Game #155: Cook vs Davis

Arizona Diamondbacks @ Colorado Rockies




What's been up with Ian Stewart lately? His slump has him deservedly dropping in the order, all the way to eighth tonight vs the lefthander Davis. Knowing Ian, however, a southpaw might be just what the doctor ordered to help him break out. No Holliday tonight, Chris Iannetta gets to bat fifth, which the way he's been going of late might be too low.

Go Rockies!

Your official scorer sucks.

For tonight at least.

I’m really starting to hope we don’t trade Matt.

by Rox Girl on Sep 20, 2008 7:37 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

THAT

notion has been plaguing me for weeks, but I’ve not said anything here. If we trade Matty, where does the power come from? I don’t see it in what we’d have left.

Put me out of my misery. Please!

by rockhead on Sep 20, 2008 7:52 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

It would have to be in consistent smaller doses

a few twenty HR, solid OBP guys to make up for the loss of a big bat.
The problem with this approach is that there can’t be more than one non-pitcher drag on the lineup or it starts to break apart in practical application. It would be absolutely critical that we have an upgrade at second or center and solid, somewhat consistent power threats off the bench. I just can’t see it all happening with internal fills, particularly at second but also keeping frowing pains with Fowler in mind, so if we do trade Matt, we’ll need to address this shortfall via free agency if we don’t get ready made solutions back in exchange.

by Rox Girl on Sep 20, 2008 7:59 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

Well since all the talk seems to be

trade Matty for pitching (which I completely understand and reluctantly support), it seems unlikely to me that we’d get a power bat in the deal as well. Humidor or no humidor, a consistent power bat in the line-up at Coors seems like a must to me. If we look to FA for the solution, who’s available? Maybe I’m missing something, however. You know I’m not the best baseball mind on the Row.

Put me out of my misery. Please!

by rockhead on Sep 20, 2008 8:10 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

It's actually fairly decent.

If you figure that Teixeira and Manny get the big $$, there will be some pretty good next tier hitters like Dunn and Burrell that might have to settle for a bit less than they would in other years where they were at the top of the market.

I lost my happy

when we got swept in San Diego, and then lost 2 out of 3 games in Phx to LA, and then got swept in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

That’s when I lost my happy, and that’s when we blew this division.

Are you sure your happy's not just gold plated?

A lot of recent happy is made that way. Pretty lame production values if you ask me.

Rockies happy is gold plated?

Not only is it gold plated,

It packed up and headed to Mexico for the winter in, oh, early May or so.

/sigh

Put me out of my misery. Please!

it’s gold plated AND migrational?

a coconut?

Josh Byrnes: PLEEEEEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RE-SIGN ADAM DUNN!!

by DbacksSkins on Sep 20, 2008 8:22 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

Last I checked,

coconuts don’t migrate, not having feet or wings. As for Rockies Happy, I can only guess that given it’s extremely transitory nature, it must have some mode of mobility. What that might be, however, I’m not prepared to say.

Put me out of my misery. Please!

by rockhead on Sep 20, 2008 8:36 PM MDT to parent up   0 recs

Hmmm....

African coconuts, or European coconuts?

Second in Defensive Efficiency, with the Red Sox being first, somewhat uncoincidentally.

Oh, no doubt.

I’m not saying the Rox weren’t good defensively last year. I’m just saying that that whole “highest fielding % in history” thing was ____________.
