Lilly is all over the place.

Batista is getting his [expletive] lit up.
-
Lilly had no command that inning.

Lilly sure likes to pitch up in the zone.
-
Not liking this matchup for Lilly against Sexson.
-
Batista is missing his spots.

Jones is going to hammer this pitch. Edit: I'll take a walk.

Nice job Izzy!!

Nice job attacking the zone by Lilly in that inning.
-
Not a good 0-2 pitch
-
Solid inning.

SOLID. That is what I like to see. Get him on, move him over, and then get him in.

And he probably will not have the same kind of season he had last year.

Which starter will pitch the first complete game?

Jason Marquis. -
Only one person is throwing more than one reliever per week, and Putz is just as good a bet as half the guys they're throwing to pick up saves. Besides, there just wasn't any value using a pick on BJ Ryan or somebody when guys like Ben Sheets were on the board. Putz is having an elbow problem right now. Might want to consider picking up another closer.

I'm Now Writing a Fantasy Sports Article

Matt Garza, Kevin Kouzmanoff, Adam Lind, and Craig Hansen are my fantasy sleepers. -
Mississippi St. beat second ranked South Carolina 6-5 to even up that series. MSU improved to 14-5 overall and 3-2 in conference play.

The majority of arm injuries come after a pitchers mechaincs begin to suffer. Nolan Ryan and Randy Johnson are a couple of names that come to my mind when asked of power pitchers who were able to stay healthy the majority of their careers. They were able to repeat their mechaincs every time they threw a pitch, and that is why they were able to stay healthy the majority of their careers. When you see these young power arms like Liriano suffer from an elbow injury, the first thing that jumps out of my head is their mechaincs are garbage. Liriano throwing 95+mph fastball's with a mid 80 slider with bad mechaincs is asking for an arm injury. Obviously Kerry Wood would be another example of this. I agree with Bruno on the fact pitchers baby their arms these days. Throwing more often will put more arm strength on you, and in the end will allow you to throw deeper into ball games. But mechaincs are key to every single pitcher if they want to remain healthy in their careers.

I highly doubt that is the reason.

Izzy is a stud at SS.

Jose Bautistata to start at Third for the Pirates!
baseball7897 replied to Jake's topic in General Baseball Talk
Is Matt Capps going to be the Pirates closer? I think he could be a really valuable set up man for a contending team. -
My 50+ votes for the Astros should help them win it again. :twisted:

Arm angle. That sounds even better.
