  1. Please spell his name right. I really hate that specific misspelling.
  2. You know it's 2012 when the moment Lucroy hit that ball, you think, "Great, K-Rod is going to come in and spoil the party."
  3. I'll guarantee that if Rickie swung at "strike three," people here would've criticized him for swinging at ball four. EDIT: And that's a guarantee I'll never have to back up!
  4. It wasn't questionable. It was quite obviously well inside.
  5. [sarcasm]When will Braun learn to take his walks?[/sarcasm]
  6. Well, the Crew brought their bunting "A" game tonight. EDIT: Then again, with Izturis up after Green, perhaps it would've been better to let Green try to swing away. But hey, I'm happy to have base runners.
  7. On ball four to Braun, Brenly showed that the catcher's poor technique may have led to the pitch being called a ball. The catcher dropped to a knee and caught the ball under-handed, possibly fooling the ump into thinking it was too low.
  8. I assume this is in response to the GIDP by Green. I guess I just chalk it up to "sometimes guys GIDP." I mean, there was a double and a walk before that, so that was good, at least.
  9. Guess that's what happens when you have to worry about tough curveballs.
  10. Watching TB/NYY, I just found it pretty funny that the Yankees' announcer used the term "bronx cheer" incorrectly.
  11. If I wanted to watch something where officiating mistakes/problems made it more "entertaining," I'd watch professional wrestling.
  12. Because most of the time, there is no need for replay. The one or two times a game there is a need for it, though, it should be available. Plus, umpires do more than just call balls/strikes and safe/out. Come on, you can do better that. And wouldn't it be nice to be able to correct a blown call? I sure think so. Hell, I bet the umps think so, too. I know Jim Joyce would've been a lot happier last year.
  13. Ed Sedar bought Bernie's old stein and keeps it filled in his back yard.
  14. Yeah, we can all rue our luck that Ish and Izzy have to be in the lineup every day right now, but at least they play high quality defense. It could be worse.
  15. Hard to think his new level is going to be a .219 BABIP, even the slowest of catchers sits higher than that. I think the point is that there is a reason his BABIP is so terrible, and it's not bad luck. It's bad hitting. That's not to say he won't turn it around - we all know that he is a quality hitter. He's in a terrible slump right now, for whatever reason, and his BABIP reflects more on his poor at-bats than on bad luck.
  16. Granted, it's not a problem when he's hitting well, but I've always wondered if Rickie stands too far from home plate. He seems to have a lot of trouble with pitches on the outer half. He seems to lunge a lot. But who knows. Everything could be fine and it's just a miserable season-starting slump.
