Rockies 1, Reds 0: Vintage Cook Roasts Reds' Brooms
by Andrew T. Fisher on Jul 18, 2010 2:18 PM MDT
in Rockies Game Wraps
Email
PrintThe Rockies averaged 1.5 runs and 4.5 hits in the first two games of this series. You have to improve on that in order to avoid a sweep, except when you don't. Thank you very much, Aaron Lane Cook.
The Cookie Monster was dominant all afternoon, as we have come to expect in Cincinnati. The right-hander tossed seven scoreless innings, striking out a season-high-tying eight, walking one (intentionally) and allowing six hits - two as infield hits. He had a 12-4 groundout to flyout ratio and needed just 82 pitches to finish his seven innings. That is exactly what the Rockies needed.
After today's game, Cook is now 3-0 with a 2.55 ERA (2.95 FIP) in six appearances (five starts) in Cincinnati, which is 25miles from his hometown of Hamilton, Ohio.
As for the offense, there was hardly anything there. Ryan Spilborghs singled in the fourth, followed soon thereafter by a line drive single from Chris Iannetta. The Rockies' catcher provided the only run in the game when he turned on a 2-2 changeup from Reds starter Travis Wood for a home run in the sixth, important for Iannetta, as he wasted a prime scoring opportunity in the second by grounding into a double play with two on and no out.
Still, the three hits off Wood represent the second-most any team has managed off the lefty in his four career MLB starts. Grabbing at straws again? Yeah....definitely. Let's get out-of that "bandbox" in Cincinnati and get our offense better in Miami.
Cincinnati nearly pulled out a tie in the ninth, as Drew Stubbs blooped a single and Ryan Hanigan lined a single to center with one out on Huston Street. The Rockies closer managed to "slide" out of the jam by striking out the side, all three with sliders down and away.

well I checked on the scoreguide
and it says that NYM/SF is supposed to be on MLB Network, but it’s showing an old World Series game. The problem oftentimes though is that Comcast Sports doesn’t like to play well with others and so doesn’t allow their games in certain markets to be seen outside those markets.
I wonder if Rickie Weeks is within the realm of possibility if Uggla is out?
He does strike out more, but comparable numbers

Most certainly not
One player cannot ruin four full seasons, even if that player is Dan Haren. We won’t have to give up our top five prospects or anything. Probably not more than one of the top five. And whoever that is, the likelihood of him being an integral part of this organization is unlikely, given the hit/miss nature of prospects

Exactly
Let’s say we had to give up Matzek (our #1 prospect) for him. Let’s even say we had to include a top position prospect (say Chris Nelson) to go along with him. I think most people would agree that would be a ridiculous price to give up for Uggla. But even if we did that, we’d have Tulo, Uggla, Barmes, Herrera and Gomez (plus some other guys who would probably emerge over the next 2-3 years) for the middle infield. We’d also have Chacin and Friederich, just to name the top two, who would be on hand to have a shot at the rotation. It would hardly be an organization crippling move. And I say that as somebody who is pretty ambivalent about Dan Uggla…

Feels like we got away with something
Good fortune to avoid a sweep despite having our bats get completely humiliated all weekend. We can hang around in the race but we won’t be contenders until we remember to pack the bats on the plane once in awhile. Its fair to get humbled by a guy like Volquez when he’s dealing (filthy stuff) but the other two cats should not have held us down so easily.
Big ups to Cook today, talk about delivering what the doctor ordered, and just fun to watch.
Also to CDI, huge. Proving that context might not count for much in most stats, but it means everything in the W-L column.
Wood no hit the Phillies until the 10th ,don't forget, and
Arroyo is damn good. Can’t overlook that at all

this, extremely
Not sure why we’re talking about Arroyo and Wood like they’re chopped liver. Wood has been hot and Arroyo has been outstanding for two years in a row now.
Regardless, we could have easily taken 2/3 on this series if we took care of a no out, bases loaded opp on Friday. Nevertheless, it was of paramount importance that Cook threw the ball well today, especially with DLR and Francis struggling, and he STEPPED up. A very good sign

By the way, this is the last Sky Sox game in Portland today. The Padres Triple-A franchise is in a state of flux for 2011, since their ballpark PGE Park is being converted to soccer/football only next season for a new MLS team.
Portland tried three different sites around town as potential sites for a new Triple-A park for 2011, but all three failed.
The question now is whether their owner, Merritt Paulson, will sell the team or just have the team play out of town in Tucson until a new site in Portland can be finalized.

