Don't Call It A Recap

The Bravos took care of the Cardinals 8-1, and it looks like Cox is starting to use his pitchers in their anticipated roles: Smoltz went 5 scoreless innings, followed by an inning from each of Remlinger, Villarreal, and Reitsma, with Lerew pitching the ninth after the game was out of reach.

Remlinger gave up the run, and is not distinguishing himself despite a clear path to a bullpen slot. Foster and McBride, last year's bullpen lefties, are both hurt, so the job may be Remmy's by default. Brave-O-Matic will therefore hold off on the career post mortems, while gently suggesting that young Mr. James may fit the bill.

Lastly, a dispatch from Brave-O-Matic After Dark, where it is learned that Jarrod Saltalamacchia is married to a gym teacher from his high school. Depending on your own high school experience, you may greet this news with a) envy, b)revulsion, or c) "a roomful of hypnotists could not force me to unblock my memories of high school gym class".
