    Whoever does the graphics for CSN San Fran needs to be fired. There's red accents everywhere you need to look at something. When the bases are empty you can't tell if it's telling you if there's 1st and 3rd, and you can't read the radar gun readings without doing a double take.

    Yeah, when I drove through Oklahoma the only thing I saw were Valero stations and Noel Devine running all over the place.

    OKC Dark Knights

    Yeah, I'm not sure how that keeps happening either. The only thing I can figure is that he has a very good eye and lets a lot of pitches go that are inside off the edge, so that leaves a smaller margin for error between pitching inside and leaving the ball right over the plate. If he keeps lofting opposite field home runs they're going to have to do something different.

    It's not really a day after a night game in the true sense, since it's a 4 PM local start. I bet we see Soto, since he's DHed a bit recently to stay fresh, we're facing a good pitcher that necessitates his bat in the lineup, and he's been red hot lately.

    Okay, so one person came up with a package for Lincecum that had Marquis in it, and even then it had multiple qualifiers and also thought to swap Hill in for Marshall. That's far from the "Marquis + minor leaguers = Lincecum" line you were purporting that was apparently mentioned on several occasions.

    I've been pushing Fontenot since 2005, I ain't stopping now.

    It's hard to tell. Mainly because they don't exist.

    Really? It's better than the alternative of letting him walk. It might not beat out other offers, but it's hardly a ridiculous offer.

    From a recent Hal McCoy column:
  11. Transmogrified Tiger
    Attention Jerry Manuel: When you are tied in the bottom half of the 9th inning and beyond, you should use your best relievers, not your worst. Every half inning in that situation is a save situation.
  12. Transmogrified Tiger
    Yes, he's at 3B and singled in his first at bat.
  13. Transmogrified Tiger
    Gallagher, Cedeno, and 2 of Veal, Ceda, Colvin, Samardzija, Hill, Marshall. Alternatively, Gallagher, Cedeno, and Pie.

    e-mailing to FJM immediately... You made the cut, wtg
  15. Transmogrified Tiger
    My bad, I didn't realize there was an off day on Monday.
  16. Transmogrified Tiger
    Given the quotes on what's happening to Marshall, it would appear to be Dempster on Tuesday and Z on Wednesday.
  17. Transmogrified Tiger
    Sulley said that.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    With 13 pitchers you only have 4 guys to pinch hit, and one of them is the catcher. He probably didn't want to burn any more pinch hitters than absolutely necessary.

    Lots more details in the International Free Agent Market thread. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=46650

    Lansford is roster filler.
  21. Transmogrified Tiger
    Nope. 2007 Theriot 1st: .300/.342/.420/.762, 161 PA's 2nd: .253/.324/.310/.634, 312 PA's 7th: .257/.350/.343/.693, 41 PA's 8th: .280/.321/.320/.641, 56 PA's

    It looks like Marquis will be matched up against Daryl Thompson, who's making his 3rd start today, and hasn't been very good(6 BB to 4 K, 1.80 WHIP). On the other hand, Sunday's matchup is against Wellemeyer, who's been injured and knocked around recently. Is Sunday's game the Sunday Night game? Maybe Lou thinks it's funny to have the same guy pitch in that game two weeks in a row.
  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    Yeah, it sounds like Ascanio to Iowa when Z comes up, then Marshall(with a small chance of it being Gallagher) going to the pen after the weekend.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    When Johnson comes back, it'll be Murton or Patterson. My guess is Murton, since Johnson makes Murton more redundant, and Patterson was called up in front of him. EPatt's LF snafus may change that though. When Z comes back, it gets trickier. They were talking on the radio Sunday about how either Marshall or Gallagher could keep the 5th rotation spot when Z returns, and the other may be headed to the bullpen. Marshall went on to have a pretty solid start, and Gallagher pitches again on Thursday. With Lou's comments on Gallagher, and the odds of him pitching well in AT&T against the Giants offense, I'm guessing he stays in the rotation. Then the question becomes, do you send down Marshall, Ascanio, or Cotts. There's good reasons to choose all 3 of them, so I have no idea which one it'd be. If Marshall keeps the rotation gig, then the choice becomes Gallagher v. Ascanio, and I'd think Ascanio goes to Iowa in that case.
