Both Penn have thrown two scoreless innings the past two games. Two other candidates for that job are David Pauley and Danys Baez. Both struggled in their opening games this spring. John Parrish, my personal favorite, has not pitched yet this spring and may be the odd man out in this competition.

Who is going to pitch for this team? I believe Hennessey left the game with an injury. No word if serious or not.  Not only did Pauley not look like a 5th starter, he looks as though he may not even make this team. A bright spot was Ryan Freel, I think he was a good pickup and will get quite a few at bats playing all over the field. Anyone who reads this let me know your comments on todays game.

 

Talk to you all tomorrow after the Cards game

Bob McCrory and Fredy Deza were also optioned to Triple-A Norfolk along with Penn.
