Game #119: Cook vs Maddux
San Diego Padres at Colorado Rockies, Aug 9, 2008 6:05 PM MDT
Aaron's got to bounce back from his own part in the Nationals disaster that the Rockies went through early in the week. Taking down the Ol' Perfesser would be a good start.
Go Rockies!

I think I am the only one here...
well in that case, here are the lineups
Taveras CF
Barmes 2B
Holliday LF
Hawpe RF
Atkins 1B
Tulo SS
Ianneta C
Cookie P
Remembering Dustin Mohr's glory years!
oops, somehow
I forgot Stewie at 3B batting between Atkins and Tulo
Remembering Dustin Mohr's glory years!
Cookie's on the ground in the first
Hopefully this means he has his sinker going tonight.
though I am sure it is nothing
to do with Yorvit going 0-4 with 2ks last night. Hurdle must not have been paying attention when writing the lineup today, or something. It was not intentional
Remembering Dustin Mohr's glory years!
He had 7 in AAA and 11 last year
and Maddux is the second worst (to teammate Young) at holding runners, so not that surprising.
And that's why he shouldn't be starting.
Get Yorvit back in the lineup, we don’t need Chris clogging up the bases.
Yeah
Yorvit could have hit a bases-empty grand slam if he were starting
Remembering Dustin Mohr's glory years!
Oh here's the right gameday thread...
I thought no one was on the Row at first haha. Gotta love that CDI!

Anyone remember when Cook was good?
Neither do I.

will the real Aaron Cook please stand up? I think that he has been abducted by aliens.

Prior
to the Nationals loss for Cook, Goodman was going on and on about Cook winning 20 games. By the way the Nats haven’t scored since leaving.

I'm really NOT enjoying this..
we can beat Jake Peavy, but we roll over and die against Maddux? Granted Cook gave up a lot of runs, but we have had no offense other than the CDI homer and a couple hits. One from DeLaRosa.

DeLaRosa apparently is the bright spot of today...
got a hit on the offense and pitched a scoreless inning.

Without
checking I think Cook has allowed 16 runs in his last 19 innings and a ton of hits.

That was not really Chris....
he too was abducted by aliens. I wish FSN would quit having these Saturday broadcasts with a viewing party at a bar because it seems like we always do badly. I hate kouzmanoff by the way among others.

I think
Matt can hit a seven-run homer, even though a)there’s no one on and b)you can’t score seven runs on a single play.

Bud coming to bring in Trevor Hoffman. We should be given a 2-4 run handicap for as much time as the Pads have stalled in between pitchers.

Four more games...
until I officially allow my interest to wane for the rest of this season. Not that anyone here cares, of course, but I’m just going on record for myself. In all honesty, it will be a relief to tune out, say, 50% until next April. Plenty of other things going on. But man, do I have high hopes for ‘09.
Sorry for the duplicate Game Threads
I had scheduled this one to be published but for some reason it wasn’t showing up in my edit queue so I made the other one just in case. I needn’t have worried, and it turns out that we would have been better off if both threads, and the game they accompanied had disappeared to some alternate reality rather than actual reality.
