one thing i do like about the d-backs organization
they move their prospects through the system when they are good enough to do so. i feel like like we’re too “by the book” sometime. case in point: daniel schlereth up already after less than 2 years in the minors. christian friedrich is in high A ball.
Popcorn chicken...with club sauce...
Relievers have different timetables.
Weathers would have long since been up if it hadn’t been for his surgery and the pain that preceded it. Plus, the D-backs can afford to have a reliever with an 8.76 ERA earning his stripes, do you really want that for the Rockies right now?
In his defense..
The Rockies really took their time with Tulo, Dex, and Jeff Francis.

Purple Row Cares
Dex maybe, but certainly not the other two...
Both Tulo and Francis had pretty quick rises that only players like Lincecum were able to beat.
I was being faceitious, Chacin could also be added to that list.

Purple Row Cares
i know weathers would be up
and i know relievers move more quickly than starters. but what’s the point of drafting so many college players if you don’t want them to move quickly? friedrich had nothing to prove in high A past three starts. everyone seems to get here when they are 24 or 25. i don’t see the downside to moving them faster.
Popcorn chicken...with club sauce...
there may not be room for any of these guys right now
but i don’t like wasting arms at low levels when there is nothing left to prove. that’s my main qualm
Popcorn chicken...with club sauce...
Alright, you bring up the second major point. You know a player's peak is usually at aroung 27 years old, right?
If you bring up players at 24 or 25, they’re still very affordable at 27. If you bring them up at 22, they’re free agents at 28. What free agent pitcher stays in Colorado at 28? We’d get two or three bottom of the rotation seasons from Friedrich and two decent seasons by calling him up at 22. This way we get four or five seasons right around his peak.
i'm more concerned
with wasting his arm now at levels where he is already proven, then how we are going to afford him at 28. i’d rather find out what i have early so if he does flash potential early on we can lock him up to an affordable long term contract that will turn out to be a bargain later.
Popcorn chicken...with club sauce...
They don't want the clock to start ticking
You move them up early and their big league time starts which means the sooner they are here the sooner they are eligible for arbitration and free agency. So getting them up here at 24 25 26 and boom by the time they are arb or fa eligible look at their ages.
nice pick Ian.

But he’s done it 72 times before that. That’s a lot more than most Rockies. Also, orange sized strike zone, so he figured if he didn’t swing at anything not down the middle he’d walk, which is just what happened.

Yup, I'm being serious.
My thoughts of comebacks are going to be just as stubborn as your love for Greg Reynolds. I’m convinced this team can score a ton at any given time, since they can get really hot and really fast. Unfortunately, they can do the same thing with cold streaks, which is what’s hurting us. That, and the player’s idiotic belief that we can’t win on the road.

I'm not sure
we looked so good for 8/9 of that game, either. These guys need to reach down a bit and get it together. So disappointed in Marquis. I’ve been thrilled with what he’s done this year, but talk about leaving on a down note, about as anti-clutch as I can recall 4 of his last 5.
At least they brought in Belisle at the right time, when the game is over
not in a crucial situation
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.
Well, at least we can take satisfaction in that Byrnes is out.

For now on let just have Marquis match up against the good pitchers..
and our good pitchers against the crap pitchers….this way we actually beat the crap pitchers w/o Marquis interfering and screwing it up.
Time for Tracy to quite simply "believing" in the return of the offense
and take some pro-active steps to try and help solve it.

Atkins instead of Stewart?

I don’t think so. I think I would do EYJ for Barmes, and Dex for Hawpe, because they’ve both been slumping so long, but beyond that, he’s pretty much got to let them play.

even so, he can get past the fences...
so I don’t mind him doing that…

Someone needs more hits and runs- Brad Hawpe, I'm looking at you...:)
Yorvit is about the only one
not swinging for the fences every single AB
and that is a good thing....

too many lefties in the line-up makes it easy to manage against.
this is our best lineup vs righties and best defensive (other than at catcher). we need to see this the rest of the season:
cargo L
dex R
helton L
tulo R
smith L
yorvit R
stewie L
barmy R
Let's replace Barmy R with EYJ S mkay?

given 3 huge errors/misplays in the last 3 games i'd be wary of ey2
atkins
tulo (he can be forgiven of course)
hawpe
Because Barmes .264 OBP with RISP is outtasite!

I like this set up better....
I’m sick and tired of opposing team throwing in the letfy specialist and shutting the guys down

is this standard on FSN broadcasts?
If the home team loses they sulk and won’t do an on-air broadcast or is it just the Rox?
I can't decide whether I'm hungry or just really tired.

player of the game, no matter who wins

Wow
I come back to this what happened?
"I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline... I firmly believe that any man's finest hour - this greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle, victorious." - Vince Lombardi
Bad denfense...AGAIN and of the course the usal 2nd half bad outting of Marquis

Two bad defensive plays
Tulo trying to get another difficult lead runner at 2nd on a grounder, Barmes doesn’t make the tag: no outs: followed by 3 runs
Hawpe catches up to a ball, has it in his glove, it falls out and runs along his stomach next to the wall, before dropping to the ground, leading to 2 more runs
that's why I was saying you can't pin this solely on Hawpe...

Tulo's gaffe didn't really hurt...
since the next batter hit into the nifty 3-6-1 double play. That left a runner on third with two outs, which would have been the case had Tulo gotten the sure out at first. But Marquis the gave up an RBI single and a two-run bomb to Brandon Allen.
But it was definitely a poor play by Tulowitzki.

Marquis actually looked pretty sharp at first
he was just squeezed big time by the ump, until it got into his head
I agree with you on this point...

we seem to have gotten over that HURDLE
"TuLoRocks2008 had the most comments I've seen in any game thread this year (322)...Can such a feat be eclipsed?" ..... Bring it on!!
Let's hope the Rox are pissed too

This is the most pessimistic I've felt about this team since, well, ever.
I honestly thought “Oh, I hope the rest of the season doesn’t have a mets-caliber-choke in store for us.”
Never give up, never surrender.
Even if we don't make the playoffs
this cannot be compared to the Mets meltdown……

Which is why
I immediately felt guilty for thinking it.
But still, I did think it. I want the rockies to bring my optimism level back up, stat.
Never give up, never surrender.
they don't care if they lose

the way the rockies are playing allows dodgers
to not play with a sense of urgency
probably something to that...
And SF now leads 7-4

Maybe they just want to stay sharp
by not running away with anything
Who would have thought
we’d even be in this position in May under Hurdle?
we can longer trust marquis
4 of 5 poor outings in a row.
A strongly worded game wrap has been posted.
This team needs to tighten its ship, that’s for certain.
