The Dodgers could cripple the Cardinal bullpen. KC chased the starters early and forced the bullpen to cover innings. The Dodgers have a potent offense and if they knock out the starter early the number of innings forced on the bullpen could be destructive and wear out the arms. Somebody, may be forced to stay in one of those games where the starter gives up 10 runs to save the team.

Dodgers might be in the same boat kind of though. 2 of the last 3 games their starter has gone less than 5 innings. Yesterday their SP went 3.1 IP.

The Dodgers unlike the Cardinals can afford to buy a new boat.

Bert’s a helluva good coach.
The cheaters from up north have their second of two days of hearings before the NCAA Committee on Infractions, facing six Level 1 infractions and two Level 2, all while on probation.
Tomorrow is our fiftieth and a fitting end to their hearings.

I got 4 season tickets 13 rows up in upper deck right by the tunnel at between the 25-30 yard line for $400. The atmosphere was fantastic last year. Can't beat Big 10 Football and tailgates. Good luck to you, this year!

Thank you, very much. We start off home to Texas, so that will be a banger at noon. I remember listening to the Illini when they had Grabowski and that LINEBACKER.
