Friday night home games are the Lou Brown uniforms

6 Hours out from game time has to be a new managerial record for a lineup

Thx duce

Walker in the #2 hole, could be a good move if he keeps hitting and getting on base.

Headed down to the ballyard tonight, hope Pallante is sharp as the PHils have hit him hard.

Go Cards!

I love seeing Walker hitting 2nd!

I'd prefer competence over earliness

Ditto

And when WillyC returns to the lineup, he needs to be no higher than 5th and preferably 6th.

it's been known, but here's the press release:

RHP Roddery Muñoz has been recalled from Memphis (AAA).

RHP Chris Roycroft has been optioned to Memphis.

TX Duce!

of course what you haven't shown so far is the Phillies lineup.
not sure I WANT to see it, if you know what I mean

The move everyone (most everyone ) as been waiting for .. Contreras removed from 2nd spot .. Been wondering how long it would be til Oli moved Walker up from his 7th spot . Now we know .. it's today !

Well….it’s because Contreras isn’t playing today. I wouldn’t rule out Contreras out of the 2nd spot tomorrow just based off of today.

Haha!

at both the joke and the idea of competence from this manager.

Heard Oli's postgame explanation for why he removed Fedde after 6IP and 88 pitches the other day. Paraphrasing here but:

"Well we decided before the game we didn't want to push him more than 100 pitches and since he was already at 88, just thought it'd be easier to take him then."

First, this is the regular season and your BP is suspect because your burning through arms faster than Trump goes through tanning oil. Second, you've got a no-hitter going and it's a 0-0 game. Your pre-game outline should be more fluid in that situation. Third, EVERY SINGLE BATTER matters so even if you can just get through 1 or 2 hitters, that's less strain on your BP.

Finally, and this is and will always be Paint-By-Numbers Oli's weakess: you can NOT script out games beforehand and force the game to adapt to your script, if you want to win it's the OTHER WAY AROUND. Same thing he said in 22 against the Phils. "Everything went according to script until that last inning."

I seriously hate this F more than I ever thought it was possible to dislike a manager.
