See, this is why I hate interleague play and the DH
We have Scott Podsednik. They have Gary Sheffield. NL teams don’t build their lineups to have a DH.
We have Hurdle......
who puts Pods into the lineup instead of Spilborghs. Is there any way to justify this?
Spilly
The last time Spilly was a DH he stunk up the joint (I think he was actually starting in the game he did well in more recently). That’s not to say he’s not a better option than Pods on any given day, but perhaps Hurdle is remembering that? I don’t know.
Whoa, nelly!
I just opened up Gameday and it’s a new version, with 3D! I’m not sure what to do with myself. I can’t wait to see what it looks like once the game actually starts.
It's been awhile
since the Rockies played a game with a decent start time.

Speak for yourself!
Heh. It’s 4pm and I’m still at work for at least another 1-1/2 hours. I quite prefer the West coast start times, so I’m actually at home for the whole game rather than following the first couple innings at work, missing the whole middle while I commute home, than catching the last couple innings when I get home.
She did before June '07.
She’s in Cincinnati now.

Right
I would hate them, too, if I were out east. But since of course it’s all about me, I hate the early evening start times. ;-)
Yeah, but
Sunday’s game starts at 10 a.m. for you. I’d love to watch baseball at 10 in the morning.

Sundays
It’s only slightly better than a noon (my time) start time on Sunday, but not by much. I have church on Sundays at noon and don’t get home until after 3, so normally I miss Sunday games entirely. But at least with the 10am, I can follow it for the bit of time in between my shower and when I leave.
Joining
the Church of Baseball would solve that. ;-)

Down early, again.

Jiminez throwing
batting practice, 3 roped balls…
every time
I convince myself that Jiminez is going to be good, he puts together an inning like this. Ugh.
RBI off a broken bat blooper.

Full count on Sheffield.
Get him out.

Jimenez has to
be at 40 pitches by now.

Whew!
That could have been a whole lot worse.

Nice play
by Hollimon and Cabrera.

Knew that
was a triple for Granderson as soon as he hit it.

That guy is a pest
We’ve only played the Tigers a few times, but that was enough for me to develop a dislike for him.
Three walks in two innings.
Might not be a long night for U-Ball.

for some reason
he has decided to douse the pitchers’ mound with gasoline, and then start playing with matches.
but
he’s only been lightly toasted so far, somehow he’s managed to avoid the bonfire.
Someone say gasoline?
No one doused that Comerica Park mound more than Jason Grilli. If he comes into the game, you might see fire.

Middle name
Michael Clete Thomas. His dad was a fan of Clete Boyer, the old Yankees third baseman.

I wish
I had something better to do on a Friday night, but I don’t.

80 pitches through 3 innings
this team is godawful

Still don't have a hit.

You should do yourself a favor and put the Mets game on
Maybe Delgado will get another 6 RBIs tonight…which is like a week’s worth of offense for us

Are you in the Detroit coverage area?

I don't think so?
I’m in New York. Does that count?
I'm in New York
and it isn’t blacked out for me.

Lets go Tulo!

OMG Double play

That AB is a microcosm of Tulo this season
we sign him to a long term deal, and he turns into a pumpkin….ugh

Doctor Who can’t start soon enough.

Welcome to the game, Speier.
You just gave up a double.

I want to
turn it off, but I can’t bring myself to x’ing out my MLB.TV player.

Could these Detroit announcers know less about the Rockies?

A few too many
innings to get that run.

No worries..
more than likely they will get it back and it will be another 7 innings or more before we get another. Rockies baseball continues to make me jaded.

This just in
the Monfort brothers have replaced the pitching staff with fastpitch softball pitching machines. Cheaper, you know

Good, only
three more outs until this ends.

Eddie Bonine
shutdown the Rockies. What’s Verlander going to do?

Done.
Life, with its many non-sports-related pleasures, resumes.
On the plus side, only 82 more games left
of this miserable season.

The Willy and Pods experiment.....
at the top of the order was a bust, as expected. 1 for 8 and no runs scored.
Could this manager, or this team, be any more uninspired than they’ve been this season?
