Kind of surprised there's no Nyjer Morgan tonight. I figured Roenicke would have him in there in the hopes that he distracts or otherwise messes with Carpenter. Maybe he wanted more defense with Kotsay, anticipating a pitcher's duel?

Not the reason. Kotsay is a terrible OF, especially in Center. I would have been happy with Gomez out there as he has swung the stick well lately and is exceptional on D. This is just a horrendous decision by Roenicke. He will cost the Crew at least 1 run in the field.

good call there. at least one in the field, and possibly one
