Game #85: Jimenez vs Wolf

San Diego Padres @ Colorado Rockies


Despite being inconsistent -he had another rough outing against Detroit after being sensational vs. the Mets in his last two start- Jimenez has done a pretty decent job of avoiding disasters this season. Only three of his starts have resulted in him allowing more than four runs, compared to ten that have seen him give up four or less. Part of this early in the season was due to Hurdle handling him with kid gloves and pulling him at the first sign of trouble, but lately it's been more a result of him running into too many deep counts every other game.

I don't know why it seems that the Rockies run support for pitchers sometimes seems so disproportionately skewed according to their abilities at the plate, after all Aaron Cook, no matter how good of a hitter he is, isn't two runs per game better than Jimenez, yet a look at the Run Support for our starters shows that's exactly what he's getting in his starts:

  1. De La Rosa 5.42
  2. Cook 5.02
  3. Reynolds 4.07
  4. Francis 3.46
  5. Jimenez 2.97

Well, okay, maybe the pitcher's hitting isn't it, since JDLR still has .000 in his batting average column for this year. At any rate, it would be nice if the Rockies came up with a few runs off of Wolf tonight for a little more support than Jimenez is used to getting.

Go Rockies!

Sitting here

in the Rosenthal Estate, drinking beer and celebrating our country’s independence day 48 hours early (since I have to work the actual holiday).

Made some lovely chicken salad this afternoon. Let’s see if the Rockies can pull this one out and give me a reason to drink that doesn’t involve losing.

Evidently

the key to keeping wins going is to shutout the opponent.

Broken-bat single for E-Gon.

So many broken bats. Can’t wait to see what that scanner can do.

Still great

Say what you will about his decreased range – everything that he can reach he still snares (both in terms of batted balls and picking throws coming to first base).

They did acknowledge

that it was a lingering issue, so it’s not like they just barely figured this out (how long it’s been lingering and how long they’ve known, who knows). From the article Russ posted, it sounds like something they’re treating with just additional rest, and figured prior to the All-Star break would be a good time to do it. Unless there’s more they’re just not saying.

by Squeaky on Jul 2, 2008 7:49 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

He's not

worth the millions of dollars that his salary will inevitably be. If we give him 40 million over 5 years (sounds right), are we really going to get $35 million more in production over Ian Stewart in those 5 years?

by rosenthal on Jul 2, 2008 7:50 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'm glad

you know that for certain after Stewart’s 80 (or whatever) mlb at-bats. The Rockies could use a scout like you.

by Ghoulowitzki on Jul 2, 2008 7:55 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

And yes,

8 million/year would be a bargain for his production. I’d expect him to command $12 mil/year and he’d still be worth it.

by Ghoulowitzki on Jul 2, 2008 7:56 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Use your

head.

We have a payroll of $70 million or so, right? Does it make sense to spend 1/10 of it on any one player when we already have millions locked up to other players? We cannot afford it.

Pretty freaking simple.

And considering Atkins’ has gotten worse over the last few years, I’d go ahead and guess that in 3 years that $8 million contract will be a colossal waste.

Must have been a foul. How does that happen? I really hope he’ll be okay.

It’s not very often you see a pinch hitter take over in the middle of an at bat.

The best thing

that happened to this team recently was the Monday Meltdown. Otherwise, I (and many others, I’m sure) would be talking myself into thinking that we’re good again. Now, I just see two gawdawful teams, one a little worse than the other. Regardless, its fun to see HRs and crooked numbers again.

Sports

polygamy?

Although the Rays are awful fun to watch. And that Evan Longoria sure reminds me of a certain SS we have.

This is the time where I point out that we should have drafted Longoria, but didn’t because ‘we already had a 3B/SS’ and I wind up drinking. Heavily.

by rosenthal on Jul 2, 2008 8:21 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Different leagues

Plenty of people have an AL team and an NL team (though one probably takes precedence). The Rays are a perfect option for an AL team (if one doesn’t already have one), especially since they are in the same division as the Yankees and Red Sox.

Quick question about the top of the inning

GameCast on ESPN says that we recorded 4 outs that inning: Headley popping out to short, Greene lining out to left, Carlin grounding out to first, and Clark Grounded out to first. Can anyone tell me why?

by denver_sc on Jul 2, 2008 8:28 PM MDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Because Greene singled

Gamecast probably got confused. I think they might have had some uncertainty about whether the ball was caught.

D'Backs are now below .500.

It’s ridiculous that we’re still kind of in it, at least in our pathetic division. Maybe our guys will actually start playing well, and us steadfast fans will be repaid with meaningful late-season games. I’m just saying… maybe.

Grace at it again

Mark Grace made another “offhand comment” about a pitcher cheating tonight. This time it was Solomon Torres and yes, he brought up Corpas’ name.

I guess he thinks it’s cute (just like he did when he made the remarks about Corpas), but I’ll bet Torres wouldn’t find it all that funny.

Grace

is still my favorite color guy in baseball. It’s an absolute gas listening to him.

Pun intended.
