San Diego Padres
@ Colorado Rockies

Saturday, Aug 9, 2008, 6:05 PM MDT
Coors Field

Greg Maddux vs Aaron Cook

Partly cloudy with a 30-percent chance of rain. Winds blowing in from right field at 10-15 m.p.h. Game Time temperature: Near 80.

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!

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

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.

Get Yorvit back in the lineup, we don’t need Chris clogging up the bases.

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.

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.

by dogs on Aug 9, 2008 9:10 PM MDT reply actions  

And,

if ‘09 doesn’t go well, at least I’ll be going into it with something like an ‘05 mindset, rather than an ‘08 mindset. Ahh, how sweet low expectations can be.

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.
