This game is killing me. -
I can't believe we actually asked Pie to steal there... that was a very stupid decision.
-
Woo!
-
We just got a gift call there.
-
Bautista laid down a bunt up the first baseline that would have easily scored Bixler... if they had actually called for the squeeze. Nobody was covering first, but the ball was a bit faster than Bautista, so DLee had just enough time to pick it up and apply the tag.
-
Oh, wow...
-
And instead of having Marmol in, who could work out of this jam with a strikeout... we have Lieber, who hardly ever strikes out anybody.
-
I am soooo getting drunk tonight.
-
Lieber instead of Marmol?
-
Good AB by Ronny... shame it didn't fall.
-
Because Grabow is a LHP. I'm not saying I agree, but it is the rationale.
-
Ronny didn't swing on a 2-0 count?
-
I'm naming my first child Kosuke.
-
But everyone was bitching that lou should have used Marmol in the 6th. Wow Maybe Lou knows a little about this game! If Marmol had come in during the 6th, we might have the lead right now. FUKUDOME!!!
-
You are starting to lean a little to heavy on Fukudome. The rest of the bats need to do more as well. All the other bats have to do is keep us close enough that Fukudome can win it for us.
-
Everybody here seems to be forgetting who is going to be leading off the next inning for us. Fukudome DeRosa Soto Cedeno P (Ward) Soriano Believe, folks.

too bad lilly became a little girl and couldnt pitch with a huge lead Ummm, that's not exactly the story line of the game. He wasn't good but the defense has been atrocious and the bullpen porous. Lilly gave up 7 hits and 2 walks (with only one strikeout) in 3.2 IP. No extra baserunners reached because of the defense... they advanced a bit more quickly, but they were on anyways. Lilly was pretty much terrible.
-
I can't watch...
-
That might have been the most disappointing fan cam of all time. Where were all the hot girls?
-
Get Marmol up.
-
That's only true if you are ignorant to his minor league stats... which you probably aren't. You can't pretend minor league stats aren't generally going to be pretty good indicators of future success.
-
He's an interesting case, as the entire book on him has changed since he came into the organization last season (in the Bynum deal). When he got here, Rothschild taught him a cutter which he has really taken to... and we're still just kinda trying to see how he keeps going. My guess? He could be better than Marquis... maybe Dempster. I don't see him anywhere near the top 3 guys, though.

At this point, I think this is simply trolling. You're trying to rile up the sizable pro-Cedeno crowd here. Pardon? What is your problem? I didn't even bother to read the previous posts in this thread, nor is there a reason to. I merely logged on here to express my utter disbelief that Cedeno continues to get chances to suck on this roster. I've been a member here for a few years, and have numerous posts. Your "trolling" comment is offensive and belittling; I'd suggest you rethink your comment. Isn't this a game thread - a place where forum members can post their comments on the game? You'll have to excuse him. He was just assuming nobody was ignorant enough to accuse the man who smacked a three run double over the CFs head of being a terrible baseball player. If you were really trying to argue that Cedeno is a terrible ballplayer, I'd love to hear whatever asinine explanations you have to back that up.

Compared to who? Theriot doesn't get to that ball and two runs score either way. I didn't say that Theriot would have gotten to that ball, but if he did, I doubt it ends up in the stands. But he wouldn't have, so it's moot. I'm not the one who brought up Theriot. Good stops fantastic, but if you throw it into the stands or into the dugout, it's a waste. For the last time...Theriot doesn't even get to the ball in the first place, and the runs still score. For the last time.....Cedeno makes too many terrible defensive plays to start. HE COULD HAVE HELD ONTO THE BALL. Theriot isn't part of the question. Exactly. Theriot wouldn't have been part of the equation. It would have gone off the bat until Soriano picked it up. Theriot doesn't make enough defensive plays to start.
