For the next four months, Reynolds can say he has just as many Cy Youngs as Tim Lincecum. Take that you 2006 draft skeptics. er..,
Go Rockies!

Better than
1-2 hanging breaking balls to leadoff hitters….GR is going to break his neck watching balls land in the seats before too long here.
Reynolds give up homers in his sleep...
When he’s shopping for groceries, out at the clubs, it’s what he does. Gives up the long ball, 24/7. That’s just how he rolls, Holmes.
Urgh… I don’t really like being wrong. I especially hate it when I’m wrong and stuff like this is the result. Get him back to the Springs.
How about
an old-school Coors game with some runs here, fellas?
Yorvit
suddenly on the clutch-train. I only got to watch the last few innings last night and I about died when Atkins didn’t go on the Baker flyball, thinking that with our rotten luck, that would certainly be the last chance to score. Nice to see Yorvit make the play, and nice to see the Rox survive a missed opportunity.
Wow
crickets chirping around here. nobody wants to be a part of our historic first series sweep?
Yeah
Nothing like a little batting practice on a nice looking Thursday afternoon. Reading the Giants lineup makes me think of the scene in Major League where they’re reviewing the list of spring training invitees…”I’ve never heard of half of these guys…this guy here is dead!”
SO Reynolds
how about not looking like you are pitching batting practice…umkay?

HOLY CRAP
Reynolds….putting 90 mph fastballs right down the middle belt high, will get you killed.

He needs an out pitch
Reynolds has as many out pitches as the batting practice pitcher had….none

Apodaca to the mound
Possible comments?
“Dude, you’re supposed to not let them score. Stop it.”
“I wish I had some good advice, but you know I have nothing to say here. So, you know, just take a break for a minute and let’s pretend like we’re saying important things.”
“Seen Indiana Jones yet?”
"You Know where Colorado Springs Sky Sox Stadium is?"
“I see you listened to Mark Redman”
“De La Rosa has a slurve that gets a K”

Nice
that last one pretty damn funny. Some others:
“Do you know Kevin Ritz?”
“John Wasdin had the cool “Way Back Wasdin” nickname because he gave up so many bombs…we need a good one for you. “Goodbye Greg?” Let me know if you think of something, I’d like to get this circulated before your next start.”
“Holliday just made $100 off Atkins, betting that you’d give up a bomb before you got a K. Do you want to know what other side bets are going on right now? I don’t think you do.”
"I think you are going to end up on the DL with a neck injury from watching those bombs go out"

So who is pitching Saturday?
I thought Hirsh would be ready but the paper said Hirsh would get something like 10 total starts before being recalled.
My guess: Mark Redman! Welcome back!

Do we get bonus points
for the more washed up a player is?
Colorado Rockies: Continuing a long tradition of playing meaningless games in June!
Wasn't he
the drummer from Kids Incorporated?
No I think he's this girls dad

"Hello, is it me you're looking for?"
“Nah, man. We’re looking for a good pitcher.”
So...
In order for the box score to be nicely symmetrical, we need to score 4 runs this inning. Do we have it in us?
Nice.
I put the game on and Holliday drives in two.

A: I have man crush on Holliday
B: I miss Matt already
C: I can smell Tacos from here

Ok
enough fun and games. Shut him down while this game is still winnable.
Reynolds
should be done after giving up two more runs.

So it looks like
the Rockies were planning starter by committee on Saturday.
But thanks to Reynolds outing today…..we might get Micah Bowie
Who I think invented a really big knife
Colorado Rockies: Continuing a long tradition of playing meaningless games in June!
So are the Rockies (or actually the Purple Row)
really thinking that Reynolds should go back down?
Colorado Rockies: Continuing a long tradition of playing meaningless games in June!
I was of the strong opinion
that he never should have been brought up in the first place. As for now? I have no idea about what the best course is. I will say that he does not appear to me to be ready for this level.
Replacement
I think it probably depends on who else there is. Or at least, when Hirsh is ready. I’d rather have Reynolds (even struggling) than have two rotation spots filled with 5th starters, washed-up veterans, starters by committee, etc. Once Hirsh is ready, there are more options.
You mean
that you don’t want Steve Trachsel pitching for the Rockies?

I'll take 3 more runs
for the Tacos!
greatest
promotion
EVER!

I missed them yesterday
I missed them by like 15 minutes (I thought it was earlier)
I missed it a couple of other times too.

Here comes
the guy that’s more valuable than Atkins. I know that I’m sure glad he’s batting, and not Atkins.
Burriss
Apparently Gameday has decided Burriss singled without ever actually being at bat. He’s a magician!
Bases loaded for Garrett.
Runs, Garrett, runs.
"Nuts!" - Gen. Anthony McAuliffe
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
Bases-clearing
double for Garrett! Wooo!!!
"Nuts!" - Gen. Anthony McAuliffe
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
yeah
guys with career batting averages of .303 aren’t near as valuable, as rangy CF’s
Colorado Rockies: Continuing a long tradition of playing meaningless games in June!
TACOS!
WHOO HOOO!
ok last night 1-0 after 9 innings…today 8-7 in the bottom of the 5th…..go figure
Colorado Rockies: Continuing a long tradition of playing meaningless games in June!
Say whatever you want about these old-school
Coors shootouts, but they are rarely boring…
And as if there wasn't already enough action
Incoming Manny Corpas!
It's sort of funny at the McCoven,
Whenever the Giants score it’s because of the hitting prowess of Fred Lewis or John Bowker overmatched the suckitude of Greg Reynolds, but whenever the Rockies score it’s because of the ballpark. Of course, these are the same teams that were tied 0-0 after 8 1/2 innings yesterday.
That's
precisely the opinion of every Dodger fan. Of course, looking at Piazza and Karros’ Coors numbers probably justify that view a bit…and didn’t Loney put up 10 RBIs there in one game? I guess its always a tough argument to win.
Now, let’s get a few more Coors-aided runs.
I noticed that...
Kind of ironic, considering everything.

Three runs...
Those runs to start the fifth have to count as much as leaving Atkins stranded to end it does.
yes
stil counts…but other than that a nice fat 0 for 9…yuck
this team is utter rubbish...

No doubt Hurdle will think it's a good idea
To put Corpas in for another inning…
Niiiice job of hitting there, fellas.

2 out hit
seriously did the Rockies pitchers get some kinda memo that we are now playing 2 outs = an inning?

Earth to Clint Hurdle:
Please take Manny out before this gets worse.

Hurdle ---
Um, Manny is not good for two innings. We have tried this experiment before. It has not worked. I do not see why it should work today.

Had to miss the game
due to work. Looks like I didn’t miss a whole lot. At least we won the series, which is progress.
We are all dead.
Reynolds
now with equal K/HR ratio. Not much else needs to be said there.
Tulo
0-3 tonight with 2 errors in Modesto. God I hope he isn’t Angel Berroa 2.0
Just got back from the game...
It was only an 8 hour drive roundtrip, so the Giant spanking was worth it. However, the weather was nice and my wife and kids insisted on taking me for Father’s Day. You know you have a good wife when she gets your butt out of bed on a day off to take you to a Rockies game. I thought the hometeam had a couple of chances to win despite the poor pitching by G-Rey, but Stewart couldn’t hit the lefty and Spilly couldn’t take the bat off his shoulder in the 9th (the umpire looked like he was calling an inside strike all game, and the 3rd strike to Spilbourghs looked way inside IMO).
I had fun however, here is a shot of me and my oldest son with my youngest son in the background.
Congratulations to Ken Griffey Jr. on his 600th HR!
