    And he's a lefty. I would not be a bit surprised to see us struggle at the plate tonight.

    The weather might play a role in this one.
    Wrap it in Maroon and White

    A rainout may not be the worst thing in the world. At this juncture, we need to at least keep our rpi where it is. Winning this game will not help the rpi. With the lefty and his 1.95 era going tonight, the risk/reward is not favorable. The biggest benefit would be that a win pushes us closer to 40, not that 40 regular season wins is magic anymore, but it sure would look nice.

    Currently sunny in downtown Memphis. Looks like rain will start around 9pm.

    How's Memphis's RPI and how much,if at all, does a W help?

    And I know a loss hurts, so dont go into that.

    From what I understand we have everything to lose and nothing to gain RPI wise tonight.

    I'm ready to see how Armstrong responds. I like the speed in the lineup.

    I wouldn't mind that happening. He seems to have a good baseball mind.
