Spring Training Game #7: Greg Smith vs. Yovani Gallardo
With this being my first game thread, I'm hoping that I can bring some of my infamous good luck to the table in this one, as the 0-6 Rockies face the 2-3 Brewers at Maryvale Baseball Park in Phoenix.
Your starting pitchers:
vs.
Alan Embree, Greg Reynolds, Ryan Mattheus are among others that scheduled to pitch for the Rox. Hopefully, Smith and Reynolds are sparked by the competition for the fifth starter and both have good performances this afternoon.
For the Brew Crew, Trevor Hoffman (insert tiebreaker game reference here), Carlos Villanueva, Mitch Stetter, Omar Aguilar, and Chase Wright are slated to take the mound, just in case anybody cares.
Here is the Gameday link.
Colorado's Lineup:
Podsednik RF
Young 2B
Spilborghs CF
Koshansky 1B
S. Smith LF
Colonel 3B
Quintanilla SS
Phillips C
G. Smith P
GO ROCKIES!

I love the tie breaker game
but how about an Opening Day 2005 reference. He seems to have big game problems, and especially in Colorado.

Not too terribly excited, no.
I won’t be around much for night games in Denver, and not at all for night games on the West Coast. I hope they play a lot of afternooners on the East Coast, but this is a problem for obvious reasons.

I'm getting home either in late June or early July.
My parents might be out here to do some travelling, which would be great. But in any case, probably not until almost the All-Star break. I’ve got a very short summer, I’m heading back to NY for my senior year at the end of August.

Because all of them mean ESPN-fail.

Are the Rockies the only team
that is “working on things in spring training” and making pitchers throw certain pitches and batters lay off certain pitches? I think most teams do some variation of that in the Spring. Because it seems to me that the info leaked to the Post this morning was a bit of an attempt at PR spin.

Well, it might have been
seeing as the natives are already going apeshit over six straight ST losses. Maybe they were trying to purposefully reassure everyone that, yeah, we’re not actually going to BE like this.

It’s a feed from the Yes network and the announcers just compared him to Joe Girardi. Which means he will leave the Rockies to win 3 world series rings elsewhere. Actually they said he is a smart catcher and calls a good game, has some power.
In the last half inning he called 2 strikeouts.

At 11.25
That actually puts him right in the running with the other 5th starter candidates. From “Inside the Rockies”:
1. Franklin Morales, left-hander | 0-1, 8.00 in two games.
2. Greg Smith, left-hander | 0-1, 13.50 in one game
3. Jason Hirsh, right-hander | 0-1, 13.50, two games
4. Greg Reynolds, right-hander | 0-0, 4.50, one game
5. Josh Fogg, right-hander 0-0, 36.00, one game.
Right now, Matt Belisle has the inside track on the 5th slot, because he hasn’t pitched, yet.

For some reason
I really like how Brits pluralise football teams’ names. So you’ll read about Liverpool are… or Newcastle were… etc. I also especially like it when they’re writing about American football, since they call it “matches,” “sides,” etc. Which is how you end up with “Pittsburgh are six-time world champions after a thrilling match against…”
