We got a heads up

warning that attending the convention centre tomorrow MAY incur traffic but not to worry coz it was a Rockies game which are usually not very well attended.

I guess they haven’t been following the pads recently…

Peavy vs. COL

Each of the last 4 games he started against them have gone to extra innings.

I like it when 3-4 hitters knock home runners from 3rd with less than 2 outs.

Estes

has been throwing really well at AAA. But Ledez has been throwing really well…IN THE MAJOR LEAGUES. So I dunno, maybe there is some nagging injury that Ledez exasterbated but who knows.

I'm thinking

they brought Estes up as a starter – hasn’t started in 2 yrs, but that was primarily his role in the past. And if they are going to cut loose Thatcher or Rusch tomorrow, they want Ledezma to be the left-handed guy in the pen.

Could certainly see Estes going south in a hurry, though.

I really think that's deceiving for Thatcher, though

He’s been overused by Black, not just fatiguing him but letting hitters get really long looks at him. I think he could be a lot better if he wasn’t automatically summoned every 7th inning.

Gerut should have laid Cook’s ass OUT.

This is probably the decision-maker right here, yeah?

He pitches well, he stays and Thatch goes. He blows up, he’s gone.

No pressure.

I'd venture to say

that’s probably true.

Rusch walks a guy

Thatch down in the pen: “YES!”

Yep

It’s Rusch’s turn to be ruined by Harry now.

vasgersian not in the business of giving love to the worldwide leader… maybe he’ll be with the padres a bit longer.

It's funny.

Even when he makes a catch like that…it just looks awkward and totally un-natural. You know?

I don't know

It’s neck and neck. I think Harry should throw Thatcher out there in the ninth.

by Winfield's Ghost on May 9, 2008 9:16 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

He can't

its not the seventh

What happened to Corpas?

In short

He sucks

Every day is a Holliday!

by free7694 on May 9, 2008 9:26 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

You guys like Fuentes better as the closer?

I always thought Hurdle should’ve stuck with him.

by Winfield's Ghost on May 9, 2008 9:27 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

We like whoever gets people out.

And Corpas wasn’t doing that, so Brian is back.

Every day is a Holliday!

I'd just like to know what other kind of changes

They can only do so much, short of trading/releasing everyone. At some pt, guys are gonna have to hit and guys are gonna have to get hitters out. Gerut could hit .400 and it won’t matter if the guys behind him don’t hit.

The only thing I'd say to that is

at least he stayed dialed in. I fear others would’ve just have already given up on the game. Doesn’t excuse the GIDPs, but at least he keeps grinding.

by Winfield's Ghost on May 9, 2008 9:44 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree

he always seems to keep his head straight which is a great quality
