Sunday Rockpile: NL West updates and not much else, but discuss World Series Game #4 here

Jon Heyman had a couple of interesting NL West notes in his column the other day. First, the news that Manny Ramirez will exercise his player option and return to Los Angeles isn't surprising, and while it does tie a significant portion of the Dodgers payroll to him, I think he's proven that he really is the type of star player that can draw a lot of that expenditure back with a contribution at the ticket gate and concession/souvenir stands that wouldn't come if he wasn't on the team. Where it could possibly help other NL West teams is that it also ties a significant chunk of prime run producing plate appearances and innings in the outfield to an aging player that could see a significant drop in his offensive production in 2010. How much Ramirez is going to drop off going forward is difficult to say, but as opposition fans, we can hope that the slower bat and .255/.379/.459 line he put up in the second half of 2009 is a sign of things to come.
The next note about the Diamondbacks exercising Brandon Webb's extension could be more significant, as it adds not only the $8.5 million that Webb will make to Arizona's 2010 payroll commitment, but also whatever money they are going to have to pay another starter as an insurance policy in case Webb's shoulder isn't up to the task. At least, that sort of hedge is how it should ideally work, but with two other rotation spots up in the air already, and apparently not enough money to spend to fill both of them, it looks like there won't be any hedge over the Kevin Mulvey/Billy Buckner/Bryan Augenstein group that combined for an ERA over 7.00 in 117 innings in 2009. According to Arizona's MLB.com beat writer, Steve Gilbert, one of these pitchers will likely be called on to fill one of those two open rotation slots as is.
This is where the starting pitching depth that Dan O'Dowd has built into the Rockies system has really created some separation between the two clubs that will hopefully extend for a few seasons. Is Dan Haren still worth the number of players the Diamondbacks gave up for him? Keep in mind that the Rockies had a similar opportunity to trade for him but balked when the bidding got so high, leaving the path clear for the Diamondbacks.
The San Francisco Giants now have their second baseman for the next two seasons in Freddy Sanchez at $6 million per year. Sanchez gives them a more consistent bat than they've had since Ray Durham left, but this upgrade also leaves them with a player that hasn't even been as valuable as Clint Barmes over the last two seasons combined. Of course, I'm cherry picking my start point there, Sanchez moves well ahead of Barmes once you include 2007 and earlier. What we're of course interested in is which player will be better going forward, and it's probably a more difficult call than a lot of Rockies fans would suspect. As frustrating as Barmes' ten pop-ups and then a home run game is to watch at the plate, his defense has made up a considerable amount of value. Sanchez' defense is acceptable at second, but does dip into negative values in some years, and he's not getting any more nimble with age.
I don't know. Sanchez had a relatively high profile as the best player on a bad team, but take him out of that small pond and he looks remarkably pedestrian when compared to other second basemen around the league

I'm wondering about that too. Is there a World Series thread today?
I would have figures Russ would have had it ready several hours ago.

I was at a sports bar today
watching the Broncos get mauled by the Ravens. welp, I got into a heated discussion with an Orioles fan over which league is better and the DH and the home run replay call in last nights game. And let me tell you, this guy was loud and obnoxious and as arrogant as a typical Yankee fan(Russ excluded)

That the no National League team was any better than AAA club!!!! I said, so you’re saying the Royals would be beat the Phillies?? And he backpedaled and said well, I didn’t say every team could beat them and boy did we get into. He was such a jerk!!

Like there’s something mystical in the American League that makes teams better. I think the better argument is that, on balance, the American League is better, but saying that all National League teams are bad is asinine

And then he went on and on
about how interleague play can prove this. I said well I’d like to see the stats on how many games are won in the AL parks using the DH, and how many in the NL parks. I said well coincidentally the Rockies had the best record against AL teams in interleague play. And he said, “oh, well, just because the Rox went won 20 something games in 07 doesn’t mean anything”. I said well actually the did make the playoffs again this year. All he said was well good for them….
He was literally yelling at me!

I agree that the Yankees' payroll isn't a big problem
But saying that the NL is lazy is sort of perplexing. I mean they have the defending Series champion.
by controlled_slide on Nov 1, 2009 7:29 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
The Yankees payroll is a problem
This is a tough argument for me because big salaries tend to draw the best athletes. No doubt that baseball attracts the best athletes who can dream of huge pay checks. I also believe it destroys parity. The Yankees have 40 pennants, that’s sick, whereas some teams pray to make the postseason once a decade.
by arpagamos on Nov 1, 2009 7:35 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
40 championships sounds out-of-whack...
…and their abnormally high payroll seems to be related; but I don’t think it is (at least very much).
First off, a ton of those championships are very old, and pre-date free-agency. Most of that (IMHO) is other owners agreeing to sell them the players they needed because they’d rather have the cash than a competitive team. The players weren’t getting big saleries by going to the Yankees as much as the owners were getting cash payments in trade! Unlike the scenario today where lots of owners might want a competitive team but can’t afford to compete for the players as agreesively as the Yankees can.
Ignorance of the American League is a sign of good moral character.
Look out Dodgers...Purple objects in mirror are closer than they appear.

