Cheat's are often obscure, but this one is a bad omen.

Almost like it was mailed in, or a Sunday Sweep lineup from Ozzie.

curious lineup, with Rios the DH and Viciedo at 3B

with mark starting, I would have went with a defensive minded lineup of Q dh, Jones in right, Rios in CF and Vizquel at 3B, but whatevs.

Viciedo did well last night at the plate, let’s hope he manages to not shit all over himself at 3B for MB.

by madvillian on Jul 28, 2010 6:37 PM CDT reply actions  

2 doubles earned him the start, especially since he can't hit righties.

And I think you need Omar for Pheddy’s start tomorrow. Though Pheddy may disagree after his last one.

Tank is from Cuba so he hates righties

I do think it’s smart to get him ABs against lefties and build some confidence. Back in the mid 90s I recall the Indians using Thome, Giles, and some others in that capacity. I don’t think Thome was a full time player until he had parts of 4 or 5 MLB seasons under his belt. Manny Ramirez dominated lefties and was so-so against righties in his first couple years. Tank can hit. That much seems clear.

i never understand the old timers talking about being hit by pitches so often.

moose was hit more than 6 times in a season once, when he was hit 8 times in 1961. i understand brushbacks were probably more prevalent/effective as they weren’t wearing helmets until whatever year.
i know some stuff must have been written about hit by pitch frequency but i’m not going to look it up right now.

so ok. here’s my conclusion though. it seems like old timers exaggerate how often they have been hit by pitches when there is probably evidence to the contrary. anyone agree? know of any info on the subject?

Buehrle's fine.

And no, I’m not comfortable with only 3 real starters. But Hudson has proven nothing, and having a huge bat like Dunn’s in there would augment the extra runs surrendered by what we expect would be a lesser pitcher.

Dunn’s bat is worth the gamble.

When is the last time

Dunn has had a meaningful at bat in a game of any real consequence? I don’t know, to me I just don’t see the pressing need for a “hot power bat”. Or seeing Dunn propel us to a Championship. Hell Andruw Jones has like 14 home runs. He’s provided us with that.

AJ at 4.5 million a year seems crazy to me

John Buck got what? 2.25 million?

I’m not saying this like “random all star” is a great bargain!

I’m just saying that if you look at the Royals and what they did last year:

They let the two good young catchers who seemed ready to break out both walk so that they could sign grizzled vet Jason Kendall for more money than the other two got combined.

I think in most cases whatever the Royals do, the opposite is probably a good idea.

for us that would be letting AJ walk and looking for a young catcher who hasn’t quite established himself yet. (it seems like they learn to hit much later than all other positions)

DJ claimed Farmio's lips were moving to mouth an opinion that he wasn't sharing on air. Farmer said he hadn't said anything, what is he talking about? DJ is relentless, keeps telling him he saw him, yada yada. He's like a child how he's so provoking...

…spending minutes dwelling on Farmer moving his lips, like it’s a bfd anyway.

Finally, DJ called him Pinocchio because someone must be pulling the strings to move his lips.
And then in a terrible high voice screeches, “I’m a real boy!”

Farmer was obviously annoyed with him and just said, “He’s really lost it, folks.” Or something to that effect.