… do you know what the corresponding move was when Anthony Aguilara was promoted from Tri-City? Asheville is rather bd at updating the corresponding moves on their official roster.
by Greg Stanwood on Jul 18, 2010 3:41 PM MDT up reply actions
Aguilera was called up from Casper, not Tri-City. Aguilera was batting .324 with a homer and 4 RBI's at Casper before being called up.
I noticed they had three catchers listed on their roster, and 27 on the active roster, which seems too many. After looking a few things over, Jose Gonzalez is out at Asheville, after apparently breaking his hand in game on Saturday July 10th, according to the Asheville Citizen-Times.
http://www.citizen-times.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2010307130037
The Casper thing was my mistake.
I have it posted correctly on Libra. I’ll update Gonzalez’ injury. Is he on the 7 Day DL or the Minor 60? I assume 7 for now.

Right, which is why I wanted to make certain.
I didn’t see it in the story either. Thanks for the Citizen TImes link; hopefully they’ll cover more of this here, because Asheville never updates their roster unless a player is added. They still have Kent Matthes as active even though he’s been on the DL for over a month.

Let's hope six will be enough, but the way things are going these days, nothing is for certain for the Sky Sox.
By the way, Matt Miller is leading the PCL in hits with 115, and batting around .340. Let’s hope he gets a call-up when the rosters expand in September.
He's in his seventh year of service, and assuming he has the standard minor league contract...
… will be eligible for minor league free agency after this season. Whether or not Miller gets a callup, of course, will depend on roster space on the 40 Man.

by Greg Stanwood on Jul 18, 2010 4:32 PM MDT up reply actions
I hope Miller at least gets a chance at a call-up. He has racked up over 300 hits in 3+ seasons with the Sky Sox.
While his defense is not at “elite level” (granted only two errors defensively), at least Miller’s bat can be quite helpful in that September pennant drive.
The minor league gurus here on PR have never been very high on Miller.
I still agree with you that I’d like to see him see a sneak at the MLB level. Of clourse, if he’s purchased for September, they may elect to keep him on the roster through the offseason, though he’d be an easy cut if they needed extra room for a Rule 5 protection at the reserves filing deadline.

I was thinking back to a similar situation that happened in the Pacific Coast League about 20 years ago.
Back in 1989, the Chicago White Sox had a left-handed pitcher named Tom Drees. With Vancouver, Drees threw three no-hitters, with two of them in back to back starts. Despite going 12-11 with an ERA around 3.40, Drees didn’t even get the call-up to the White Sox because of his inconsistent pitching (more walks than strikeouts). Drees had his ERA below 4.00 in three seasons with Vancouver, and didn’t get the call-up from the White Sox until 1991, and only got a “cup of coffee” stint in the majors, appearing in only four games.
Even Alan Cockrell in the mid 1990’s was a similar situation with the Rockies and Sky Sox. He had over 450 hits in 4+ seasons with the Sky Sox, before get a “cup of coffee” stint with the Rockies, appearing in nine games in 1996.
Rogers taken out after only four innings of work.
Recently reactivated Nick Bierbrodt in relief.

With a linescore filled with threes and fours, Esmil Rogers needs to figure things out, especially with his ERA over seven.
(4 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, with ERA at 7.40) Ouch.
He looked very good in his brief stint back in long relief with us early in the month.
One wonders if the constant back and forth is making it harder for him to adjust back to AAA.

