He might go back to Rosie in the ninth, but he might not.

About 6 weeks ago, when Rosenthal had his problems, he did use Neshek in the ninth a few times.

If it is Rosie, even as stubborn as MM is, it will be handled different than last night. God Willing.

And while we are 1-1, we have problems. The D has been less than stellar, allowing Frisco to score almost every run of theirs so far off the uncharacteristic mistakes.

Then there's Rosie.

And last, but no where near least, we have lost Molina. If I had my choice, he would have been the one guy to keep from injury. Not sure we are going to get by Frisco without him behind the plate and guiding the team and the pitching staff nevertheless be able to contain the KC speedsters if we advance. From a game management slant, this is a real mess for the Cards.

But hell. It's done. Time to roll and do the undoable.
