I'm shuttling Jacob Turner out there for the two start week, it would be great to get off to a nice start. Up 13.5 games with 6 weeks to go in my main league, and down one point to Jackie Hayes in Pond Scum. August is gonna be huge for me.

[Ray Zorback]

Every time I bench a pitcher, they throw a great game. (ex-Lester yesterday)

So I'm going to start asking for opinions.

Anyone trusting Beachy today?

[Element]

I'm pretty sure that the Cards have struggled vs LHP recently. Liriano has been hot too. Which only means that he'll get lit up!

And the Marlins bullpen blows the W.

There's nothing like the relief of realizing that the guy with a 135.00 ERA for the evening is on your bench.

Turner had the W in line, got taken out a bit prematurely, and it burned them. Without the W, it was a fairly crappy start. There's always tomorrow....
