“I’m watching the Marlins feed but it looked like Carlos Lee’s foot came off the bag on Hudson’s hit. Did it look different in ATL?”
Oh it was definitely off the bag, and Bucknor called him safe. Then they had an umpire conference and reversed the call.

Hudson needs to be pulled, this inning is a disgrace and Hudson IS a BUMB and the worst P in All of MLB.
Why is he letting this lead getting away — We are going to be losing if this garbage keeps up.

Glad we have an option for next year with Hudson. Facing the Marlins’ hella fail lineup and can’t throw a strike. No movement left on that 88 mph fastball.

Hudson is lucky to have given up just 4 runs to date.
Fredi needs to pull him after 5 cause he is not doing the job tonight — great catch by Heyward to bail Huddy out.

Somehow i thought HUDDY was due for a struggle. But you all know he’ll battle to the end of his strength. Time for C-MART then KIMBREL, but at 87 pitches, I’m sure FREDI will run him out there to get one more inning in, and you know TIMMY will answer the bell to go.

The only reason Huddy is still pitching is because his spot is due up 1st and I’m sure they would prefer to have the next guy pitch more than an inning if he can (now, if someone gets on, I bet he’s pulled)

With some rest between now and then….yes. SHEETS and/or DELGADO need a start. I still would start MAHOLM and lift him after three in favor of SHEETS then C-MART after six. AVILAN can’t handle three innings at this point…..in fact, prolly never will.
