Negativity: the secret to success

Six shutout innings? Ramon Ortiz?

Six runs? The Angels?

Welcome to bizarro world. Seriously, what is happening here? I know that Ramon has pitched well out of the bullpen, but he was still getting hit very hard. Never in my wildest dreams did I think he could put-up six scoreless- on three hits no less.

So what do we do now? I don't see how we can not give Ortiz a couple more starts after this performance. It seems to me that we now have eight quality starters, yet not a single ace in the bunch. Something's gotta give.

As for the offensive explosion (and yes, six runs is an offensive explosion for this team), I think something must be wrong with the Rocket. There's no way we do this against a healthy Clemens.
