One thing is for sure...you don't throw Hafner a 3-2 fastball down the cock when all a walk would do is load the bases with 2 outs.

Right on. You don't necessarily walk him, but you sure as s*** don't give him something that easy to hit. How many times does this guy have to burn us? Anyway, lets get some damn runs. We are due to break out.

I think he means tonight's game

 

 

If that is the case, ... If we were not sending hitters to the plate in the next innings that hit like they were abducted from third world countries and told to swing at anything or they could not eat, then yes, I would say hope is gone.

Isn't Neal's 3.7 ERA somewhat misleading?

 

What is his inherited runner stranded percentage or whatever the hell that's called. Hard to base anything off a relievers ERA.

 

Blake with a looping single. A 1-2-3 inning is impossible to get against these guys.

I'm going to hate watching Sizemore and Hafner hit the ball hard every AB against us for the next 5 years.

That would be because they have a good lineup with balance throughout.

He's a good hitter but here's the deal, how about getting him out on pitches earlier in the count? This was Cotts' fault, he nibbled and if you are afraid of the other teams hitters then please go away.

 

He did not want to walk the guy, he was trying to get him out by throwing him a strike, Cotts' problem there was simple ... he did not change speeds, either he didn't think of it or he doesn't have the ability.

 

But you have arguably your best left handed bullpen arm vs. arguably their best lefthanded hitter, despite fathoms 2nd guessing saying Thornton should have been in there ... the problem was a bad pitch by Cotts.

If you really need it, I have 10 witnesses hearing me say Thornton should have been in well before the first pitch of the AB :P

Some would constrew (sp?) these comments as out of line or even racist.

Good for you. Real easy to 2nd guess. You are a master at it.
