Okay time to move on... How does stack up for games 3-5? We have Roy O going game 3 which I feel very confident about...He is an absolute no bullshit kind of guy and I can't think of anyone I'd rather have pitching Tuesday. Then Backe on Wednesday and then what's the game plan for Thursday? Will it be Clemens? That's what I'm worried about. I just don't know what will be able to get out of a possible Wandy start. His control is really nerveracking. I know he didn't let any of the walks hurt him but he had 5 of them in game 1! Thoughts...

i feel great about oswalt..and pretty good about backe..but beyond that, i dont know..if we did have to start wandy, i would have someone going in the bullpen at the absolute first sign of trouble..i think we all know if clemens doesnt make that start, the majority of the bullpen, if not all of it will be used..im trying to have the mindset that roger will be ready to go by game 5

We need Roy to go the distance or at least 8 with games Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

ehhh..i dont know about that..depends on the score..if we're up by a few, i think its important to get wheeler, qualls, and yes, lidge back in there so they can climb back on the horse they were just thrown off of

Right now I am beyond angry. I have hit many pillows, thrown things, etc. but I will be at Game 4. It had better not be the fucking sweeper for those ghetto-ass gangster motherfuckers. That is all I can possibly type right now, I am so mad. I have not been this mad in years. YEARS. MOTHERFUCKING WHITE SUX!!!! ARRRRHHHHHHHHH! GOING TO BED!! MY GOD I HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry,
Astrobabe

Chin up...Tonight was a heartbreaker, but we have Roy-O the Savior on the mound for Game 3. He has no heart to be broken--he's a methodical, exacting pitching machine. He has no emotions, he has no pity. And there's no one I'd rather have on our side more.

These have been great games. Sure, they didn't go our way, but think about it--this is the World Series! My deepest concern is how Lidge will handle this--I'm sure he'll be fine, but 2 HRs in his last 2 outings can't be good for the ol' confidence meter. But he helped get us here, and he'll be ready to be the hero again before it's all over.
