stats, in his first outing back. This will be Gallardo's first start ever against the Marlins.
Ichthyomancy is a little different when the Fish are in Milwaukee, besides picking the attendance, player of the game and the AAB pick, you also need to pick the winner of the Sausage Race. Your choices are: Bratwurst, Polish, Italian, Hot Dog or Chorizo and yes, the points do count. Last year when the Marlins played the Brewers over the weekend the Sausage Race web page updating guy went on a bender and didn't update the site until the following Monday. If that happens again, no worries, the points will be added to your score when he comes to.
Hopefully the server fixing guys have everything figured out and we can get Ichthyomancy back into gear. Good Luck!
