Man, I have to give the Brewers all the props in the world for playing the Padres hard this series. It's too bad they missed out on the playoffs; it would be really good for baseball if the whole NL playoffs was fresh teams.
The early word is that Hurdle likes Fogg's veteran experience. But who else could he start? You can't use Jeff Francis on two days' rest and the Rockies don't have anybody else worth moving up.
The wild card choice would be somebody like Taylor Buchholz, but it'll never happen. Never.
Dodger fans are always welcome to count their chickens in the Bad Altitude chat room so long as Ned Colletti, Jeff Kent and Bill Plaschke continue to run their organization.
You know, it may be about time we give this Diamondbacks team their due. Despite their weird run differential, it has to be said that their approach keeps them in every game. They're like a hydra.
This is far out. Not that it's any consolation, but in my year of being wrong about everything, the Rockies finally did what I always said they had to do and played (near-) .500 ball on the road, 39-42. Still, I am very glad the game tomorrow is in Colorado. We are trying to get more information about whether it's a day game or night game and where it'll be on TV (ESPN? TBS?)

Go Rocks!
The game is on TBS at TBA.
Go Rox! Even though I'm still kind of pissed about that series you took from us. But it all worked out, so no hard feelings.
Will be rooting for you tomorrow.
I assume it will actually be Johnny Wholestaff. We might even see Elmer Dessens!
