    Well it looks like we will have one more time through the order against a lesser pitcher so Im not 100% confident we will get shutout.

    Looks like Brett Carroll's first start on Sunday for the Crew

    1 bad week, I bet every player who has ever won the MVP award has had a bad week. He'll be fine, he shoulda just picked Upton for the HR derby and he wouldnt be pressing so much right now.

    Only Yuni can make that a bang bang play, no charge at all and double clutch
  5. topper09er
    Kennedy is at 99 pitches, maybe Gibson will do us a favor and take him out
  6. topper09er
    No reason to throw a FB on the 3-2 pitch, Yuni is on deck. Casey is obviously too dumb to know this
  7. topper09er
    Please lucky hit here to make up for Weeks
  8. topper09er
    Or at least pull the ball and get Braun over

    If we could somehow make sure to sign Beltran for the next 2-3 seasons we could afford to trade Gamel+ for him. The Mets do have Wright and Ike Davis at the corner but they could consider throwing Gamel in the Corner OF, Corey Hart only played 4 games in the OF before AAA. Next season we could go Hart 3, Morgan 8, Braun 7, Beltran 9, Weeks 4, Lucroy 2, McGehee/Green 5, SS 6. We will have the money with Prince coming off the books, but still a big hole at SS. Also, Beltran is 34 so aging and injuries make him a big risk but make it more likely we could get him to agree to a 3-year deal. However, for the remainder of this season we suddenly have by far the best lineup in the NL, and most of the time have Hart on the bench ready to pinch hit since he wouldnt start against a RHP.

    Just off the top of my head, is RRR 2 for 3 using his 5 man IF? I remember a loss via an Orlando Hudson walk-off in SD, but the Josh Wilson game-winning HR game in FLA and last night resulted in 0 runs being scored with the 5 man IF. I feel like there may be 1 more?

    No way, Saito got into that mess himself. The obvious choice is Narveson who shut them out for 7 innings, we only scored 2 in regulation so any run that he gave up may have been enough to lose. Honorable Mention goes to Braun for the dinger and starting that great play at the plate that saved the game and ended Drew's season.

    It feels like Plush's WPA should be about 10
  14. topper09er
    OK now this is basically the definition of a bunting situation
  15. topper09er
    Those are his averages, sometimes he is better than that and sometimes worse. Tonight he was definitely better. I dont get why you dont leave him until there is 1 baserunner, that way you have 2 options in the 8th, if you just use K-Rod you are hoping he has his good stuff tonight but you already know Narveson has his.
  16. topper09er
    Yessss no Seppuku needed from Saito
  17. topper09er
    Fielder + Yuni + McGehee = 3.6 + (-0.5) + (-0.5) = 2.6 WAR thus far, so being conservative and doubling that = 5.2 replacement WAR needed for next year, spread among 3 players = 1.7 WAR/player at 3rd, SS and 1B. I would hope Gamel would provide at least 3 WAR on his own meaning it would not be very difficult to be just as good next year as we are this year.

    I think Ron finally OK'd sacrificing a chicken in the visitors clubhouse.Are you trying to tell me Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?
  19. topper09er
    Crap, just got here, tried to look back but didnt see anything? What happened with Braun again, pull up on a grounder
  20. topper09er
    I would say actually the most important point is to group all your best hitter together, followed by having that group at the top of the order. I would rather see Hart-Weeks-Braun-Feilder hitting 6-7-8-9 if they were all together than seeing Fielder-1, Braun-3, Hart-5, Weeks-7 or whatever. Slipping the out machine Kotsay between all of our best hitters really hurts and kills rallies, just like having Gomez hitting #2 right in the midst of Weeks, Braun and Fielder did. Right now I would like to see Morgan, Hart, Fielder, Weeks, Lucroy in the top 5 spots followed by any combination of the remaining blackhole at the bottom of the order.

    The Reds have not won back-to-back games since June 15, over a month since they won 2 straight
  22. topper09er
    1) Sheets on the Mound 2) Prince in the box 3) Yuni on the bench
  23. topper09er
    I vote McGehee not because he cant hit, but because he the slowest non catcher Ive ever seen, which is painful to watch. He never, ever looks like he is hustling or striding as far as he can when he runs. His caught stealing on a hit and run this year was one of the most embarrassing displays of athleticism Ive ever seen, I feel like every member of the Packers O-Line is faster than him. It would almost be worse if he was giving it 100% when he runs because that would make him slower than a dead turtle at top speed. I wonder what his 40 time would be, something like 6 seconds maybe?
  24. topper09er
    2-2 in this series feels pretty good considering how bad they looked in the first 2 games
  25. topper09er
    Im not sure Iannetta would even be a worse defender at 1B than Giambi
