caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 C'mon Lillibridge, WAKE UP! Bring back Pierre, haha. Well, I won't go that far. But there's no way it should just be a 2-1 lead...which, of course, will have later consequences against the A's in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle's had good pitching for several years, so they haven't given up a ton of baserunners. On average, teams have 56 HR this year and 33 of them are solo shots, so something like 60% of HR are solo shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fail by a good hitter. Fail. Greg, Lillibridge does his job and reads the same ball that get the lead runner over to 3rd, he's standing on 2nd and you're cheering Alexei for doing his job by not striking out or popping up. Then it's 3-1 with another runner on 3rd with two outs. Totally different situation. I don't blame Alexei. That's arguably two runs (one offensively, one defensively) that he's cost us tonight. The chickens are starting to come home to roost with Lillibridge getting extended play over a long period of time. There was no way he wasn't going to cool down offensively.

Heads22 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 This inning, I would like to learn more about what it would take to own a house, roughly 16,000 square foot, in the Scottsdale area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 So who's our designated closer by committee tonight? Crain, Thornton or Sale? You'd have to go with Matty, but Jesus, if Cliff Pennington comes up again with the winning or tying runner on base, I hope he gets him out or he will be having Aarsdsma-esque nightmares for the rest of the season.

Dave Wilder still has some of his properties on the market, fwiw. Apparently, Rios has BOTH his left shoulder more turned in AND his hands higher. Those have been the two adjustments Walker is touting to everyone. Edited June 12, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
