whats his scouting report?

Rather than “going negative” as to Redman starting, let’s start positive. Josh Fogg is NOT starting. He gave up 9 ER in 2 innings tonight to the Cubs, putting his ERA for the year at 13.91.

Go Redman! The wise personnel choice.

The rockies game is on the same channel as the yankees red sox game, which is currently 11-9 in the sixth as Latroy Hawkins attempts to give up more runs.

For Francis. He needs to dominate tonight. Also, Iannetta and Barmes are in a great position to impress for more playing time, and they need to show it.

nice

the last time he hit a ball hard.

scoring early is always fun. We should follow it up by scoring in every inning. How fun would that be?

we got one, at least.

awesome inning

That was a pretty nice inning. Nothing fancy, just getting guys out easily. Good things happen when you don’t get behind in the count all the time.

8-hole hitting by Iannetta.

Nice to see Iannetta hitting. I have big hopes for the kid this year.

Working the count a bit before getting the bunt down. I’ll take that.

We love him.

7 more innings to go…

That works, unless you’re Red Sox v. Yanks (11-9 in the 6th)

0 fer his last 18….oy

Not saying Wily shouldn’t be starting and batting lead-off tomorrow, but this is a nice change. Good to see Tulo hit a rope, even if it was caught.

I’m choosing to believe that bad luck liners are the first sign of the turn-around.

I’m having fun tonight. Anybody else just enjoying the game?

looks really good. Not trying too hard, just pitching to bats

Tulo & Hunter Pence are in absolute funks.
Chris Young is hitting HR’s, but his avg. is barely over .200
Ryan Braun’s way off his pace from a year ago.
Who will break the Sophomore Slump first?
My money’s on Tulo.

I’m watching a baseball game and a hockey game at the same time. I’d say it’s polar opposites in terms of how the games are played (basic fast-slow comparison).

I know they look like meatballs, gents

crush one here

=[

It would have been awesome to at least make it interesting and go 4-5 innings, but I’ll still take the runs we already have.

Why is it I’m more confident in Redman coming into tonight than I have been with any of the other starters save maybe Cook? I think we did find us a left-handed Fogg. The youngsters can be shaky or spectacular, but the old(er) horse at the bottom just gets it done with minimal stuff. Here’s hoping that U-Ball and Morales can take away something from this and work on becoming pitchers rather than throwers. I just don’t know what’s up with Francis though.

Needs to get an out here.

Okay, the question on everybody’s mind has to be: Would Nix have gotten that?

This game is becoming filled with omnomnomz

Making a little ripple here.

that wasn’t ideal.

Now I know I’m too easy on Clint, but I’m getting close to saying he’s the man at 2B. Which kinda poses a dilemma. I like Nix at 2B too, but I don’t see him being capable of playing the other infield positions required of a bench player…. And he’s out of options….. If this were a rebulding year, it’d be easy to carry a limited role rookie on the bench…. But should this Barmy resurgence continue…. What do you do with Nix? Too soon to worry about such things of course, but I’m just saying.

WTF, basic fundamentals. Horrible bunt attempts and bunt in the end. And probably “half assed” it up the line.

Redman takin down the big man that Troy Renck talked up so much this morning on ESPN.

My gosh, he needs to seriously work on hitting. Trying to pull everything it seems.

is officially frustrating me. We just want you to be so good, Tulo. Why do you have to make this so hard, man?
