Livan.....

     I’m rooting for you. The whole season it would seem to rest upon you. I know you’re the kind of guy that won’t be intimidated by the pressure and who will dig deep and find another month of quality pitches in the waning years of your career. Invent them as you go if you have to. Just win tonight and solidify the bottom of our rotation….. Amen.

Put it this way,

if Troy was covering on the play, it would have flowed with his momentum towards first, and Tulo wouldn’t have had to dive back. That’s nobody’s fault, it’s just what happened and now it’s moot.

i can't believe it either. And this is with SF's notorious 2-3mph speed boost

I don’t know how SF keeps missing those straight 81 mph whatever-the-f-it-is pitches. I guess we’re lucky they threw out the AAAA team for tonight’s game.

Stew consistently shows

one minor, correctable flaw, he has poor pitch recognition on the inner half. I think this is just something that will come with experience and dilligent cage work in the off-season. Too often he takes inside fastballs from right handers that end up riding back over the middle of the plate. Part of this, I believe, comes from some infamiliarities in his stance adjustment. He’s only started hitting from a straight on (not open) stance this year, so he hasn’t had as much experience with these fastballs from this viewpoint.

The good thing is that it isn’t a bat speed issue, where he can’t handle inside pitches, because he’s proven the opposite against lefties. He just needs to pick up the inside fastball a little better out of the hand.

I know there’s worry about Stew falling off a bit next year, and some things will have to dip, like BABIP. However, I think a corresponding drop in K rate will help counterbalance the BABIP dip. You can categorize Stew’s K’s in to three areas: A true swing and miss strike out, a caught looking on the inner half, and most recently, rookie strikezone punchouts. The first one is unavoidable. The second will be tempered by continual improvement in pitch recognition, and the thrid seems to dissipate as Stewart gains notoriety around the league (leveling his reputation against that of the pitchers). I would expect the K rate to settle in around 22-25% next season, still high, but not extreme, and still loaded with walks.

And this looks out of game flow

because I started typing it after Ian’s strike two…

by David OhNo on Aug 27, 2008 8:45 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Wasn't this an issue with Andres Gallaraga?

His stance was too open, he couldn’t recognize enough inside pitches, once he closed it up a little he became a hitting monster?

I want one of these unis. I don't care what you say, it looks awesome.

by The Lodo Magic Man on Aug 27, 2008 8:48 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I think the reverse, yes

I think Ian’s struggling with inside pitches because he has closed it, but I think it’s primarily because he’s still getting acclimated with it. I think a lot of times with open stances you see trouble with outside pitches, sometimes open hitters don’t get back to the plate quick enough on those. Similar theory though.

by David OhNo on Aug 27, 2008 8:51 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

now that I think of it..

I think you’re right. I think Gallaraga opened his stance more.

I know pitching has been the hot button

but I will make the case this off-season that a bonafide leadoff hitter should be top priority. We have a poorly designed lineup that leaks in too many valuable areas. The Rockies squander more with an ineffective lineup/personnel than they do with their pitchers, only because the offense should be capable of more than it produces.

Fowler and...

Ryan Spillborghs. Not the prototypical, but doesn’t he see a lot of pitches and make enough contact?

He'd be a fine leadoff hitter

his career .375 OBP (.420 this year) would be very welcome at the top of this lineup

by Ghoulowitzki on Aug 27, 2008 8:57 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'm a big Fowler fan

having watched him almost every othe rweek here in Tulsa, but I don’t like the idea of putting that kind of pressure on him just yet. Fowler needs to be the ‘09 everyday centerfielder, but I don’t want him to be the everyday leadoff hitter until he’s acclimated with the league.

Spilborghs could work, but I think even he runs into contact troubles when forced to play every day.

The Rockies need to go outside and they should target second base. Not so surprisingly, that makes Brian Roberts the obvious candidate. My offer: Barmes, A. Rodriguez, a pick from another B list starter (Lindsay, Rogers, Graham, Reynolds, etc.) Might throw in one of Baker or Smith too.

True but,

research has shown that power pitching wins in the playoffs. Perhaps Livan’s job is to get our power pitcher, jimenez, to the playoffs, and then fade into the background.

I'm speaking optimistically

In reality, I’d like to see the Rockies audtion Brandon Hynick while he’s red hot for that back end job. He’s no ’07 Morales, but he could be ’07 late year Redman, and that was better than the alternative.

Big advantage for Livan tonight

is thus far, the home plate ump has not forced him into the strike zone. Livan’s throwing that arm side tailer just to the brink of the plate but not touching it, and is still getting calls.

I really think that Brad is

an extremely usefull player. I know he is kind of streaky, but even though he K’s alot he also walks alot as well. If we decide to move Atkins, I definitely wouldn’t mind trying him at 1st with Spillborghs in Right.

I'm not saying completely left out,

but I feel Todd must prove he’s completely healthy before regaining a full time starting role at first base. I love his defense there and he still has a great eye, I’m just worried about his brittleness at this point.

by jimmyski on Aug 27, 2008 9:10 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

You and I both know

that Helton will be resuming duty BEFORE he is completely healthy. As soon as doctors clear him, he will make a start or two down at AAA then be back in the line up, and Stewie will ride pine. Hurdle and the FO have huge man-crushes on Helton

Remembering Dustin Mohr's glory years!

by MohrPlease on Aug 27, 2008 9:17 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

And I understand why to an extent

There has never been another player that has meant so much to this organization and been through as much as Helton has. However, there will soon be a time that what’s best for Todd and what’s best for the organization won’t be the same thing. It’s unfortunate but in reality, “That’s life”, as us common folk would refer to it.

by jimmyski on Aug 27, 2008 9:22 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yep, and unfortunately what is best for Todd is to collect the 60 million that the team still owes him

If the FO was smart (which they aren’t) they’d negotiate some sort of buyout or renegotiated contract, which we all know isn’t ever going to happen. Our best bet is Todd having some sort of epiphany about life being more important than baseball or money and retiring.

Because he's given up 3 hits in 6 innings

And because he can hit some, and has only thrown 74 pitches.

He’ll come out at first sign of trouble, but really, San Fran hasn’t done much. The one hard hit ball, Hawpe should have caught.

Crap 1-1....

Hurdle had to push him another inning, pitch count or not Livan is still Livan not Lincecum.

Hurdle does the smart thing, though.

Earlier in the season, he would have left Livan in, just to see what happens.

I don't think you can put this on Hurdle

After all, Livan had completely handled Molina and that other dude both times tonight. Don’t be so results-oriented. The decision was fine, but he should have pulled him after the first dinger.

Yeah, but Livan vs. Lincecum

looked to exactly nobody like the best matchup for making it happen.

He should have been out after last inning...

or at the very least IMMEDIATELY after the first homer.
