The Dongers Club – June 4th (Early)

WEATHER

I am sure I will write about this in tomorrow’s Testi-Friday article, but the weather is really fucking good this weekend and into next week.  Combine that with schools closing around the country and the need to shut down the lockout talks and folks you know it’s time for some fucking explosive games.

Enjoy the offense.

Not a clear path here to finding two clean pitchers, but it is a 4 game slate, so what do you really expect?

It appears that for some reason the Red Sox are going to forego the opener for Bryan Bello despite the drastic splits differences in his results when he has to start the game versus coming in after someone has already set the table for him.  If he winds up pitching after someone, I like him.  If he doesn’t, I don’t.  It’s that simple folks.

So we simply go with Wheeler – day game – mid week – at home – against a team who cannot hit worth shit right now.  Pretty straight forward that he goes 7 innings, allows 1 ER and strikes out 10.  After that, it’s pure survival mode with Crow & Bello being potential options to get there, although I do have desire to see Cecconi pitch a gem.

Walk, do not run, because who the fuck wants to waste their energy running right now?  But still, get your ass over to the Brewers for their 7 run outburst that’s coming in the first 3 innings once again today.  Contreras & Yelich are locks.
