News and Notes
Pretty quiet week in terms of news and notes, but it has been the same story as this season. What am I going to do about the pitching? At this point, the lineup is fantastic and has depth, but on the bench and in AAA. Pitching on the other hand is rough, so I’m trying to decide if I should give up some depth, perhaps get rid of some over performing vets and replace them with the young up and comers? At this point in the save I sort of want to use the hand I’ve been dealt, rather than totally blowing it up. We’ll see how long that lasts...
Highlights
Keith Barrett pitched his best game of the season thus far with a stat line 6 5 1 1 0 8, and got his third win.
Lowlights
Giving up 22 to Philadelphia was downright embarrassing, despite the fact that they are a solid offensive team.
Looking Ahead
Draft is coming up in a couple of weeks
Canadian roadtrip
3 game series versus Calgary Huileurs
