Philadelphia 1, Houston 1

Just wondering if Bob Cobb would like to update his Happ Oswalt comparison? I'm really not sure why he decided to make this an issue of contention. It's bizarre. Learn how to pick your battles Bob. Must have been a Mets induced hangover or perhaps some lingering resentment over his place in the Hearts hierarchy. Regardless, have no fear, because Smuckers is prepared to follow through on this until the end of the season or until Happ ends up in the bullpen or back on the DL. So how did round two turn out?

Oswalt: 6.1 IP, 3H, 2R, 2ER

Happ: 1 Ip, 6H, 7ER

Any Questions?

Houston 1, Philadelphia 0

I thought I would live up to the "Shallow and Fairly Obvious" tone of this blog and just highlight the box scores from Friday, July 30th:

Oswalt (L) vs. Washington Nationals - 6.0 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 2 BB, 4 SO

Happ (W) vs. Milwaukee Brewers - 6.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 4 BB, 6 SO
