TWiB 6/26 - 7/2

Recommended Posts

Guest Felonies!

Okay, they've broken Ron Santo now. After freaking out about Pierre getting caught in a rundown ("SIGNS! SIGNS! Don't you people read the SIGNS?!?"), something happened where he just gave up and went "that's it. I can't get so excited about this team anymore. I've been watching this all year. I have to settle down."

Pat: "Well, Ron, remember, you'll be singing Take Me Out To The Ballgame for the 7th inning stretch today!"

Ron: "Oh, great."

The Braves announcers were saying in a round about way that the Braves had 3 all-stars. At least I think that's what they said, I didn't quite catch it all. But I think they said McCann and Andruw are on the team, and a 3rd guy I missed. I'd guess maybe that's Renteria if we actually do have 3.

Let's see....

...

Carlos Marmol.

 

My prediction...'Stros 857-Cubbies 0.

 

In other news, Francisco Liriano is having another excellent game. He's gone 7 innings against the Brewers, giving up three hits no runs and striking out 10 while only walking one. I know he's just a rookie, but I think he deserves to start the All-Star Game.

Yeah, he looked good against us in that one game last series at MMP. I swear if we lose 1-0 with Rocket on the mound, I'll eat my hat.

Ok, why the fuck did Aaron Fultz start. They seriously started a terrible lefty specialist/middle reliever.

 

It's almost as if they wanted to give the bullpen a head start.

I was mystified too, but Fultz has been really good in the bullpen the last two seasons.

Yea, they talked about how Renteria had a fishing trip planned All Star Weekend that he might have to cancel and if that Andruw and McCann were going with him, they would have to cancel to.

 

It was really funny

A's get swept by the D-Backs who had lost 20 of their 23 coming into the series. Nick Swisher's gone into a horriffic slump and Eric Chavez is playing like he's 38 instead of 28. That 15 out of 17 run they had might be the lone hot streak this year.

He's sucked this year.

He's sucked this year.

1. A 4.25 ERA is above league average. Taking the park into consideration, Fultz has an ERA 9% above the league.

 

2. Fultz's peripherals are excellent. A 9.0 K/9 ratio along with just 14 walks in 44 innings pitched. He's simply been a little unlucky with his hits allowed.

Yeah, the Mets won't be sniffing that World Series Championship until they get a more reliable pitching staff. These interleague games have proved that.

 

Soler isn't cutting it. It's only a matter of time before El Duque collapses.

And Heilman places a pitching curse on the team the likes they haven't seen since Armando Benitez.

I have a feeling A-Rod might get drilled his next time up. Will be interesting

 

Indeed.
