  1. Sorry not buying that. Say Marshall remains in the game and gives up the long ball? Then it's "stupid Baker why leave the rookie in the game?" The manger is damned either way. He leaves the starter in too long or pulls them too soon? It's all so subjective. Nobody has a crystal ball. The manager certainly isn't damned either way. The fact of the matter is that leaving Marshall in gave us a better chance to get out of it. You're acting as if the only choices were to let Wuertz let two in or Marshall give up the longball. With Marshall being an extreme groundball pitcher, there was more than a decent chance that he could've kept anything from happening at all.
  2. Well at least there wasn't too much damage done...
  3. My apologies. But doesn't quoting me kinda defeat the purpose of saying that?
  4. Marshall sits around the 90th percentile in GB/FB ratio, by the way.
  5. Looking at Wuertz, he's pretty much a flyball pitcher... Damn.
  6. Looking at last year's expected runs matrix, bases juiced with 1 out yielded 1.5279 runs on average.
  7. We really need a nickname for Marshall... suggestions?
  8. So this half inning is going to be hugely important to the possible outcome of this game.
  9. It must be all that molasses he was chugging.
  10. Nice play by Ronnie. Why were we staring at Pierre during the hit?
  11. If Eckstein had cracked that five foot tall barrier before he got to the big leagues, he woulda had that.
  12. I'm surprised Ponson isn't a better defender. You'd think he'd gobble up everything that goes over his plate.
  13. My jaw dropped to the floor when he said that...
  14. Oh! Thanks! I forgot I needed to throw my beer in the fridge.
  15. I don't think we can answer that due to the insane injury concerns for each player. We have no idea on how much power Rolen has retained, or how much to dock Aramis for because of his legs...
