Fielder's choice
On Yahoo they show ‘reached safely on a fielder’s choice’ for Yorvit, but no error. Is it possible to have a non hit that is a non error?
yes
as a fielder’s choice. most often the lead runner is out, but it’s still a fielder’s choice if he is safe. Either way, it counts against the hitter’s batting average

Yep
Mental errors don’t count as errors and a FC with no out recorded is considered a mental error.
(There’s a more technical explanation, too, but I’ll spare everyone.)
The 2009 Colorado Rockies: Expect the Unexpected
Here's the deal
Reached safely on a fielder’s choice means the defense went to another base first. Typically, this is the scoring in botched double plays, or when a really good slide comes in at 2B or something like that.
When scorekeeping, you can never assume the double play. So if they fail to get the runner at first on the back end of the 4-6-3 (or any other attempted “normal” DP) for just about any reason, you rule it a FC 4-6-3.
So for example, on that 4-6-3, EYJ is tearing up the line, and the runner from 1st was running on the play. Well, the hit-and-run was clearly botched if the DP is still an option.
So because Dexter Fowler was running on the play, the out at 2B is gonna be the hard one, and Dex’s slide beats the toss to the SS, who still makes the throw to 1B, but misses EYJ by half a step. No error was committed, you almost need to just credit the runners.

He could still turn things around...
Same with Reynolds. Having this many guys at AAA who could possibly emerge in the second half is a very good thing.
I hope you are right
I think the organization really needs one of those 2 to be a major league pitcher (even better if both..just odds against both)
"Suck it monkeys, the Rockies will win this year", Rox Girl 1-11-2009
I'd add Hynick to that list of possibilities at this point
One of those control RHP’s needs to develop into an above average pitcher that can eat up some innings, I think you’re right about that.
I...
I have more hope for Reynolds than for Hirsh. Hirsh appears to be inside his own head.

Hirsh all but tore his rotator cuff. I understand it was as close to a tear, with out tearing…as you can get.
"Suck it monkeys, the Rockies will win this year", Rox Girl 1-11-2009
Hirsh didn't throw hard
when he first came up to the bigs w/ the Astros.
What happened between being all-world in AA and AAA and the Majors has always been a big mystery to me. Someone with Hirch’s stuff since he made it to the big leagues couldn’t have been that successful in the minors. He was the Uball/Chacin of the Astros’ system: a “can’t miss” pitcher. But he did miss.
If he’s had an undisclosed injury, he’s had it a long time.
Of maybe he turned into an Ankiel-like head case, but with symptoms other than wildness. I’ve never been able to figure it out.
No records in the last 10 years should count.
It's a big Question Mark
And just so I don’t sound terribly pessimistic, I’ll leave it at that

Money acquired in the Larry Walker Trade
gave us the money to sign Fowler. I was watching an interview at the time.
The Walker trade freed up money to sign Fowler.
Otherwise the team would have let him go to college.

So I didn’t get to watch the game, just the virtual, how does Fowler look, does he look ready to be in the majors?

Nice thing is...
The rest of the lineup is making up for the middle which is lacking a little right now, that home-run breakdown by lineup position is kind of funny the top and bottom have homers the middle is missing

I still believe Atkins will be there.
It’s just guys would have a run like this in the middle of the season, and people might not notice.
Yeah
there will be lots of 3-4 game slumps in the season that no one will notice it’s just at the beginning when they are so noticable.

Helton I understand, he is old, but Atkins I don't understand

I'm actually the other way around.
Helton had a hot as hell spring, and its surprising he’s not tearing up right now. Atty had a couple of injuries that really messed with his playing time this spring.
Fair enough

and the walks
silly as it sounds, I’m far more encouraged by walks
hits come and go
a good batter’s eye is forever

I think he's trying to pull the ball too much
He’s hitting a lot of groundballs to the left side

That's the problem
I’ll have to get a system too. The latest I have is an XBox. The original…like, from the first day it came out and only had Halo and NFL Fever as games

Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field?

I remember they butchered the pronunciation of Pierre
when we called him up (as if it’s an obscure name). No such problems with that now that he’s on the LA bench

Matt Stairs
I see he pinch hit in the Phils game. I just assumed he would retire, but he’s in for another season. Good for him, 41 years old!
did he hit a fastball like 4km?
because that’s what stairs does.
Canadian.
