Good news for those of us who fear R.A. Dickey in the rotation and the Octopus in the pen...both of them were rocked today, with Dickey giving up 5 runs in 4 IP, and Alfonseca giving up 3 runs -- including a pair of bombs -- in one inning.
Ian Kinsler and Adam Hyzdu each had a single and a homer, and Phil Nevin had another hitless game, putting the Nevin-for-MVP bandwagon in jeopardy...
Oh, and Rashad Eldridge is a beast...with his single today, he's now hitting .800 for the spring...
Update [2006-3-15 20:5:41 by Adam J. Morris]: -- Buck on Dickey:
"It's not a finished product but he goes through periods where it's pretty good," Showalter said. "We've got to decide if it's there yet. That's a pretty tough call."
It is?
