Why is Geoff Blum ahead of Pence in this line up?

A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.
Probably true
That inning went quick.

Better father-son combo:
The Tony Gwynns or the Jose Cruzes?

I have to go with the Gywnns
There was something poetic about watching him hit that walk off against the Padres in 2007 when he was with the Brewers.

Carlos Lee on the bases...
I’d wager that Carlos Lee has made the most outs on the bases this season. I love El Cab-horse-o, but his nickname rings true… he runs like he has horse blinders on. Oh, and also, Cecil Cooper should be fired. Discuss?
I think you'll find the answer around here is likely to be a resounding
YES

and it's not like many of us were calling for his head before the season, either
I think there was a consensus (at least amongst the regulars) that Coop was at least learning what he does wrong and fixing those problems. But then he started doing the same shit again.

It feels like a redux of 2008 all over again
Only things don’t seem to be getting much better this time around.

welcome
if you stay in the game threads long enough, you’ll find that the vast majority of us think Cecil Cooper is an awful manager who needs to be fired immediately.
And Carlos needs liposuction or something.

Before the season he played in the - what was it - Caribbean World Series
or something like that, and was hitting HRs, played in the WBC, and was hitting HRs.
He has only 13 fewer BB than all of last season
He has 12 fewer homers, too.
IT’S THE STEROIDS LOL!

They argue that instead of having the camera offset to the right of the pitcher by about 15 degrees, we should have the camera directly in line with the pitcher and the plate.
Okay, it distorts it for the t.v. fan...

interesting definition of "pitching" you have there, DQ.
Of course, Bill James had a recent article about how we should count offense towards defensive contributions, so I guess it works both ways.

Well
It’d would help him get the W. And since that’s all that ESPN cares about…

hey, the Astros employed Jason Smith for the better part of two months.
It’s clear we don’t care about those things.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
Because offense and defense are outweighed by grit, pluck, veteraniness, and playing the game the “right” way.

veteraniness...
is the funniest descriptor I have ever heard.
by Fiction Rider on Jun 29, 2009 9:40 PM CDT up reply actions
I had a tough choice
between veteraniness and veteranity. I’m tempted to go with the second because Coop seems to focus on veteraniness so much that it drives us to insanity.
Jason Michaels...
he hits like a pitcher, and fields like a DH.

Carlos Lee and Prince Fielder will rule the NL
provided they tell Prince they’re veggie-style, I guess.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
Well,
and it minimizes the amount of time your good pitchers actually play.
Personally, I think there’s a good argument to be made for going back to the four-man rotation.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
I like the old school
Personally I think part of the problem with pitchers hurting all the time is they are coddled too much…
"now you chunkin' in there.."
All West Coast Games
should move this fast. Jim Deshaies should be nicknamed mumbles. Can anyone understand him?
My only Tim Raines #1 baseball card
is from his time on the O’s, so my perception of his career is mightily distorted
That's the second time Oswalt has hit Eckstein this year
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
If I remember
the first was a 95 mph fastball to the shoulder.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
speaking of hitting batters
watching the highlight shows, the reliever the Cards gave up for DeRosa, Perez, hit Alexei Ramirez in the head, then nearly hit the next batter in the head, but did get his wrist. Also threw a wild pitch. Really looked ugly – hope the Indians get a good PTBNL
Dale Berra
he played with Marty Mantle, Bill Ruth, and Lou Gerhig III.

I suggested it
but I left the decision up to you, since it would likely not cause any change and be more likely to just drive us insane as fans

1) Find Job
2) Make sure we know just often Coop pisses us off.

struggling to throw curve for strikes
sit on the FB….
I think I got that started about Cooper...
The reason I found this site, and signed up, was originally to complain about Clueless Cooper. I am really enjoying messaging during the game.
but...
COOPER IS AN IDIOT, and HE DOESN’T EVEN SEE IT.

Not necessarily
Gonzalez was the power hitter. Roy has two strikeouts on the current batter

IBB
In the 4th inning….never a good idea to put runners on base….is there even a matrics for IBB in the 4th inning
"now you chunkin' in there.."
Except for the Wild Pitch
Is a score on a wild pitch an earned or unearned run?
(P.S. – we’ll never knwow for sure what would have happened , but Cooper’s decision to walk Gonzalez did not backfrie on the Astros)

yeah, well
it was still a bad decision. Not looking both ways before you cross the highway might not kill you 100% of the time, but you still shouldn’t do it.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
I know you've got the run probability chart
but that only tells you what the odds are like for an average pitcher facing an average batter, and that wasn’t the situation
then pitch around him
I can buy that. But I don’t like straight-up walking him.

Pudge's 7th HR
The last time Brad Ausmus had 7 HR in a full season was the year 2000. Ausmus only hit 7 HR or more 3 times since 1993.
Ausmus...
I am glad that Dartmouth hole in the line-up is gone. I sure am glad he “called such good games” though. Barf. When someone says a catcher calls good games, it’s code for he hits under .200 and sucks.
by Fiction Rider on Jun 29, 2009 10:09 PM CDT up reply actions
meh
I’m willing to admit that we don’t have any good measurements of catcher defense, and so that might really have made up for his bad hitting.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
I believe that his game-calling was a difference-maker
but it’s not just chicks that dig the long-ball
see
that’s what I’m talking about. Controlling the running game isn’t all of a catcher’s defensive contributions.
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
Catching is a thankless position...
but the only requirements should be he stays healthy, hits .320 with 100 RBIs, and can throw the ball back to the pitcher without any major muck ups.
by Fiction Rider on Jun 29, 2009 10:15 PM CDT up reply actions
Well,
if you can get a great offensive catcher, then defense just isn’t an issue.
But defense is an undervalued commodity in baseball, and finding a catcher who can block the plate and keep balls in front of him and do all of what a catcher has to do on defense very well is possibly an acceptable substitute for a purely average catcher.

Carlos Lee Should Play Centerfield
and we can put Bourn and Pence on each side of him. They will have it covered.

It could be one, both or neither.

by Joe in Birmingham on Jun 29, 2009 10:39 PM CDT up reply actions
well
I’m not asking whether or not either is a likely scenario. Just what’s the more likely of the two.
I think it’s pretty clear Pudge just wants to play as long as he can. Besides, he has an outside shot at 3000 hits if he can stay in the game. But that would require a starting gig, and I’m pretty sure we won’t give him one.
On the other hand, I think Coop’s going to be fired by September, so there’s that.
