7:10 PM - SAUNDERS @ RowlandSmith or Jakubauskas
Joe Saunders is our temporary ace, I guess they are all temporary like Achilles.There isn't much more to say with an ace on the mound besides "PLAY BALL!" and knowing that we skipped Felix and a seemingly healthy Bedard and still had the first two handed to us only for us to politely turn down such gauche things as an easy victory in the Pacific Northwest

…I notice that in yesterdays picks you neglected to post your prediction in the comments.
Your fine work notwithstanding, I do have a question – will you be deducting those 2 points from your score?

From Seattle: Yes-Yes-Yes
Jakubauskas is going to pitch OK, but my guess is that he only goes 5. The only person in our bullpen that I remotely trust is Shawn Kelley and he pitched last night (and therefore might not be as sharp were he to be used). Vlad HRs off Batista and it either ties the game or gives you guys the lead. Shields will come in and shut the M’s down like he normally does…
As long as the M’s have Batista, Washburn and Silva you guys still have hope. In spades…
PositivePaul - April 16, 2009
Jakubauskas should do very well
The Angels have enough trouble scoring runs (currently last in the AL). Last year I recall a few games where the Angels would struggle badly against pitchers with no track record.
From 2008:
Matt Harrison (Rangers): 7 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 BB 1 K (major league debut)
Sean Gallagher (A’s): 7 IP, 2H, 2R, 3 BB, 7K (AL debut, 1st appearance with the A’s)
Chris Waters (O’s): 8 IP, 1H, 0 R, 3 BB, 3 K (major league debut)
XYZ123 - April 16, 2009
Yup...
Bad track record against new guys.
I’m a bit scared as well heh…

Vlad is out with a strained pec

XYZ123 - April 16, 2009
thanks!
if Vlad goes on the DL, we better see Brandon Wood up here to DH!
b0rd3rline - April 16, 2009
If it's a tear and needs surgery, Vlad could be out for several months
I’ll consider it lucky if he’s only out 3-to-4 weeks.
