Los Angeles Angels @ Toronto Blue Jays
Well, the Jays have been playing well, so let's not dwell on one bad game. Marcum pitches today against Jon Garland and it'll be interesting to see how Marcum does after 2 days rest following his one-inning rain-abridged performance in the city of brotherly love.
I will be around only for the second half of tonight's game, as I have a softball game after work. Not sure who we're playing, but they're about to get smacked down. Except probably not.

The stadium gun is registering some pitches in the 60s
I’m pretty sure neither Marcum nor Garland is tossing that soft.

Carlson no because he's a middle reliever
and there’s better closers to choose than BJ, although if it is a case of a single rep then anything goes.

To leave 17 men on base?
Plus, we have grounded into 3 DPs which eliminate 3 other runners who were on base but not stranded because they got out on the DP.
