Philly Wad Up?

It's obviously a precautionary measure.

One could say it's due to the extra innings that he pitched this year. We can only wait and see. I'm wondering how we'd do without him for a small portion of the year. Chan HO becomes our 4 and JA Happ would be our 5th? I would keep Happ in the 'pen for now to offset Romero's suspension.

Chan Ho pitching is not a good thing.

Chan Ho can still pitch 2 or 3 innings in the middle of a game, but he has never handled pressure that well. I don't see him as a regular starting pitcher. If you're behind in the middle of a game, and trying to stay close, then, for some reason, he does well. He's an odd one. He still has decent stuff(too bad he has head trouble.)

Your star player tweaked a hammy. Just a stunt to loaf in spring training?

Game action is a lil different than just working out.

Not like he EVER runs full speed anyway, right?

I'll just say I wouldn't be crushed if we instantly switched to allowing the D.H. in the N.L. I'd send Pierre away somewhere(still pay his salary if necessary,) and pick up Velez(from Frisco) to be our left fielder(and be available as an emergency 2nd baseman.) Pierre is a hard worker, but so are a lot of maids. He's like a low skilled hard-working maid with a chip on his shoulder. Dump him, or it's gunna be a chemistry deficit. Billingsley and Broxton are already chemistry deficits. Manny will never forget the fact that Billingsley didn't protect him in game 2 with you guys. It's never gunna be fully healed. Gunna flare up like any infection that is not fully destroyed.

Lol. Sounds like your talking about Jose Lima with that "flare up" talk.
If you recall, Kuroda reminded Victorino in game 3 what the Japanese think of Hawaii.
Guess who's starting opening day in SD. I got my ticket. Peavy v Kuroda.

As for game 2 and the piece on the mound.... http://deadspin.com/182933/brett-mye...fe-in-the-face
