I am going to try and go to the game on Wednesday. It is at 5pm-- at Target Field.

I talked to couple of the players at a graduation party last night. The whole team is very disappointed, but they think they can win the tournament. In talking to them, I wondered if they were not pressing a little too much.

May have been. Pressure is on for the tournament. However, they can reset and take one game at a time and not worry about their record. If they win it all they are in.

I thought it was a very telling sign that Erstad started Dilday instead of Darby on Saturday. Before the rain out, Dilday was 2-2 but was part of that flubbed play that resulted in a run. It will be interesting to see which way Erstad goes. Hopefully Schreiber's back is better, he gives us much needed power (or at least a chance for it).

I would rather see Dilday, Boldt & Alverado in the outfield.

I would rather see Darby instead of Dilday, he is defensive playmaker, besides the botched pop up
