  1. No, he doesn't. He's not without heat though, he consistently touches the low 90's.
  2. People who need an excuse not to like him, and have no other proof besides the (unfortunatley) accepted myth that he is a poor defender. Walker is a poor defender, that's no myth.
  3. I'm sure he was already up and warming once Ohman retired Lopez in the 7th. Especially with Griffey and Dunn to follow. Makes sense for him to come into the game in that spot. There's plenty of time to get Guzman up during the last half inning, it was 6-2 after the first HR, and 8-2 after the second HR with only one out. Besides today, he's only pitched once in this series and that was on Friday. He'll be fine. Today makes twice in4 games by my count. I don't doubt that. I care about Guzman, who's going to rot away if he's not even going to be used in situations like this.
  4. Last year, Fox was coming back from injury and wasn't able to pitch several days in a row. That fact was lost on Dusty, who threw him 3 times in 4 days(64 total pitches) and he threw his arm out for good on that last outing. I'm not defending Dusty or anything, but Fox did say he told Dusty he could go and pitch that night he blew his elbow for good. Of course he did, everyone tells the manager they can keep going. EDIT: Forgot to mention that the Cubs were winning 10-3 in the 9th when Fox came into that game.
  5. Portugal was pretty unlucky too, with chances like the Ronaldo header and Ronaldo's strike off the ground ball you're going to score a goal a lot of times.
  6. Is it like 1.500 against RHP? Geez. Well, it's in the .950's overall, so I'm guessing it's about .900

  8. Dunn now has a 1.056 OPS against LHP for the year.
  9. Eyre's now pitched in 4 of 5 games. It's a blowout, let Angel pitch por favor.
  10. Pierre's OPS up to .584!!!! This is the week he gets to .600, I just know it.
  11. haha, Ronaldo LOVES to dribble and according to Tommy Smyth, "has more moves than Mariah Carey"
  12. Figo creates a goal with an impressive burst. And this PBP guy's accent may be too much for me.
  13. Milton almost all the way to giving up 3 consecutive hits to the trifecta of awfulness.
  14. 82 pitches, he's got another inning in him.
  15. This should be England's theme song I wonder how many goals this thing goes up to. I think I'm at 18.
  16. YOU'RE DAVE ROSS, REMEMBER THAT YOU'RE A TERRIBLE BASEBALL PLAYER
  17. Last year, Fox was coming back from injury and wasn't able to pitch several days in a row. That fact was lost on Dusty, who threw him 3 times in 4 days(64 total pitches) and he threw his arm out for good on that last outing. I believe his last outing was something like 30+ pitches. Everyone knew that he was an injury waiting to happen and that he only had so many bullets left in him. Dusty apparently never got the memo. 29 pitches the day after he threw 20.
  18. Well I guess we have to baby their arms then. Not letting our starters consistently throwing 120+ pitches isn't babying them in the slightest. That's an exaggeration and oversimplification of the argument.
  19. thank you Murton, now please start hitting some XBH.
  20. It's really as simple as that, and Dusty continually pushes the envelope with his starters.
