TWiB 7/31 - 8/6

Recommended Posts

Guest Felonies!

I hope Doug Mirabelli does very well in Jason's stead. Not just because it's crucial that Boston wins the majority of August and September's games, but rather because I know if he doesn't do well, somewhere, there WILL be a headline that read "'BELLI FLOPS."

My god, Beltran's just been sick the last month. He's closing in on 100 RBI and is among the ML leaders in homers. He's finally starting to look like he was worth the contract.

And I don't mean to dwell on this Cedeno thing, but another reason Ronny isn't playing second tonight: he doesn't have a second baseman's glove...and it's going to take several days to get him one. No, I am not making this up.

 

I guess we're supposed to forget all of Hendry's talk about Cedeno being ready to play second as recently as last night. I hate this team.

I like how Izturis made his debut with bad baserunning. It must have to do with the hats or something.

"The Hammer" Josh Willingham hits a two run pinch hit HR off Billy Wagner to take down the Mets.

:)

 

That makes 5 HR in 6 games for him.

I knew something was up when Bradford and Heilman were mowing the Marlins down in the 7th and 8th. The Marlins never go down that easy. And of course Wagner blows it in the 9th on a walk off by Josh Willingham.

That's fucking hilarious, because he's a good baserunner.

After Saturday:

"Looks like we need Chris Speier to teach Baserunning 101!"

 

After Sunday:

"So Dusty, did you guys do Baserunning 101 this morning like you said?"

"nah dude"

It wasn't so much bad baserunning as it was lazy. He could've probably legged out a triple had he not walked along with his bat waiting to see if the ball was foul or not.

 

Nice to see Rich Hill finally look like the pitcher Hendry made unavailable in trades all those years.

Props to Francisco Cordero. Guy gave up a leadoff triple in the ninth of a 1-0 and although he loaded the bases, he wound up striking out the side to preserve the shutout...in Coors. Looks like we've got two more 1-0 games in progress.

The Astros got their 10th shutout of the season, winning 1-0 in San Diego. Hell of a game by both Pettitte and Jake Peavy. Lidge made things tense in the 9th, but struck out the side. The Astros have to go 37-18 to get 88 wins, which should win the wildcard, so they're in closer distance than in 2004 when they had to go 36-10 down the stretch. It can be done. I still wonder why they don't pitch Dave Borkowski more. All he's done over the past month or so is play "bullpen guard" at Wrigley and Petco.

A-Rod was the star of tonight's Yankee win.

 

It wasn't mentioned.

A-Rod 2-4. Double. SB. Started the Yanks offense. But, by all means, do hate.

my main man CARLOS hit for the cycle tonight. awesome. if he was a better fielder, he'd be one of the most underated shortstops in the game. offensively, he's the total package for the tigers. he's doing it all.

The Cubs are 7-3 in their last 10 games? How the hell is this happening?

My guess is they watched Mr. 3000 and suddenly think they can make a run for third place in the division!

The home plate umpire squeezing Burnett got the rally started.

 

QUIT YOUR FUCKING BITCHING!!! Burnett made a ton of fucking mistakes in that inning.

I'd imagine playing the Cardinals and Aramis going on a tear are the prime factors for the run.
