[Halsey Hall]

May needs a good start, but gives up a homer in the first. 

[Halsey Hall]

Followed by a double and a triple.  Not looking good for Trevor. 

[Willihammer]

2B Sean-Rod

Is that a Sean invention?

[jokin]

Looks like Mike Pelfrey now has the chance tomorrow to be The Last Man Standing.

[Halsey Hall]

And now in the 3rd the Pirates have a hit of each variety so far this game.

[big dog]

And May gives up a single to start the 3rd.

 

He's thrown the dreaded Reverse Cycle!!  Homer, triple, double, single.

[Halsey Hall]

 

 

Looks like Mike Pelfrey now has the chance tomorrow to be The Last Man Standing.

Yes, and I'm pulling for him. 

[big dog]

 

Yes, and I'm pulling for him. 

Yeah, hopefully someone can fill that position through something other than attrition.  Let's get a strong start out of someone and hope he can build on it.

Mike Pelfrey not listed among upcoming probables: Santanta tomorow vs PHI, Nolasco on Sunday at BAL & Gibson on Monday at BOS.

 

Has something changed?

[Halsey Hall]

Hughes and Pelfrey both in minor league games?  I'll be sure to be there. 

[Halsey Hall]

Get the hook!  May's had it. 

[Halsey Hall]

On cue, Duensing to the rescue.

[jokin]

 

Get the hook!  May's had it. 

 

Out of 8 hits given up by May, 7 were XBH, including 2 HRs.  Only 2 Ks to go along with one BB.  

 

Not exactly seizing the opportunity.

Sigh.

Crap

[JB_Iowa]

I'm so glad tomorrow's game is on TV.

 

I keep telling myself I'll keep an eye on game day and then it's two hours later and the game is mostly over.

 

Sorry to see May's performance here.  I really thought he had gained the inside track.

Any chance the #5 SP sweepstakes could be re-opened?  J R Graham has earned a look-see, and let's recall Berrios and Meyer for another go at it.

Carnac sees May in Rochester this April.

I think Graham is a lock now. I wasn't sure he was going to make it but now I would be surprised if he didn't.
