Spring Training Game #20: Jhoulys Chacin vs. Gaby Hernandez

It's Aaron Cook's spot in the rotation today, but the Rockies have decided to keep him in Tucson to pitch in a minor league game rather than ship him the potential three hours to Surprise.  So while we will be following the official major league Spring Training game here, there's still plenty of interest in how Aaron Cook recovers from two putrid outings.

In Cook's place will be right-hander Jhoulys Chacin to face the Kansas City Royals and Gaby Hernandez.  If Friday or Colorado's recent history against the Missouri royalty is any indication, we are screwed today.

I am going to go take a nap now.  I'm exhausted from driving through the night from Tucson back to Colorado.

The game today is on MLB.tv, KOA, Gameday Audio and FSN.  MLB Network will air a tape delay later tonight.

Televised baseball = win

And a decent amount of regulars in the lineup as well. I would have rather seen Cook pitch, but I can understand the reasoning behind having him pitch in the minor league game instead.

But the Rockies didn’t have the pitching they have now in the early parts of last decade. And you always want someone with great hitting and great fielding over someone with great hitting and poor fielding. Also, Walker was better at hitting than Hawpe.

Unless Kurt Birkins looks exactly like Scott Rice, I maintain this is Scott Rice.

It’s Scott Rice.

First Offense?

Eleven of fifteen Rox hitters in today’s box score, as of the middle of the ninth, had batting averages over .300!

We may never need a closer (though, it would certainly be nice, if Frankie Mo comes through for us).

we should have held him

until the end of the game to find out if he could
