With all the injuries and the last minute scratch of Roy Halladay, yesterday's victory over Seattle must be viewed as a character win. A key 2-run shot from Vernon Wells and excellent hitting and fielding from Reed Johnson paved the way to a one-run victory. Jason Frasor has some rough moments in the 8th, but found his command in the 9th to close the game out.
If Ted Lilly doesn't walk a lot of Mariners hitters he should be able to limit their run scoring opportunities. Like Gil Meche, Joel Pineiro is a young righthander who's had a rough go of it this season so far.
