Teagarden in the lineup today, or wait until tomorrow?

Probably tomorrow. Night game tonight, day game tomorrow. Might come down to matchups though.

May be tough to determine, other than splits:

 

Worley RHP - 1 game faced - 0-3 - career; .698 OPS vs. LHB 

Hernandez (Sundays starter) LHP - Never faced.

Bucholz (Monday's starter RHP - 2:05 start time) - 6/25 lifetime - .641 OPS; .729 OPS vs. LHB

 

Wieters career splits: .833 OPS vs. LHP; .722 vs. RHP.

 

To me, there's no clear match-up advantage there, so I'd sit Matt tomorrow and have him rested and ready for Monday's matinee for the Fenway opener.

Hmmmm...if you've got day game yesterday, day game Sun and Mon, maybe the smarter play is to give him off tonight (or DH him) so that he's on a consistent schedule of playing day games through Tues night.

That makes sense too, good call. I guess we'll see.

I'm with you man. I'm feeling it.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Going to be interesting to see Tillman tonight.

[Coker]

Saturday Orange is where it's at. Love it. 

[BSLChrisStoner]

Easy fly out to Jones. 1 down.  Still love the Saturday Orange.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Tillman with the k... 2 gone. 94 on the outside black.

[Russ]

Nice 1-2 pitch for the K.

[Russ]

I love it when our pitchers throw strikes. It's a beautiful thing.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Thought the 0-2 to Willingham was strike 3. Tillman looks sharper than I expected.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Willingham swings through 94 up and out... O's coming up.

[Russ]

That's an encouraging first inning.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Nate must've not squared completely.. thought he had more of that.

[BSLChrisStoner]

There we go Manny... going oppo.
