If Lilly can keep the shutout? Leave CC in for 200 8-) -
A couple years ago he was going to be the answer at SS, not a bench warmer with one foot back in the minors. But he's not playing everyday. He's not presently the answer at SS. He's a backup middle infielder. The 2nd to last bat off the bench. And for some reason waste a lot of time loathing him for the oxygen he breathes. I think you're overstating most people's feelings about him, but I can't speak for everyone. For myself, I want better for this baseball team but nothing more.

Doesn't Reed have decent numbers against CC? He looks so lost here.
-
I'm suprised CC throws any fastballs at all to Sori.

Could just call him 63 career OPS+ Ronny if that is a better nickname. I'd have no problem with that. You wanna argue that Ronny isn't a good ballplayer, have at it, Lord knows you've got the major league #s to back it up. If Ronny was truly as untalented as some want to believe, AND was some Ned Yost-like buffoon when it came to intelligence; He'd be a Tony Pena Jr. hitter with Jack Cust level defense. I just really don't understand why things need to be made up about Ronny, when you can simply say something simple like he hasn't hit at the major league level, and other than a ~2 month stretch, he doesn't look like he has an approach that's conducive to becoming one. Here's my deal: while I don't argue that you might have a point about Cedeno getting somewhat of a bad rap defensively compared to a guy like Theriot (I haven't run the numbers mind you), I also believe strongly that if Ronny would post some kind of major league-level numbers at the plate he'd get more leeway. It might not be right, I'll acknowledge that. But Ronny's got to give this team something to hang its hat on at some point.

Yost might leave him out there for 140 for all we know.
-
Soto just looked overmatched.
-
I'm close. I was a big supporter of his, but I just can't take it anymore. Ryan Theriot's made far more braindead plays this year than Cedeno ever has. It's a lot easier to accept when a guy is hitting like Theriot is, but to single out Ronny as braindead when the guy next to him is even worse at those things seems odd. Theriot's played more in the first half of this season than Cedeno ever has.
-
Well, I'll take it but it was probably better strategy to walk him.
-
I'm close. I was a big supporter of his, but I just can't take it anymore. Some people tried to note 2 years back that he wasn't thinking out there. He hasn't gotten any better at keeping his brain in the game from what I'm seeing.
-
Oh my goodness this is shaping up so bad. Gonna be 2 on base for Braun GD it.
-
That was entirely horrible.
-
Sabathia's gonna reach 130 after 6? And even if he was I don't think Yost even cares about CC's pitch count unless we're talking ridiculous levels.
-
Yeah, not a real good start to the inning.
-
I hate it when its a big game, and you get a homer, and you get this bittersweet feeling because it's only a solo shot and you feel almost like it's a wasted opportunity.
-
Man for a runner on base for that sori homer.
-
Those with broadband and less than 100,000X200,000 resolution thank you.
-
CC has a career as the High Life truck driver if he wants it.
-
He's pouring acid on it because he has no soul.
-
I have a feeling it's going to be like that each time Ted faced Braun/Fielder, as he tries to nibble his way out of giving up the gaffer.
-
Hart's OBP is down to .328 this year.
-
Ugh, I don't like this.
-
Not quite but it still hurts.