Maybe if the Yankees weren't playing in their new wiffle ball park, they wouldn't have these inflated offensive numbers.
Some of those stats would greatly disappear if they had some of the original ballpark dimensions of Yankee Stadium had back during the 1940’s and 1950’s (over 465’ to LC and more like 400’ to RC).

At least Matt had more of a realistic chance of touching the corner of the plate.
The same couldn’t be said for Ryan Howard’s airborne maneuver.

Howard didn't touch home plate. Posada didn't tag Howard. No replay to overturn it. Thus he must be safe.

If Posada would have ran into the dugout to tag out Haward
he would have been out right?

But what if the ump saw he never touched the plate
He was never tagged either
I remember in the 03 ALDS between Boston and Oakland when Eric Byrnes never touched the plate but the ball got away. Jason Varitek tagged Byrnes after the fact and he was called out

When you see the postgame replays, you will see...
Howard going airborne toward Posada, Howard’s hand is several inches over the plate. As he continues going airborne, Howard’s right knee is also over home plate, followed by the right foot flying over home plate. None of Howard’s body touching home plate, even in FOX’s slo-mo camera shot behind home plate.

Last night, they did show a replay from that camera.
But it was such a quick gray blur in the bottom of the left of the screen, you barely see the deflection. (I’m kind of surprised no lens broke, considering all of the highlights over the years where camera take direct shots to the camera lens behind home plate and in the dugouts. Probably since the ball was going considerably slower to the camera, like the one in right field.)

I like Dinger, but I'm kinda lean towards the Philly Phanatic.

At Game 3 of the NLDS, an obnoxious Phillies fan behind me was mocking Dinger...
I turned to my seat mate, and said, “You know, he’s right about Dinger sucking, but at least Dinger doesn’t have a vagina for a nose like the Phanatic.”
That quieted him for a minute.

A World Series classic
I'm still hoping to wake up from that nightmare I had about the 9th inning of Game 4.

We're going 22 innings.
We’ll be here after the show that you have to attend.
Ignorance of the American League is a sign of good moral character.

Feliz in the 13th is a good choice.
I noticed though the SIM had the Phillies blowing the lead late in regulation to force extra innings. Thankfully not the case here.

With Game 6 and 7 in the Bronx, it's going to be tough.
The Phillies will need one of those miracles pulled by the Red Sox in the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees.

But the Royals got some help from Don Denkinger in Game 6.
Unless the umps help the Phillies in Games 5, 6, and 7, it’s hard to see it happen. Maybe Cliff Lee will win Monday night to force the series back to the Bronx.

Hopefully the show worked out well for you.
It ended up being a mess for the Phillies after you left.
by CM85 on Nov 1, 2009 10:50 PM MST up reply actions 0 recs
SDcat09, the quick painful synopsis of the top of the 9th, while you were away...
Brad Lidge gets the first two outs with no problems.
Johnny Damon then singles.
Phillies administer a defensive shift in the infield with Mark Teixeira at bat.
Damon promptly steals second with the third baseman Feliz covering second, and then immediately continues, stealing third since pitcher Lidge nor catcher Ruiz did not cover third base.
Teixeira is plunked (Lidge not ejected), sent to first.
Alex Rodriguez singles to LF scoring Damon, runners advance with the throw to the plate.
Jorge Posada hits a two-run single to left, scoring both Teixeira and A-Rod. Posada out at second to end the inning.
Simplified Yankee beat down on Lidge with two out in the 9th. I’ve seen that verse many times this postseason.
Hopefully that concert worked out for you.

I don't think I've ever seen more 2 out 9th inning melt downs than I have this postseason
And all of them, except for Red Sox/Angels have gone the wrong way for me.
If the Yankees wrap this up I’m gonna want to go into hibernation until opening day :(

Awww, thank you for
for my very own update. I went to the concert such as it was , they played one set for 45 minutes! That was it…couldn’t even believe it…He was good though. and as it turned out, it was kind of heavy screeching stuff…
