dobbs recalled, gload off dl

Expanded rosters means no maneuvering is needed to liberate Ross Gload from the DL or to recall Gregg Dobbs from Lehigh Valley. Both are now done. Still no word, however, on who pitches the extra game on Monday. I'm off to see Vance Worley tonight. If indeed he pitches, he will not be the one, though a start for the kid would be sweet.

Despite the wacko numbers in yesterday's game, the bullpen was pretty good. Antonio Bastardo looked ready, but was done in by weird plays, a botched call, and some bad luck. The usually-consistent Chad Durbin, too, suffered Coors Field vapors. Had the 9th not started with an error, Lidge very well might have had a 1-2-3.
