[Doytch]

I have a feeling he'll be gone by the trade deadline.

No real reason to have him here over Stewart, or even Brad Mills.

 

[Doytch]

lol zips ros for luis perez: 6.66 era, 1.94 whip. hes got a 3.57 tERA right now.

 

[Sanjuro]

Who's fucking idea was it to only have about three fucking games the first day after the All-Star break?

 

[eznark]

Who's fucking idea was it to only have about three fucking games the first day after the All-Star break?

This is how it has always been (recently anyway). Only about half the teams play on Thursday after the all-star game.

[Sanjuro]

Idiotic. All teams should have double headers today and Hipster Managers should be given a two-pack of Kleenex.

 

[SyNapSe]

Bruce Chenimal! He's decent, I'm sure the Royals are preparing to trade him ASAP like any other player who isn't gawful.

 

[sangreal]

Well there goes the white flag

 

[Doytch]

looooooooooooool cano defence. are you watching this weekend warrior?

 

[Sanjuro]

Don't be a jerk Doytch...he's got a laser rocket arm.

 

[Sharp]

He must be a great outfielder from everything I've heard

 

[ViperVisor]

Uhghh...

I am missing Escobar more getting to see his competent and then some ABs and his arm at SS.

 

[sangreal]

This will be worth it if it is Mitre's last game in pinstripes

 

[Doytch]

and they were worried about jeter getting the ball 10 ft to his left.

 

[Sanjuro]

When are the Favre-esque records going to come for Jeter?

 

[Sharp]

and they were worried about jeter getting the ball 10 ft to his left.

There's still no one I'd rather have catch a ball thrown right to him during long-toss.

 

[eznark]

Gallardo is getting fucking lit up

 

[Doytch]

lol reyes gets the win after giving up 7 earned.

 

[Fenix]

How did that only take 3 hours?

lol reyes gets the win after giving up 7 earned.

Wins are the only stat that matter, pitched to the score, etc.

 

[Doytch]

damn son, cameron maybin with a sick catch.

 

[The Frankman]

Roenicke should totally give K-Rod the 9th inning to get some work in.

 

[Sharp]

I never in my life thought I'd say "Dunn would have had that" but Fielder just made it happen. Well, maybe Dunn wouldn't have gotten there I guess.

 

[LJ11]

Really? I see Beato as more of a future closer since he has deeper stuff (hard sinker/95 mph fastball/nice curve/decent slider) and locates better. Parnell is on a roll due to the resurgence of his slider... he throws a change but it's not a good one at all. If he can't locate either pitch he's screwed. I mean Parnell can throw 100 mph but so could Derek Wallace/Kane Davis/etc.

Izzy cannot locate the cutter in on lefties consistently, and doesn't throw the knuckle-curve as much anymore. Considering 90 mph is as hard as he can throw... yeah.

If you saw Izzy's curve in ST vs now you'll understand why he doesn't throw it, it's junk. It looked pretty nasty in ST, but the dude is old and he just doesn't have it anymore.

Beato may be the guy down the road, but he's not there yet. Now if we had the same Beato that you have in that fucking league roster, well yeah, have his ass close right now because he's filthy.

lol funny thing is they shortchanged him on the roster, i think he was missing a pitch or two.

CARLOS MARMOL (7/14/2011 vs. FLA):
0.0 IP, 5 ER, 1 H, 4 BB

Nicely done.

 

[MisterNugNug]

Not even a hit? Seriously? Of Derek Holland?

 

[ConradCervantes]

I don't normally condone criminal activity, but somebody needs to walk into a forest with Zack Braddock and leave it without him.

 

[darkiguana]

The dutch oven pitches another gem. 18 scoreless innings in a row.

Daniel Bard is better and sexier.

I believe his ERA is technically infinity. lol

Snider threw me the ball he snagged today whoooooo great game

Carlos. Fucking. Marmol.

[cuevas. PhD.]

I LOVE this guy.

 

[Wellington]

I'll admit, I laughed.

Can't wait until baseball starts up again. Anxious to see how the Yankees begin the second half of the season!

Remember when Jim Riggleman was never going to get a job in baseball again? Guy would be blackballed? He had killed his chances of ever coaching at any level?

Jim riggleman is officially hired by giants as special assignment scout. Sabean/bochy make excellent hires

You guys haven't watched baseball long enough.

Yeah, I heard he was interviewing with Sabean. Should've known he'd get a job with that organization when he was selected to the ASG despite a miserable record. I maintain that he won't get another management job for many years, though. Scouting is something he's actually decent at.

Also, Bryce going full douche earlier than expected.

The minute he said he pretty much stopped caring because he was bored at A I knew the guy was a twat for life.

As far as Riggleman, I am guessing he'll backdoor his way to a job in 2014. I'm going to say there is a better than 75% chance he is a bench coach next season.

 

[Sharp]

With idiots like Sabean in charge, I guess I shouldn't bet against it. I wish I knew how to get into the old boys' club that is MLB management positions, because it seems like regardless of how bad you are at your job or how poorly you do in the many chances you're given, you can always find another.

If history holds, then that means he'll give up 20 runs in his next two starts and walk 14 batters.
