he does it to get Pujols up with more men on base

Has anyone

ever crunched the numbers to see if it actually works? I suppose it means a couple more RSIP situations, but not all that often. Although it may help lessen the number of GIDPs the pitcher hits into.

I actually give him a lot of credit last night

I was at the game and I honestly thought he wasn’t going to get out of the first inning. In fact, I wasn’t sure he would get an out. The fact that he settled down, went 5 innings and actually left with a lead was fairly impressive I thought. But yes he stinks. However he is better than Jose Lima.

Yeah, so did my swag entry

by BobbyV_Incognito on Jul 27, 2008 2:44 PM EDT up reply actions

So.

Let me just say, I hate Extra Innings.

I apparently get every other game ever, except for when Johan is pitching.

LAME.

So I’m watching the Rays/Royals game…..yeah I have no idea.

double local TV day

by DoctorK16 on Jul 27, 2008 2:45 PM EDT up reply actions

Double?

Who else is showing it? I’m watching on CW

by BobbyV_Incognito on Jul 27, 2008 2:46 PM EDT up reply actions

Nationally

Cards are their local affiliate and Mets are on CW a local affiliate. Hence no extra base hit.

Poor bastard

You’re missing a great game by Santana

Not to mention

Hippo, Tatis and the Baseball Jesus.

extra innings really is an inferior product

customers pay for all the innings, they should get them. Fuck faux and the other deals MLB has cut. We paid for the games, give them to us.

Damn

I thought Johan had a homer. Apparently, so did he. Way to showboat there.

by BobbyV_Incognito on Jul 27, 2008 2:47 PM EDT reply actions

Never mind.

He didn’t even run. Thought it was going foul.

by BobbyV_Incognito on Jul 27, 2008 2:48 PM EDT up reply actions

From the replay

It looks like he thought it was foul.

by Eric Simon on Jul 27, 2008 2:48 PM EDT up reply actions

so the question to ask

do they def need another bat?? Delgado, Tatis, Castro. They can’t all collapse can they? Looks like Beltran may slowly be breaking out of a slump as well. The more I think about it, the more I think Omar is right. Do not give up top prospects to get marginal added value from players like Ibanez or even a better player like Bay.

by Endys Game on Jul 27, 2008 2:49 PM EDT reply actions

i would mind

Manny or something like that. I’m like Luther Vandross, never too much.

by DoctorK16 on Jul 27, 2008 2:51 PM EDT up reply actions

We could still use another bat

Do you really expect Tatis to keep hitting like this for 3 more months? Sure, Church is coming back, but the guy’s had 2 concussions already this season. Not to mention, we’ve lost 3 outfielders to season-ending injuries so far. So relying on Endy this much is going to bite us on the ass eventually.

by BobbyV_Incognito on Jul 27, 2008 2:51 PM EDT up reply actions

of course we could use somebody

but the price seems very high. do you give up F-Mart or Niese for any of the hitters out there.

or we can vote for...

All I get to see are the Gameday video replays.

Which are alright, but it’s just not the same.

It’s why day games at work are such a pain in my ass.

No, not working

Not clear on that – day games when I’m working. I’m a state worker – we don’t do weekends (much).

I'm not working today.

I work mornings Monday through Friday, I’m usually off by the time the games start (4:05 through 4:15 pm) so I only miss day games, which start at 9 or 10.
