    who caught Parra's perfect game?
  2. TauPentaRei
    No Reyes. No Beltran. No Delgado. Why will I be disappointed with 2 of 3 here? Can I get an 'Eye of the Tiger' / time to buckle down / smell blood in the water / kick em while they're down... from somebody?

    It would be incredibly expensive to retrofit an A/C system to the park, not to mention the added electricity costs. And where would the A/C infrastructure go? Most large buildings have the A/C units on the roof. Even without that option, the building was not planned to have A/C from the start, so something would have to move to make room for the new equipment. Miler Park is heated and air conditoned throughout, except for the seating bowl/playing field. I know this to be fact, as I was part of the installation crew. I left just a few days before the crane collapse. We will have to start a running tally here, but I was also on this project team for the GC. There is no air conditioning; only heat. There are vents in the concrete underneath the seats in the lower seating bowl also.

    Agreed. That's what I've wanted for at least a month now. I hope Doug gets on that soon. I think the missing puzzle piece is Victor Martinez. Upgrading our C "situation" makes us AL-powerful. Probably'd have to bat Fielder 5th.

    Furthermore, once they land in Milwaukee on Sunday afternoon, they won't be on another airplane for the 21 days leading up to the all-star break.

    Me no understandy this. Pitch Jeffrey Scot. Pitch like another cameo on Young and the Restless is riding on it! If the Brewers win, but Suppan only pitches 2 innings, I still won't feel good about them... now that I understand. Please be pitching in an inning that has a 7 in it tonight, please. The children beg of you. Pitch to contact* the Mike Maddux way for the children! *that is his only way.

    way to go Billy! way to go! all i kept thinking was: just strike out. please just strike out. the bar is set pretty low, eh? listening to the radio, I could only wince at every *crack* of the bat... that wound up being foul. way to go Billy.
  8. TauPentaRei
    he'd need an 0 - 7 tomorrow, but still... what is the modern day protocol (at-bat minimums) to have the distinction re-named? is it re-namable?
  9. TauPentaRei
    think Escobar could have provided something more than .208 over 200+ at-bats? moving Hall to CF for 2006 was (one of) the worst near-term things this team ever did. Gave them cold feet to experiment again.
  10. TauPentaRei
    Next time we face Johnson and Hall is 4 - 10 does he still get to start? darn near Ted Williamsy still.
  11. TauPentaRei
    heck of a job not letting up to Micah there. ok so good. you got your K numbers... start pitching to contact. A la Mr. Hoffman's 7 pitch inning specials. got that Kendall? really don't want to see Yo above 100 PC today. definitely don't want another 25 pitch inning either.
  12. TauPentaRei
    sorry to be a dissenter I guess, but... this Tony conspiracy theory talk doesn't swim, and projecting any frustration on him is fruitless. it would have been a lot easier to have internet access in the visitor's clubhouse (now that, is maybe something we can be mad at), look at the weather and start Villy or McClung than it is to manipulate a crew of umpires plus the paying public. and it wouldn't be an issue. rain delays bring out idle thoughts.
  13. TauPentaRei
    do you think the guy sitting in the A/V booth has a copy of 'Back in Black'?
  14. TauPentaRei
    man, been a long time! I even forgot my username... I got traded in the off season to the Bay Area. I even bought tickets to game #2 at Candlestick a couple of weeks ago knowing it was their only trip into SF. Imagine my surprise! Talk about catching a lucky break. I was at Wrigley last year for the, um, incident... so I will clear all of my bad juju away before heading over. I, for one, could not be happier that the Trashcan is kicking off 2009! (even though I haven't been able to shake the image of that "fastball" he tried to "blow past" Burrell for 5 months now) ((fresh season, fresh junkballer))
  15. TauPentaRei
    Godspeed Billy, pretend it's 2006 and you're a world beater. Make like it's June Corey; you are an all-star. Yo, I couldn't be happier for you, and your alligator blood. Geoff, so help me god, if you come through in any way, shape or form imaginable I will unleash a plague of heretofore unthinkable epic proportions. Braun, yours dreams of having "8" painted, immortalized up on the track beam will manifest this month. Jason, I would like to take some stem cells out of your knees for my twilight year's comfort. Boogie, I am glad aliens have not come down to abduct you to put in their alien zoos to show-off the beauty of the 'homosapien' in the running form; it's been a pleasure. No negativity from me; my old signature was answered... I'm jazzed.

    thanks for giving it some thought. But fine, if you insist - here is my proposed rotation assuming game 1 is "stolen": Gallardo (5) - Villy - McClung Bush (4) - Parra OFF CC (5) Suppan (8) OFF Gallardo (5) - Jonny Wholestaff Again, this sets up CC to start game 1 of the NLCS on 4 days rest - WHICH MEANS: CC has the opportunity to pitch 3 full games against the Dodgers / Cubs.
  17. TauPentaRei
    so call me crazy, i'd just like to play a little devil's advocate here: each and every of 54 posts up until now has assumed that CC is going games 2 and 5. And I'm fine with that, too. but in the name of scientific discovery, can we even explore the other option? for the record, I know CC will ask for the ball Thursday - and I have now taken the stance that CC should be in a 1960s style 4 man rotation and that he is settled into this particular groove. like, if you had pitched 15 straight starts on 4 days rest, the first time you pick up the ball on 3 has to be the biggest adjustment, right? but now that his body has become accustomed to the workload routine, it is responding and regenerating the way it needs to. BUT, what if Suppan (for the sake of argument) "steals" game 1 against Hamels? Would it then not make sense to throw Gallardo game 2 on 6 days rest? Thereby leaving CC ready to go for either the close-out (!) or pivotal game 3 on a veritable vacation for him at (undefeated) home on 5 days rest? Note that this also puts CC starting game 1 of the NLCS on "regular" 4 day rest. What is the etiquette / protocol regarding announcing your starters then changing them? Could Dale pencil in CC for game 2 and then scratch him? Is that kosh?
  18. TauPentaRei
    why do most seem to think that Soup can't build on his last start? this is precisely the game he was given that contract for, is it not? Parra has been sharp, too, with some recent rest let's not forget.
  19. TauPentaRei
    the forgettable (it's actually erased from memory and non-existant now) four gamer in Philly pitted Sheets, Parra, Bush & Suppan against Moyer, Hamels, Kendrick, Myers... They haven't seen CC... They haven't seen YoGa. This is gonna be awesome.
  20. TauPentaRei
    Dang, pedro done did call you out! well done P
  21. TauPentaRei
    did that "Setting The 25-Man Playoff Roster" thread (thankfully) get deleted by the Mods? So Ben is not going to get a World Series ring with the team then, huh? He'll get a pity ring along with Ueck and Yost, etc? Man that is going to be awesome. I need a new signature for the playoffs because mine has been answered.

    Hart has 17 base hits this month... give him a break.
