    Why? Solely fantasy purposes. I have no problem with him getting no-hitters when I'm not facing him. Ah, should have known.
  2. Roast
    Why?

    6 innings. 5 innings. Whoops. Got ahead of myself, somehow.

    Oh, sweet.

    Well, he certainly hasnt been AS bad as he was with Prior/Wood.... Out of Volquez' 9 starts this year, he threw 100+ pitches 5 times (107,104,106,110,108). Last year out of his 33 starts, 22 of them he threw 100+ pitches, topping out at 121 on Sept 13 @ Arizona. He also had FOURTEEN starts last year in which he went 110 or more pitches, including ALL BUT ONE of his starts in september (117, 119, 121, 111, 98) ...but he definitely hasn't tried to protect Volquez' arm. Volquez is a good pitcher when healthy- so he went deep into a lot of games last year. I've looked at Dusty's work in Cincy and using stuff like PAP over at baseballprospectus he is- like you said- not like he was with the Cubs. I'm not saying he's innocent, mind you- I just don't see the level of evidence someone can build against him with other teams. With the Reds he doesn't appear to have run them in the ground. Maybe not, but I still think you can make an argument about Volquez' September 08. 110+ pitches in four consecutive starts?

    6 innings.

    Bud Norris has a no-no through 5 for the Astros. He has, however, given up 2 walks.
  8. Roast
    eeeewwwwwwwwwwwww

    Yay, Houston up 1-0 on a Miguel Tejada single.

    Oswalt's back problems. Oooohhhh yeah.

    Why the hell is Norris starting? Wasn't he in the bullpen when we played the stro's?

    The marmol story really saddens me. The guy has the nastiest slider I've ever seen and it just sucks that he randomly goes into stretched where he can't throw a strike to save his life.

    I dislike this game time as I am bored and want to watch baseball.
  15. Roast
    True.
  16. Roast

    I would LOVE to see him playing in the bigs for Milwaukee.

    There's a reason. This guy is a big pull hitter. Still kinda hilarious, though.
  23. Roast
    About a billion percent. Interesting move by Lou..
  24. Roast
    Nice.

    My god this game will never end.
