Honestly, I'm excited about having Guardado back. Sure, he was never the lights-out guy that Nathan is, but we don't need that from him, all we need is a solid 8th inning now, something that I think Eddie should be able to do for us on a regular basis.
Almost more importantly, this move is a sign that we won't just sit here and do nothing when our bullpen is performing inconsistently.

Amen to everything you said Mark. I love the guys we have in the pen but they are flat out tired this time of the year from our young starting staff only able to go 5-6 innings a night.
Everday Eddie I hope can come back and be every other day Eddie. I think with splitting 8th inning time between him and Gurrier both will stay rested and Crain will serve better in the 7th inning roll. This leaves Bonser as the long man and Breslow/Reyes (the big sweat) to handle lefties in certain situations.
But you forgot to mention the best although most frustrating part of this. Mike Lamb is gone! Thank god but the sad thing is how much we still owe him if nobody picks him up. $3.8 mil ZOMG I think I do more for the team from F'ing Lancaster than he does for $3.8 mil.
We went to the Sunday game against the Angels and got some great pics from our great seats. I'll e-mail them to you and you should toss them up here on the site. My favorite is the pic of Morneau hitting his 100th RBI we caught the ball in the air off his bat. Just sweet.
Nice, I'll definitely put them up.
In a way I kinda feel bad for Lamb. He was trying to be a team guy, he didn't complain about losing his starting spot. A good team player, unfortunately you also have to play well to stick around.
