Remember how Hawpe was slumping before the All-Star break?
My theory is Carl Crawford was the slump buster.

Well, thank you Mr. Garrett Jones.
Now let’s smash the Padres bullpen and gain that game on the Giants.
Padres play 25 games in a row..
due to a makeup game. They lose their off day and play until August 11.

Isn't there a rule about maximum games played in a row?

Mentioned last night
that it is against the rules for a team to play more than 20 games in a row without the consent of the players union. So they had to accept it.

Stewart doesn't hit the ball as often as I'd like
But he damn sure hits it hard when he does
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Definitely. Maybe he'll have a monsterous second half?

The worst think about watching virtually every Rockies game is
you get soooooooooooo sick of the commercials. I think the one I really really hate right now is the guy in the LaMaz class using the wifi.
"I've had pretty good success with Stan Musial by throwing him my best pitch and backing up third." - Carl Erskine
Amen to that.
The beer commercial where the guy knocks all the shelves over in the store is driving me up the wall as well.
Could be worse...
…the TV-game commercials are a whole lot better than the ones for the radio game
((Coors Light, I’m looking at you!))
That sad psrt is, that's probably the best commercial Qwest has ever come up with...

Don't wanna jinx anything, but
if the Rox hold onto this one, they pick up a game on Dodgers, Giants & the 3rd place wildcard team (Brewers, who lost to the Reds). That’s what I call progress.
No records in the last 10 years should count.
Cabera should
have been doing that for the Rockies at some point in the future.

What was the article
that a pitching coach said the bullpen is Morales destiny? I can kind of see that now. If he sticks he will be quite the weapon in the seventh or eighth.
I really like the idea of Morales coming into face a lefty in the 6th or 7th
then having him pitch to the 8th with that stamina, it’s a great ability to have, to throw multiple innings in the pen

No doubt. Plus, he's got the endurance to be a long reliever if we need him to.
He could be a key to a good second half by our bullpen.

No.
First, you have to go at least 5 innings. Second, your team has to be ahead when you leave and stay ahead. If the other team ties it after a starter leaves, he won’t get the win, even if his team eventually wins.
You're welcome.
By the by, the rules are slightly different if a reliever is getting the win. They obviously don’t have to go 5 innings.
Also, a starter can get a loss no matter how long he’s in the game, even if it’s just an inning.
Can we make this game

Lol at Goodman and Huson.
One of Stewarts favorite lines is “sick” Like “That’s sick.”
Huson: That’s a good thing right?
It's just funny because I had an almost identical exchange with one of my coworkers.
I called something “sick” and she was legitimately insulted.
too funny...

Screeching like he's being stabbed.
Yelling about throwing strikes and such, in the most obnoxious way possible.

I was wondering who the heck that guy was.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
He was here last night too, lol.

Too bad the Astros keep winning though
I was hoping they would fade and be willing to part with Hawkins. Now they will fade too late for that to happen.

I know that teams way overpay for closers these days
but I hope there is someway to keep Street in a Rox uni after this year. He has been the most reliable reliever in franchise history so far.
he isn't due for free agency until after next year

I'm a lot more relaxed with him in the 9th than I ever was with Fuentes.

Yeah Fuentes was good
but the nervousness I had when he came in was out of control. Its nice when you have a closer that you expect a 1-2-3 inning from.
MLB network showed that the Pirated have a crazy good record against SF
the last few seasons. Let’s hope that continues tomorrow!
