    He sure does have great intangibles.

    Eyre's ERA is now down to a tidy 15.00
  3. Rob
    At least he can afford a really nice vacation. And a nice island to have it on.

    Never threatening to score is a close game? This wasn't close after the first inning. I meant the score. A 4 run lead isn't invincible... (unless we play like we did today). I'm just trying to reverse jinx Eyre.
  5. Rob
    Say goodbye to a relatively close game.

    Since when? This year.

    Gameday said it was a wild pitch. It was but it was right infront of Barrett he turned the wrong way and let it skip away. TERRIBLE move--it hit his glove Barrett is the worst defensive catcher in the league. Y'know, even if that were true, and its not, his offense still outweighs it. It is true. Im tired of hearing about "his offense outweighs his mistakes behind the plate." Hell, I rather have Blanco starting behind the plate each game because I know he wont be dropping off-speed pitches, I know he will block pitches in the dirt, and I know he will call a really solid game behind the plate. Barrett is garbage behind the plate. He is better served as a DH in the AL than he is a catcher in the NL. I respect that you would rather focus on defense behind the plate, but it shows a complete lack of understanding the value of defensive contributions. It's surely frustrating to watch, but his offense does actually outweigh his defense.

TERRIBLE move--it hit his glove Barrett is the worst defensive catcher in the league. Yeah, with Piazza moving to the AL and becoming a DH, you might be right. I can't think of any worse off the top of my head, at least. On the other hand, he's also easily a top 5 offensive catcher. Mauer and McCann are the only two definately above him.

    Can't blame that one on Barrett. Gooz was way off target.
  10. Rob
    Getting stretched for the 5th starter spot. ::crosses fingers:: I would love that.
  11. Rob
    Wow, Gooz is still in.
  12. Rob
    Well I guess if we insist on hitting it right at somebody, that's the way to do it.

    Floyd must be the most unlucky hitter I've seen in a while.
  14. Rob
    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say Guzman should have been put in the freaking rotation.
  15. Rob
    Is it sad I cringed when it was hit at Izturis?
  16. Rob
    Well at least we're only paying 136 million for that. Incidentally, JD Drew had a dinger today. He's batting about 400 now.
  17. Rob
    Wow, I can't believe I got about 10 recaps. Thanks!
  18. Rob
    Just got back from class. Quick recap please?
  19. Rob
    Crap

    I wish I knew what Theriot's numbers have looked like since he stopped switch hitting so I could know whether Daryle is more likely to get on base versus a righty than he would be.
  21. Rob
    Why do we have to hit it right at them everytime?
  22. Rob
    That pitch wasn't a strike... for our pitchers.
  23. Rob
    Not with the Izzy channeling the spirit of Jack Cust for the last month.
  24. Rob
    On the plus side of things, Dempster is looking real solid.
  25. Rob
    Dempster just made Berkman look like a fool.
