Dear Unstoppable Climate Changeups!,

What a turnaround!

-Marquis (winner!) allowed four hits over 7 2-3 innings.
-Penny (winner!) lowered his ERA to 2.33 while striking out eight and walking three.
-Zito (winner!) allowed one run while striking out eight batters in seven innings.
-Olsen (winner!) allowed two runs over seven innings.
-Mitre (should have been a winner!) left with a 5-3 lead...damn you Benitez.
-Wainwright (winner!) struck out seven, walked one in seven innings.
-Oswalt (winner!) allowed a run and five hits in six innings.
-Santana (loser!...but not while on my team).

Wow, guys...way to make a manager proud. Now keep it up!

Oh, and Oswalt, we are NOT the DLs anymore...please don't be hurt.

-The Very Proud Management

UPDATE: Penny (double winner!) is now 12-1!

I would just like to point out that this week, in Benchwarmers vs. Changeups:

- Cole Hamels (Benchwarmers)--who went 7.0 IP, 1 R, 2 H, 1 BB, and was backed by the best offense in the NL--lost 1-0 to Chris Young (Changeups), backed by one of the worse NL offenses.

- The next day, Tom Gorzelanny (making his Benchwarmer debut)--who went 7.0 IP, 2 R, 6 H, 2 BB--lost 1-2 to Roy Oswalt (Changeups).

Sheesh!

All it took was to take away the all-you-can-eat buffet and the reclineers from the DL. Good management move!

I would also like to point out that Zito hasn't struck out 8 in a game in almost a year (August 30, 2006--against the Red Sox, if you can believe it). And he has to do it this week?!

And this last comment is just to get the erased spam to finally stop erroneously showing up in the comments summary so I can finally reinstate it.
