Justin Germano (0-2, 6.04 ERA) vs Mark Hendrickson (4-1, 3.68 ERA)


Game 2: Saturday, May 3rd, 2008 4:10 pm PDT

Jake Peavy (3-1, 2.09 ERA) vs Ricky Nolasco (1-2, 5.13 ERA)

Game 3: Sunday, May 4th, 2008 10:10 am PDT



Greg Maddux (2-2, 3.76 ERA) vs Andrew Miller (1-2, 9.12 ERA)

[DirtyKash]

L-W-W for me because Andrew Miller is possibly the worst pitcher in all of baseball, although I wouldn't be surprised by anything anymore, L-W-L and L-L-L are possible/probable. Too bad we couldn't get a Chris Young vs Mark Hendrickson battle of the 6'10 pitchers, that would have been interesting and intimidating.

I have a funny feeling guys.........and no its not cause I'm army crawling on the carpet sportin wood......but I think we sweep the fish right now......they quite possible are playing worse than us at this moment, and I think they guys took something away from Philly and we'll see it in Fla.....

W-W-W for me and a turning of the tides.......

I'm also saying this is the final approach for releasing JE and promoting Headley, and sliding Hairston to CF semi-perm

[love_that_reefer]

Hairston looked awful in the OF last night. I went L-W-L since the Marlins offense has been so good. Lots of thump in that lineup and even Miller can look good against the Pads. The Pads are just struggling too much right now to give them the benefit og the doubt.

[padrefanforever]

Hairston in LF has looked horrid........Hairston in CF has look outstanding.......and when Hairston plays LF he doesn't hit, when he plays CF he rakes.......go figure

[HollywoodLeo]

All I have to say is it's a good thing we really didn't give up much for Edmonds.

[padrefanforever]

6m and a player wasn't exactly cheap.......but I know what you're trying to get at.......personally I'd rather have Freese in SA right now

[JayDawg27]

I went W-W-W because Germano is due for a win and Maddux is do for #350.

[jacs]

Leave it to Greene to kill the rally

I would too, but at the same time he's not exactly a huge loss.

[realmofotalk]

Good grief, Lurch beat your boys in a quality start and upped his W-L record to 5-1. Fortunately for the Dodgers,the Marlins skipped his scheduled start in the third game for some rookie pitcher.

[jacs]

Yup, it is sad times right now.

[HollywoodLeo]

The irony is, all those overblown complaints everyone has continually made about the offense the past few years....is actually pretty true thus far this year.

[love_that_reefer]

Overblown comments about the offense? The Pads haven't had a good offense in a while.

I was more talking about the complaints in regards to the offense keeping the team from winning.

Up until this year that hasn't really been the case. (At least not until the playoffs.)

And as bad as the offense has been for the past few years, it's much worse this year.
