Title: Jakes vs. Astros 3/23
Post by: Ron Brand on March 23, 2014, 01:04:31 pm
Williams getting hammered today, six runs through three on nine hits, three home runs. 6-0 Cardinals through 3.

Maybe Keuchel will make the rotation after all.

Man, the suckitude continues. Astros with no hits through five, Williams gives up three dingers in four innings.

Ford and Sparks are raving about Bass, who just worked around a Molina single in a scoreless inning. Say he's got great movement and downhill plane on his pitches, and has touched 97 this spring. If they keep him for the pen that would mean Harrell or Williams or Zeid are out, probably.

Sounds like someone that should get every opportunity. I would jettison at least one of Harrell/Williams in a heartbeat for someone with that arm.

McBrag tweeted that Williams made the team. No word on whether starting or relieving.

I bet that Harrell is the odd man out.
