It Wasn't Perfect, But That Performance Was Completely Buehrle

Those of you hoping for a repeat performance on the anniversary of Mark Buehrle's perfect game were disappointed early -- Buehrle lost his bid for perfection in the second inning. But he still turned in a Buehrle-like performance, scattering 4 hits and walking none while striking out only two in a briskly paced complete game. It was everything we love about Buehrle, as if we needed any reminder tonight.

Thanks Burls.

For the record, line dancing wasn't as bad as I though it would be...

and I didn’t realize where I was when I pulled down my pants. My balls were starting to chafe and I need to do some serious adjusting.

Funny thing is that I don’t remember the acoustic guitar being in the room. Hooray for alcomahal!

Also, who was it that pulled his pants down in Milwaukee after sliding into first? I remember he played every position one game. (and note my lame attempt to rip off his explanation)

Could the A's play in a more fan-unfriendly park?

It’s like they built the park with keeping the fans as far away from the action as possible as the main goal.

I love how they seem to have said, “Eh, the hell with the upper deck. Just cover those seats, so we don’t have to clean them.”

that park was actually pretty nice. you used to see the mountains in the background…. i was there in 1992…. ( i remember because I got esteban beltre and dale sveum’s autographs)…. it wasn’t the best park by any means but it also wasn’t the dump that it is now.

actually, the more I think about it the more I think he should stay closer

Ozzie usually only brings him in at the top of an inning when we have a lead. If we put him into a setup man role then he’s probably coming into higher leverage situations, men on base in the 7th/8th etc. He can’t K anyone with any consistency anymore, I think he does less damage just keeping him in his current role. I’d rather have Thornton or Putz coming into the game when we need the big strikeout in a tough situation.

It’s not like if Putz or Thornton closes they’re going to dfa Jenks. He’s going to be pitching the same amount of innings, with his WHIP he does less damage coming in with no one on.

Based on my less than sophisticated reading of fangraphs

the issue is his walks and line drive percent are up.

He also has a crazy high BABIP compared to the past which suggests bad luck but could be in part because of the increase in line drives and ground balls.

Why does Cooper let Bobby fuck around with so many pitches? Off the top of my head he uses the two seamer, four seamer, cutter, curve, change up.

these should be his 2 primary pitches

the rest should be used sparingly.

I agree with this

if anything his biggest problem seems that he’ll lose feel for non-fastball pitches and even fastball command. he doesn’t get that many reps that he can use that kind of arsenal.

exactly

He doesn’t have the same command anymore. But what the hell, if Joe Borowski can chalk up 40 saves then yo Bobby da man. Maybe we can sign and trade him if he’s a world series hero.

So prove it Bobby

Maybe Jenks needs to pitch with a chip on his shoulder. He wants to prove doubters wrong, do it on the field and then everyone will shut up. If it works I’m all for it.

alright. i'm off to indy to check out the knights.

let’s see how the AAA club does v. dana eveland, the white sox killer. (this year in 2 starts v. white sox 2 wins, 13 ip, 5 h, 2 er.)

also, eveland doesn’t look thrilled to be in indy, does he?

hey larry, do you have anything you want me to tell donny lucy?

hey swisher...........you know.

You're going tonite?

It’s been a battle all week talking my wife into going. It’s been hot like a mutha down here all week, the thought of sitting in the sun in 105 heat index and watching two minor league teams go mano y mano somehow doesn’t appeal to her very much. “Stop whining, you’ll love it!”

fwiw Sales pitched last night, they’ve been running him out there for an inning every other day since he went to Charlotte. He was the main reason I wanted to see them.

i'm going with my wife and a friend. i tried to ask you in yesterday's game thread about potential traffic problems due to the 400 but figured you missed it.

you wouldn’t have to sit in the sun for a 7 pm start, just sit down the 3rd base line.

hoping to see flowers (lucy played yesterday) and morel.
yes, hot. i’m in urbana. hot. nasty storms supposed to come through this afternoon/evening and cool things off. tomorrow and monday are supposed to be nice.

hey swisher...........you know.

I'm sorry didn't see anything last night, the posting was fast and furious

You shouldn’t have any problems with traffic today. Be careful tomorrow, to get back to 74 you’ll have to fight thru the raceday traffic around the Speedway. Not sure if I’m going tonite yet, we’re going to Cincinnati next weekend and I’m definitely taking her to a Reds game. Two games in this weather will cost me at least 4 chickflicks. Send me an email at wolverinepete at the yahoo domain and we’ll trade cell phones – but let me guess, you’re wearing a Buehrle jersey tonite?

tell t-flow i have had him on my fantasy minors team since he was a brave

but Im probably going to have to trade him because I promoted Carlos Santana this year.

On second thought, never mind.

He had a bunch of errors in Minny - that's why he can't DH.
