Jesus Flores raised his OPS 130 points on Sunday. Brian Schneider: still hurt.
Brian Stokes threw fourteen pitches, thirteen for strikes. He has yet to allow a run in 9.1 innings.
Omir Santos went 1-for-4, dropping his average below .300, probably forever.

I'm just looking for something to blame Wright's Ks on.

Two non-Ollie things I took away from today's game:

1) Casey Fossum should have stayed in and finished the game. Also, Brian Stokes might appreciate a couple days off.

2) It is ridiculous that David Wright is getting booed at home. The people doing this can go fuck themselves.

'Oh yes, I know all about that duty-of-a-citizen stuff. It doesn't go. There are exceptions to every rule, and this was one of them. When a man risks his liberty to come and root at a ball-game, you've got to hand it to him. He isn't a crook. He's a fan.'
