    The question on all of our minds: Will the decision to start Jose Siri affect his availability for crotch-thrusting dance moves?

    I don't mind Siri starting just don't do anything crazy on the base paths.
    Centerfielder _________ has an .830 OPS. Time for Siri to add to that. Together they make one.

    I don't think there are too many likely scenarios where both Javier and Greinke pitch tonight, and I think you agree on that.

    If they somehow use both Javier and Greinke tonight then we're getting into crazy scenarios at that point. In that scenario they would have had to have burned through all of the bullpen already, so having enough available arms to pitch a bullpen game the next day becomes an bigger issue. Framber only threw 64 pitches last time, so him on short rest and delaying the bullpen game to game 5 might be better. I don't see Garcia pitching on short rest in any scenario.

    My keys to the game.
    Urquidy flops his giant schlong out and goes 5 innings.
    Don't give up any grand slams
    Siri don't do anything stupid

    Siri is nothing but a glorified cheerleader at this point.

    Siri, huh? Okay. There must be a reason! Maybe he provides a spark tonight. Wow.

    if we keep them in the park, we win. Urquidi won’t walk guys. Critical to eliminate homers and XBH.

    So is Chas hurt then?

    I know Siri is a better bat (small sample size), but broken fingers don’t exactly heal overnight. I hope Brantley’s knees are ok since the outfield is not exactly looking gold glove level right now.
