The end of Noah's series

If the rain can stop for long enough to get a game in for the third day in a row, the Bucs will try and close out an unprecedented (for them) third straight series win. The Bucs will send Victor Santos out to the mound today, who's strangely gotten two wins in his last one start thanks to his work in the marathon game last Saturday. The Padres will send out a lineup that is much less paralyzing awful today, with Geoff Blum at third instead of Castilla and Adrian Gonzalez at first instead of Mark Bellhorn. The Pirates will trot out the same line they've been trotting out against righties recently, except that Doumit will get the start for the Sunday game. Again, this is all pretty hypothetical as the rain is coming down pretty good right now.

UPDATE: I'm wrong about the lineup, Freddy's at short and Bautista is at third while Jack gets the afternoon off.
