Confession...

I had already started formulating a bench-Reed-Johnson, give-Felix-Pie-a-chance post when Johnson smacked his game-tying two-run homer off Juan Cruz on Sunday.

Pretty impressive homer from Johnson for a couple different reasons:

1) The wind was blowing in pretty fierce. I agreed with Len & Bob; I figured only the big boppers would have a chance at a homer on Sunday. But Johnson really gave it a ride.

2) Reed's prior swings were really weak. Just a strikeout and a couple weak grounders so far that day.

(I should add that I still think Felix deserves a chance to start a full series, especially if it's against three right-handed hurlers)
