May hit the sack a little early

Doesn't look like you'll be missing much. We look downright awful again tonight, and Detwiler doesn't seem interested in keeping us in the game.

Had high hopes for him tonight. Wanted to win to ensure a split and maybe more

Maybe the offense will start putting something together. Still pisses me off that Kazmir is clearly on PED's.

Made some really bad pitches in that inning

That inning just snowballed on him.

Kazmir is hurting. Take advantage of this and keep him out there.

Eric Nadel said just now what I have thought for awhile. When a team switches a guy from the rotation to the bullpen there is usually a good reason for it. It might have been a little much to hope for to hope Detwiler would make a good starting pitcher.

I really think Detwiler is a placeholder in the rotation until one of our minor league pitchers shows he is ready. Then Detwiler goes to the pen. Maybe as soon as May.

Little early to be throwing up the white flag on Detwiler.

Rua does not seem to have any patience at the plate right now.

Rua doesn't have anything at the plate. Patience, a decent eye, or a plan.

You really can't give up 5 runs in an inning and expect to win a major league game.

I though that before now. I really think if Yu hadn't have gotten hurt that Detwiler would be in the pen now.

You can't get your ass handed to you at the plate all game either.
