Manager Earl Weaver Sr. spent the whole day down in the Knight's bullpen and you could hear him all the way into the clubhouse."These $^$% Relievers are on holidays....they get paid millions of dollars to pitch 1-2 innings and they could't hold a lead if their life depended on it."
As a result Jason Grilli( 1-0,2.28) has been moved to the closers position.Rookie Evan Scribner (1-0,1.59) slides into late and tied while former closer Vinnie"The Hitman" Pestano (1-0,5.87) moves to middle relief.THe former closer when asked how he felt about his demotion.All i said was ,"Skippy calm down,its early in the season,we are in 1st place." According to Pestano Weaver blew a fuse...."I was shocked ," said Vinnie...I told him he should move to Canada and smoke a dooobie." " The Next thing a know i middle relief."
Weaver refused to answer the media before tonight's games against New Mexico The Long Run (22-11)good enough for second 1 game behind the surprising BAYSIDE OWLS .
