What’s Black And Orange And Has Some Problems?

1.  Swept by Astros.   Bad.

2.   Maine on DL.   Very bad.   Jump on my Jon Niese bandwagon now.

3.   Wagner hurting enough that they brought up the closer from AA.   I like my home grown talent, but an August pennant race is not the time to lose the closer. 

A Niese win, Kunz save and a Daniel Murphy hit?  Not really the plan was it, but I’d rather lose with these guys then win with someone like Manny Ramirez or Four Inning Pedro (you know, the guy that ran out on his championship team five minutes after the parade) or Tom Cylon Glavine of the Braves.
