Rapid Bracket Analysis- 3 MAR
Likely, the next big Update will come Sunday/Monday. Cal and Houston forced my hand and things are sliding every which way. Everything below a 9 seed is rock solid. Maryland and VCU flip spots to accommodate URI into the South as a 12 seed bye. Houston drops off the 13 line to the second four out, replaced by Seton Hall, who faces off against Wake. Xavier will likely have to wait a week to get another crack at this. Cal falls to the 12 seed play-in game vs Cuse. Providence and USC are the beneficiaries, locking in 12 seeds.

Resumed Against the Astros
I have no idea how this is handled in major league baseball. The most fortuitous thing going for the Nats as a whole is that the fan who caught Adam Dunn's 300th doesn't have to worry about Dunn bumping that to 301 with a bomb retroactive to May.
The unfortunate thing is that Elijah Dukes is on first base... he is no longer with the team. Joel Hanrahan is the pitcher of record. He is no longer with the club entirely. All told, the Nats have already used 19 players in this game. The 20th will occur when the game resumes and someone pinch runs for Dukes, unless MLB allows playground rules and ghost runners. The 21st player will enter the game if Willingham cannot end it, as Hanrahan is due up next.
The Nats have only used six pitchers (four of which aren't on the friggin roster), which means the Nats are likely out of position players. Also, if the game goes to a 12th, replacing the pitcher is easy, but who replaces Jesus Flores? Wil is already out of the game... Do the Nats use a 6th position player to get Bard into the game?
Seriously, I cannot wait for the mayhem to unfold.

Bullpen Woes
Could it be that Houston has worse issues? The sixth inning has been generous, yielding five last night, six today.
Of course, he who taketh also giveth away, this time in the form of Julian Tavarez, who hopefully will be out of baseball again by the end of the week. He is one of the few pitchers on the roster who can strike anyone out, but he has now given up 12 runs in less than 11 innings. Bring on Ron Villone!
