Lineup
Man, these last few games I look at our lineup and I think, surely there must be better options. But then I realize, with injuries, not so much. At least Iannetta is in there today. Too bad Spilly got hurt yesterday and Baker is still (I assume) day-to-day.

Actually
I don’t mind this lineup in this injury purgatory we’re living in nowadays, but I don’t know if I can bring myself to watch a game in which my team sends Glendon “What’s the” Rusch to the mound against Ben “I’m going to strike out 20 Rockies tonight” Sheets.

I dont know
I dont think the lineup is terribly bad, I have seen worse. Anything with Choo, and Mohr was definitely worse. Besides, Venison could do something good. Also, at least we have Atkins, Hawpe, and Holliday (even if Hawpe is a poor mans Adam Dunn)

at least
there’s only 5 automatic outs in the lineup tonight, as opposed to the 6 last night

How many times
will we see Sheets use that curve to get the guys to K?

Wow.
Sheets, Sabathia, Gallardo (if that’s spelled right).
Get those three back to back and you are talking a lot of sweeps.

Manny parra is actually their number 3, and is 8-2
Gallardo is out for the year

Any predictions fot how many runs Rusch will give up tonight?
by rockiesrock on Jul 9, 2008 6:15 PM MDT 0 recs
I'll be optimistic
and go with three.

I'm glad to know
that Hurdle isn’t the only manager stupid enough to bat a .220 hitter in the leadoff spot

Pretty good job by Rusch in the first
Doubt he can keep it up though

Yeah
that’s what I’m looking at, too. If we’re going to strike out, at least we’re managing to do it on more than 3 pitches.

Here's the better question.
Will there be more total runs or total K’s in this game?
by roxintober on Jul 9, 2008 6:36 PM MDT 0 recs
well
Sheets will probably strike out 15-20, and Rusch/our crack bullpen will probably give up 15-20, so i say it’s a toss up

yeah, so
have you guys/gals heard that Barmes name has come up in trade rumors with both the Pads and the Dodgers? I’d be inclined to trade him if we can get a decent return…after all he was a pumpkin for a long time.

I'm not surprised by his name in rumors.
But I would be surprised to see him get traded. He’s a cheap guy, won’t be a big resign, and he can play anywhere.
As for the return, I don’t see it being too high. The upside would probably be to keep him, as he’s a sure .275 hitter who can play anywhere. You may lose that in a trade.

At this point I'm open to whatever improves the team for next year
and if throwing Barmes in with Atkins or Holliday gets us a legit starter, then we should go for it. Because my read of the tea leaves is that our ‘09 rotation strategy is going to be the same as this year’s: “hope the young guys figure it out.” And that has worked out really well.

And this, describing a potential CC to LA trade...
Rosenthal describes the Dodgers as a “near-impossible trading partner.”
The Dodgers could’ve gotten CC Sabathia, Casey Blake, and Jamey Carroll without giving up Matt Kemp. Owner Frank McCourt may have killed the deal, though he denies it. Rosenthal describes the Dodgers as a “near-impossible trading partner.”

That was a great article
Rosenthal rips the Dodgers, deservingly. The NL West is there for the taking.

Wow glendon...
Pitching rather well. Leadoff double, gets through it with no damage. Granted some of the worst hitters he faced in Kendall and Sheets, but still.

Glendon
has only thrown 71 pitches, which I will say is surprisingly low
