So, definitely hindsight

but don’t you swap Ishikawa in there? I mean, Richie’s only in against LHP, who he hit at a .280/340/.530 clip here (or whereabouts). Unless there was a lefty in the pen (following on gameday), do you Ishikawa in a high-leverage situation?

Jonathan Sanchez. He's left-handed, like Barry Zito. His fastball breaks 80, unlike Zito.

wtf is this? Runz? For Matt Cain?

I made it to Fresno somehow. I missed the exit for highway 99 and had to spend the next hour figuring out where the fuck I was. What a freaking nightmare.

Here in Fresno, Jesus Guzman is not in the lineup. Matt Kinney gets the nod as the opening day starter with Pucetas going tomorrow. The Beavers are in town (heh) so we’ll see what few prospects the Padres have in Venable and Blanks.

And so far I see Connecticut en route to their first win of the season.
