random Q, dont want to start a thread

what happens when Roberts comes back from the DL? does Freddie move to #4 like originally planned? or do we think Bochy is smart enough to use Roberts as a pinch hitter/runner?

by Azmanz on Apr 29, 2008 6:12 PM PDT reply actions  

Only in key, late-inning situations when the Giants are facing elimination in the NLCS.

Miller said it came on a change up that floated over the plate. I like that the Enchanter is working on that pitch, which can only make him more devastating in the long run. I recall Miller saying a couple of weeks ago that he had been reluctant to throw it.
