My husband came across this article by Kary Booher of the Springfield New Leader, Kary used to wrote for Baseball America if the name sounds familiar.

If this link doesn't work after this post, it will be there "Kopp gets chance for a change".
It'snice to see something positive written, when you go from 8-2 to 0-3 it becomes "what's wrong with that guy". Or if you have a bad outing, this guy is no good why they call him up, or he doesn't have ML stuff.
The other night Dave's teammate was called up, second call up but first time on the mound, at Coors, he got the loss in relief. His mom made a post, it was very poignant, a moment that she waited for how badly she felt how he was thrown out there ( you know a parents perspective), but reality is, she is in a place that many parents would love to be in. She wrote to the fans on the board to let them know that often times fans post things about the young guys still learning and have no clue what is going on. Good for her.
Next start tomorrow, then flies home sunday late pm for 3 days!
