Game #42: Jason Marquis vs. Armando Galarraga

Colorado Rockies at Detroit Tigers, May 23, 2009 5:05 PM MDT




The Rockies will try to even up the series against the Tigers tonight at Comerica Park in Detroit (first pitch is at 5:05 PM MT). Jason Marquis was absolutely brilliant his last time out in Atlanta, giving up only one run while hurling a complete game. Hopefully, he can churn out a repeat performance and shut down a dangerous Detroit offense.

Oh, and let's hope for no (or at least, less) baserunning blunders. The Rox should be able to get some guys on base so that can at least come into play, as Tigers starter Armando Galarraga has allowed 43 hits - and 7 home runs - in 41 innings pitched.

Funny

how we can’t get a third baseman to consistently produce, but neither thirdbaseman is getting consistent at bats right now. That is one position we need a little bit more production out of.

Good point.

This is the biggest example of why I think Hurdle should be fired. If the players were producing, he would not have to tinker, adjust, play make poor decisions with the line ups.

I don't

know how he would make individual players produce. I don’t know what each player is working on and how they are going about fixing what is wrong. I, however, cannot blame Hurdle for the individual problems of the players. I can only hope his is playing matchups and giving opportunities for each player to take the positoin by producing day in and day out. The one who can do this will be starting regularly while the other is benched. This is the reason Barmes has been starting at second lately, he cannot be benched right now with his preformance and the performance of the other possible second basemen, although Q hasn’t had many chances.

okay but seriously

Atkins as a DH? can’t think of anyone with a hotter bat? anyone?! Considering how close it was yesterday, I’d rather have murton or something as DH

if you're reading this, it means my undying support for your team will result in its failure.

It’s going to be nothing but another case of Hurdle looking mighty stupid.

Hell

We might as well have Marquis bat for himself.

by Tom (RFTN) on May 23, 2009 5:01 PM MDT up reply actions  

In fact

I’m actually hoping Hurdle pulls a Joe Maddon and has both Atkins and Stewart at third on the lineup card.

by Tom (RFTN) on May 23, 2009 5:02 PM MDT up reply actions  

I would have rather had Murton DHing also, assuming he's decided to give Spilly a day off

Atkins has got on base more the last couple of days, but he’s still not getting hits, and neither is Stewie, putting them both in the lineup seems odd, though I hope I’m proved wrong

by djmbluemoon on May 23, 2009 5:01 PM MDT up reply actions  

I would have anyone hit other than Atkins...

seriously, we get an opportunity to have a DH and we have our worst hitter in that spot? At least put him in the nine hole.

Well, since it's an AL game

Hurdle can’t pull his favoured trick of letting the pitcher hit, then pulling him. So he has to find new ingenuities.

I love Greg Reynolds and I may be slightly ashamed to admit it.

HAHAHA

He picked off the guy who broke it up! Revenge!

by Greg Stanwood on May 23, 2009 8:02 PM MDT up reply actions  

I was just about to comment on that

Also that Paul Phillips, the pick-offer, may find himself on his way up soon. (Please get better, Dreamy).

Good job by Phillips

so do we bring him up for getting the guy at first?

Not much of a history of it at the MLB level

But he’s doing okay agaonst AAA pitching, Really all we need is a decent defensive catcher,

Thus turning catcher

into a total black hole. It can keep 3B company. Maybe they’ll consume each other.

me too

but MLB experience might be preferred and Phillips has that

The standard move for when they need a catcher

is to bring up Bellorin.

You can’t give them too much credit for invention, after all.

by Silverblood on May 23, 2009 8:07 PM MDT up reply actions  

And then

the standard move for Bellorin would be to suffer an injury.

RBI double

maybe he can come up and play third for us. We know we can use a 3B who can hit a little bit
