Can't Get No Relief (Again?)

Another Saturday finds Bill and several of his team at work, trying to appease the taskmaster boss Scrivener and reconcile yesterday afternoon's loss to Toronto …

Bill:
Why re-call a reliever who is a 1-inning guy? I don't think sending Malaska back out for 1-2 more batters would be risky

Mike:
That may be the role that best suits Malaska but he has been a starter in the past. While he isn't stretched out, i don't see him going a second inning to be Heartbreak Hill.

Bill:
I hate making excuses, but this team at 100% strength is perfect, but right now we are flawed …though I have to say it's ridiculously early, but certain common mistakes worry me.

 

---

Mike:
"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength."

 

---

Bill:
OK, wise one, back to your Hiding Place. [Laughs] Scrivener's going to pop in around 10am on his way to tee time to see where we're at on the Papa Gino's RFP.

Bill's first speech is attributed to "PaulM" from screen 5 of the thread Second Guesser's Club - Toronto @ Boston at SoSH, while Mike's response is attributed to "HomeRunBaker" on the same screen. Mike's ending quote is from The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom.