It has been a factor.
Rogers’ starts broken down with Sky Sox before and after Rockies call-ups:
First two starts in April – 10 IP, 2 R, 1 ER
After his first call-up: Five starts in June – 24 IP, 27 R, all 27 ER
His two starts in July – 7 1/3 IP, 6 H, 6 ER
Enough said. ERA over 7 both at home and on the road with the Sky Sox.

Schnaitmann had given up seven homers in his previous starts with Asheville, and six of the seven were at home.
It’s the first time in his minor league career where he has given up three homers in a game.
Greensboro’s ballpark appears to be hitter friendly, too.
2 run home run from Joey Wong not enough to close the gap.

A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.
So I was just reading
Amstrongs’ game summary at the DP, and because I’m an idiot, proceeded to read the comments section. Glad I did in this case:
I feel left out in this forum. All the Rox players are bums. Cook and Ianetta got lucky today. Fill-in-the-blank doesn’t belong in the majors. Trade everyone for imaginary better players. I am a superfan that deserves better. My personal self-worth is tied to the performance of my favorite baseball team in the last twenty-four hours. I can’t stand waiting for stoplights. Dinger has a questionable sexual orientation. The next home game will be canceled due to a locust swarm. OK, now I feel as though I belong. Aaaaaah.
Is this the work of a Rowbot, I wonder?

First PR post
I am a displaced Rockies fan from Kentucky, who gets to see his team play one game a year in person, always against the Reds. At least my fiance and I picked a good one this year.
And can anyone tell me why the Reds have four f***ing mascots!?
I grew up watching Larry Walker and his mullet crush baseballs into the stands, its like a dream come true to see Tulo and his mullet do the same.
by WalkerFan33 on Jul 18, 2010 8:00 PM MDT via mobile reply actions
Welcome to PR!
No idea on the panel of mascots…that seems pretty weird.
Speaking of weird, I have a weird question that you might be able to answer. Why do the Rockies fly in and out of Nothern Kentucky Intl when they play the Reds. Does Cincy not have an airport, or is Covington really closer to the ballpark?

The seats and the game were nothing short of incredable (The final score. Not so much)
I was so close to the field that when Cliff Lee went into his wind up I think he’s cletes were above my eyes. (Really one of the most awesome things I’ve ever gotten to experience)
The end of the game was torture though. I was so sure the Red Sox were going to lose because their record when I went to games at Fenway was 0-12 before last night. It was still a wild atmosphere though and seeing Lee in person is something I’ll never forget.

I was in the 5th row between home plate and the first base dugout (but closer to home plate)
Also, some Red Sox fans had no idea why they were bunting in the bottom of the 9th with McDonald up. They had a lot of alcohol in them at this point but it was still really bad. (The fan I sat right next to was great though and said that he hoped the Rockies win the NL pennant for me)

All information is on the internet.
There’s a great website, www.flightaware.com, that lets you track flights. Because The Rockies, in the form of Monfort Aviation, own their own plane, it’s very simple to monitor their flights. I even get emails everytime they file a flight plan, take off, and land. I wrote a fanlink about it once.
Anyway here’s a link to the team flight page.

(Note to any lurking Mods: If someone can (and wants to) link up the Purple Row Map here, please feel free. I can’t seem to find the dang thing. kthanx.)
Get your purple on.
Dont they have a female mascot, too?
I remember reading that while researching MLB mascots. Her name was Rosie Red or something. And they might have retired her, I’m not sure….but I am sure I want a different mascot for us.

thats probably better suited to this blog.
Wolf posted a great link this morning to an article on fangraphs talking about not using BABIP anymore – without adding better context to it. I felt it was rather interesting point…

The actual point of the article was to change the way BABIP is seen
into more of an “expected batting average” which I totally agree with. It’s just using BABIP more correctly, since it is often abused

That golf shot was like #5 or something.
Number 2 was some other outfield catch, I don’t remember what game. Guy crashed into the wall. It was pretty good.
Number 1 was Louis Ousthuizen (or however the heck you spell that) winning.
