Good lineup today

Go Rockies!!!

How I hate GIDP, RISP, and each little grounder. I'd have cracked years ago if it weren't for my sense of humor! (With apologies to Annie, the musical)

Fogg

I have a soft spot in my heart for Josh. I hope we beat them, but not too badly.

by onholliday on Jul 27, 2008 11:29 AM MDT   0 recs

I just hope we beat them.

A sweep on the road sounds amazing.

U-ball

remembers to throw it around the IF after that catch. Good to see he’s been reminded of proper etiquette.

Uball

Enough with the tons of pitches and walking. Yes, even after one.

Oh, Chris.

You needed to get a hit there. Uball is up now.

Fogger

smartly lowers his walk totals by hitting Iannetta instead.

Iannetta

I think he should’ve been called out on the previous pitch, but nice walk.

by onholliday on Jul 27, 2008 11:45 AM MDT   0 recs

Really unusual for him

usually he’s Cook-esque in his GB rate. But if they’re outs, no biggie.

Top of the lineup coming up.

Come on guys.

Fogg

doesn’t want U-ball to feel left out, throws it by the catcher.

This is the Worst-Fielding Team I have Ever Seen

I have a love-hate relationship with the Cincinnati D – It makes me cringe, but it gives us runs.

by onholliday on Jul 27, 2008 12:05 PM MDT   0 recs

Seriously

it’s just sad to watch.

Yeah

Mark my words, if (when) I become the next Ted Turner, I will broadcast the Rockies nationally (at a loss) so we don’t have to keep refreshing mlb.tv to watch choppy baseball.

I've had too many.

I love cheap tacos as much as the next guy, but I think anymore and my innards may rebel. That being said, I’ll take all the Rox runs I can get.

Free Casey Weathers!!!!

by Silverblood on Jul 27, 2008 12:30 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

this lineup

is def perfectly assembled right now

this team is utter rubbish...

by TuLoRocks2008 on Jul 27, 2008 12:29 PM MDT   0 recs

Fogg is probably not very happy right now.

I don’t care. I just love that he’s doing this against us, rather than FOR us.

Free Casey Weathers!!!!

by Silverblood on Jul 27, 2008 12:29 PM MDT   0 recs

I feel bad for him, though. I’ve always been a big Fogg fan.

by onholliday on Jul 27, 2008 12:30 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

Oh I know

I will always thank the Dragonslayer for what he did last year, but present circumstances supersede past allegiances.

Fogg helps his old teammates to a win.

by The Lodo Magic Man on Jul 27, 2008 12:30 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

The key

is that Fogg is a Rockies hero, in our uniform or not.

with the bases empty don’t bother me much.

Okay, I'm out

I’d like to thank the Rockies for getting out to a 7-0 lead before I had to leave for church. I’m counting on you all to make sure I come home to a win.

I am so happy

that this lineup is finally doing what it was supposed to do this whole year – score runs. And a lot of them.

by Squeaky on Jul 27, 2008 12:43 PM MDT   0 recs

And they are making it look too easy...

And 40 in runs in 9 games now is not bad at all…....think Kip Wells and that number is even more impressive.

by roxintober on Jul 27, 2008 12:44 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

Ok so the "PLUS" signs are missing....

We have a positive 40 run differential in 9 plus games…

I love Iannetta's quick charge into the ball...

Right as he makes contact he just flexes everything.

And yes, it was an upper deck shot.

wow.

The Rockies have scored 72 runs since the break.

73...and allowed 32 so far....
