Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death

NLCS Game #2: Ubaldo Jimenez vs. Doug Davis

Gvf_tiny by Russ on in Rockpile Comment 461 comments

The Rockies won what was probably the toughest part of this series last night by beating Brandon Webb. Ubaldo gets another shot at a playoff game and who doesn't want to see him match his first game? OK, we won't want the four walks or another power outage, but 6+ innings and five strikeouts, sure.

Go Rockies!

Just getting a jump on things so we can also
comment on the ALCS, tied one to one now in the bottom of the first. Neither Beckett or Sabathia (the premiere pitching matchup of the postseason according to the East Coast) have looked particularly impressive thus far.

They recover
1-2-3 for both, including Sabathia K-ing the side.

I really don't care about that.
In my mind, the Rockies have already proven they can beat the Red Sox this season, so I want to see what we can do against Cleveland.

Oh, and it helps that I live in Cincy now and would be able to do what it takes to get into one of those games. :)

Besides
if it was a Cleveland/Colorado WS and God forbid we didn't win, I wouldn't have to kill myself to avoid seeing the insane hero-worshiping and the magnification of the considerable arrogance of the Crimson Hose and their fans. I don't mind the Indians.

It's kind of fun to watch them get dejected
I must admit, part of my favorite part of my trip to Boston this summer was enduring endless "Rockies suck" taunts as we were whooping them. They just couldn't see it coming, and then after the game they got all depressed and drunk and I kind of wanted to kick them some more. This could be my metaphorical chance if we see them again.

Same here
Red Sox are my least favorite team in sports, and whether others agree or not, they're ruining baseball (along with the media bias). At least for me.

by Slica on Oct 12, 2007 6:34 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I totally agree
They are the same as, and just as evil as the Yankees..maybe worse, at least many fans of the Yankees know they are rich, spoiled, and obnoxious.   I throw the Cubs right in there as well.

Bobby Kielty singles on a line drive stung to the right field, it was cold and the winter wind swept through his locks as he rounded the base. David Ortiz scored. Manny Ramirez scored, but felt pangs of regret for leaving Martha at the station last night..."

Lofton, Gutierrez, Blake
That double by Casey notwithstanding, I really don't know if that would be the toughest lineup we would face this postseason with those three at the bottom, and Peralta being kind of one dimensional. I'd rank Philly ahead for sure, and the D-backs would be behind both except for maybe when Owings pitches. I think this Cleveland team has more holes than I've been led to believe by these Ohio newspapers I read.

I actually doubt they'll get past Boston, particularly now.

by Rox Girl on Oct 12, 2007 7:15 PM MDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

"except for when Owings pitches"
Joke's on you, because we cloned Owings. He'll now be starting at every position.

Granted, against you folks, we're going to have to find something to do with all these Brandon Webbs we cloned as well... :-\

Sexson
what a stiff.   M's are one of my "back up" teams due to all the time I spent in the NW the last few years.  I can't stand Sexson...He's a major waste.  And I'm not sure what M fans see in Beltre either.

I know a few who were upset when he left, but I tried to tell them I was more upset.

by Rox Girl on Oct 12, 2007 7:26 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I think
Its more to do with:

-The black hole that is Sexson
-The Damon arm that Vidro's power equals
-The disappointment of Lopez (my fav M, but man)
-Trading Soriano for Ramirez (my former fav M)
-Jeff Weaver
-Adam Jones being called up WAY late and promptly benched to 'learn' instead of playing like he should...he was mistreated BADLY
-Raul Ibanez trying to play LF at Safeco (while Jones is on the bench)
-Rick White pitching in high leverage situations over Sherrill, Green, Putz, and the rest of our awesome bullpen
-Asdrubal Cabrera pulling a Carlos Guillen (lucky for us Eduardo Perez was a GEM and Ramon Santiago got to play in the WS...at 2B beside Guillen, the guy we traded for him)

So yeah, Beltre wasn't too bad this year, thus he stands out more in a season filled with overachieving.

Here's what I heard
Beltre? Beltre is far down the list On the List of M's screw ups/problems that need fixin.

Now im convinced we will bolt the minute he is elgible for FA...to the Diamondbacks.

If your team is smart enough...offer us your best reliever. Despite our very good bullpen, im sure the Ms will trade you Balentien. Not sarcasm, im dead serious. Thats 30 HRs a year for you.

Hey, so far you've got the best bullpen
Out of the teams we've faced, and if we don't get past you guys, you'll have the best rotation, too. If Sabathia keeps on pitching like this and Cleveland somehow makes it past Boston, maybe you'd win that title even when we do win three more here. You've got to admit your lineup will see better days in the next few years than it does now.

Dodgers are letting the veterans run everything. Some of the veterans ripped into the two young hitters that were practically carrying the team.

Let's chase Davis here
Make them use a reliever and a PH in the bottom half to eat through their bench.

One new pitcher
and the game speeds up 200%.

Im starting to use Davis' windup as a commercial break.

Anyone get the feeling
Uball's been learning how to pitch even when he doesn't have his A++ command?
Yes, those guys.

If his minor league career has taught him anything
Hopefully it's that. I don't think this is a newly acquired education, but a school of hard knocks one.

Maybe not new
but I think he's been taking a crash course in it this season after the callup, and he's responding well. I remember a few starts this year that didn't exactly go this well.
Yes, those guys.

verdict on Taveras so far?
Two tough plays in center, but the only extra base hit of the series and a SB.
