Did not realize McGehee has been hitting .175 against lefties this season. That is awful.
-
We cannot hit young pitchers. Probably depend on scouting reports more than most teams. Suggests that Sveum gets them prepared well when he has data available.

Greinke had Kemp guessing in that AB

Draft Pick Discussion, Rounds 1-5
umphrey replied to battlekow's topic in MLB Draft & International Signings
I agree with this. I'm fine with Jungmann and Bradley barely throwing for the Brewers. Let them rest and have them come in for 2012. Absolutely no need to overwork them right now. Maybe give them a few innings but that's it.I'm not really sure where this opinion comes from. Why would it be good to let the muscles deteriorate for a few months and then build them back up again? Injuries happen most often when guys take long breaks and then have to work back into shape. Not to mention the benefit of a Major League medical staff and pitching coaches. I'd be a lot happier to see them sign early, start working on adjustments early, and start monitoring tendinitis type overwork issues early. -
I guessed a pitch count of 60 for Estrada, but surprised they pulled him with a 1 hitter thru 5
-
It's pretty funny how right after reading like 2 pages of how bad the announcers were they started talking about not knowing what words like mediocre mean and admitting that they aren't the sharpest tool in the shed
-
how often would you throw a strike to Yuni on 0-2?
-
More Cy Estrada please
-
who would have guessed, I've gone to about 5 games this year and seen a KRod hit, Marcum grand slam and Greinke home run
-
Weird seeing STL play probably the best defensive line up in the league today. Too bad no Berkman, Holliday, Theriot at SS, not Freese at 3B...for our half of the inning anyway.
-
I don't see any parallels between exhibition games and inter divisional playoff stretch baseball
-
Yuni broke into the green in WAR today, still has the worst fielding numbers of SS though
-
Astros must not have read the scouting report if they are walking Counsell
-
tight strike zone ended after half an inning apparently
-
Power rankings comment made me laugh http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/fangraphs-power-rankings-8111/

Searching for Felipe Lopez's stats the other day, I learned that there are about 1000 MLB players named Lopez
-
KRod I thought you would be money there since it really felt like a bottom of the 9th save
-
today is a nice day to have Saito, KRod, Axford
-
Hart looked slooooow
-
Thanks for the 3R 2 out HR against the Cardinals, Soriano
-
I usually won't complain about umps, but this is the most irritated I've been all year. At least 5 times he called a strike a ball for Wolf in the top of the 6th alone, and at least 5 times he called a ball for a strike against us for the bottom of the 6th.
-
I like Wolf so far. Some base runners, but he is pitching on the corners. If it's high, it's been a ball, and the strikes have been low in the zone.
-
BA said yesterday that Roenicke was going to use KRod to close if one is needed and have Axford rest. Yeah it doesn't make sense but RRR thinks Axford isn't as durable. It's possible it was his way of saying "I don't mind overworking our half year rental but our franchise closer, different story"
-
I was thinking they would probably be content to pitch KRod until his arm falls off like Sabbathia and they've used Axford 3 days in a row before so it will probably be the usual. If not, I think 7-8-9 go Hawkins-Loe-Saito.

How could you come to a conclusion on the injury based on what Ueck says right now? At this point in time even the medical staff is just making an educated guess. Won't know much except speculation until an MRI.
