Surge,

Are you still up for your August 10th-16th Guest Starring run on the SOG/GOG threads?

Absotively! Have it marked down.

Surge,

Awsome! The threads have been a blast this season. Looking forward to the Guest Appearance.

It is so hot in Ventura right now...what would be a good solution...ah...beeeeeerrr.....

Need to borrow my limo and driver?

Bedard. Noooo doubt about that one.

Bedard who has had 3 of his last 4 starts result in a run or less. Seems to be turning it around.

1/2 Bedard- Great game
1/2 Cutch- I just love to see a guy hustle around the bases like Cutch did tonight.

Casting my Vote for Erik "First Month" Bedard....he was dealing tonight against a pretty good hitting DBacks team...i liked the increased tempo Bedard was using...he did not seem behind in the count as much tonight...

HM to JHay for playing some GREAT D at 3b

HM to Cutch for causing havoc in scoring the first Pirate run....

Bedard for SOG. I didn't turn on the game until the 8th inning but, perusing the box score, it's apparent that he was special tonight.

Doc,

At one point he retired 17 straight...the 18th batter was thrown out at second on a great throw from Marte in Left to end the inning....Bedard was pretty darn good tonight....

"Need to borrow my limo and driver?"

Not quite sure if you meant this for me, but I have two rules in life:

1. I refuse to join any club or organization that would accept someone like me as a member.

2. I would never consider ruining your rep amongst the beautiful people by doing anything other than washing your limo.

Erik Bedard

It's great to see that he's been very effective in his past few starts. Getting he and McDonald back on track, along with Burnett and Wandy, and then throw in the bulldog that is Karstens, and we have one heck of a rotation.

BEDARD!!!!!

The Pirates really needed a good start from him tonight & he delivered.

Bedard.

He was great on a night when he needed to be great. If he even gives up one run, maybe Arizona uses different pitchers in 8th.

Bedard was the man tonight - dominant performance.

Bedard

I could see him slinging his slow curves up there with his ho hum look on his face.

Bedard for SOG

Bedard.

Bedard!
