One Night Only: Game Previews for Memorial Day


This is a day for remembering.

This edition of One Night Only is celebrating Memorial Day, and is, as the French say (after translating the expression into English), “very brief.”

Nevertheless, please find Pitcher and Team NERD scores for every one of today’s games after the jump.

Please also find that Rodrigo Lopez — despite the fact that he’s making his Cub debut — receives only a NERD of 5 (instead of 10, as season debuts usually receive).

“Because he’s Rodrigo Lopez,” is the answer to the question you needn’t actually ask.

Now Playing
These games are very likely playing at some kind of sporty channel near you.

pNERD = Pitcher NERD
tNERD = Team NERD
Game = Time and Average NERD for Game
* = Fewer than 20 IP, NERD of 5 (or 10 for debuts)

The Cardinals might happily swap McClellan for Bumgarner, but, so far as I can tell, that hasn’t yet happened.

Or are we breaking news in One Night Only?
