Thursday Rockpile: Rockies pit strategy falling short.

Ubaldo Jimenez came out flat, while the Rockies offense had one good inning in them last night. That's not really a recipe for success, especially with Matt Belisle struggling as well later. If there is any good news from yesterday, it's that Jason Hammel's dead right arm might not be that dead.
- Hammel has no pain, will start against Giants - The Denver Post
- Rockies' bullpen going through change | ColoradoRockies.com: News
While the rotation wheezes, the bullpen is in flux. Joe Beimel's been losing high leverage appearances to Matt Reynolds.
Meanwhile, our opponents aren't going through these issues:
The Giants rotation is fresh heading into the last three series of the season. While this certainly qualifies as good news for them in terms of this year, it also highlights some of the providence that they've received. All five of their starters are in line to have been on the mound for 30 or more starts in 2010 (for Madison Bumgarner, this includes AAA) when all is said and done, and health like that for an MLB rotation is pretty rare.
The rub for San Francisco and the boon for the rest of the division for the future is that this kind of health blessing doesn't last. One of my crazy off season predictions when we get there will be that one of the Giants current five man rotation misses significant time, 10 starts or more , in 2011 due to injury. To up the crazy factor, I'm going to predict that it's not Barry Zito. Or at least not only him. Without significant starting depth on their farm, getting a quality alternate will be important for them this winter.
Similar to the Giants rotation, the Padres bullpen is apparently feeling no fatigue. That the Rockies are currently running on fumes while their rivals are energized probably shouldn't be seen as an indictment of the team's training and conditioning. Altitude will have an effect in this and as I mentioned with regard to the Giants rotation, luck is a big factor as well.
Seth Smith is slumping and losing playing time as a couple of the notes columns have indicated, but after the season he'll be going back to Mississippi to speak at a Wild Game Dinner. I'm guessing they're going to be talking about June 19, or some of the other times Smith has gone crazy on opponents late. Good times.
Alright, so here's the question that Armstrong fails to ask, and if he did, it would save himself some angst. If the Rockies thought that it would be either Olivo or Iannetta staying after 2010, why did they sign both to starter level deals before the season began? Why offer Yorvit Torrealba a similar multi-year deal? The answer seems to me, and I agree with it, that the Rockies want two starting level catchers on their 25 man roster. No position wears down over the course of the season as much as a catcher does, I doubt any position is as prone to injury. If Iannetta's not the second starting level catcher on the Rockies and they do trade him, than don't be surprised if they go after another.
It's not like the Rockies are alone in this approach, either. As frugal as the Rays are, they also have made it a priority to have multiple contender level catchers on their squad. The Padres have Torrealba and Nick Hundley. The Reds have Ramon Hernandez and Ryan Hanigan. If you have a perennial All Star behind the plate (or a future perennial All-Star as the Giants seem to) it makes sense to ride that one guy as much as possible. Otherwise, having two decent backstops seems to be a working strategy for most mid and small market teams.

It’s not like I’m gonna stop watching or anything…I still love my team. But, their playoff chances frustratingly went away last night, so my annual second half beard had to go.

Pitching, pitching, pitching
You really can’t have too much of it.
SF has enough due to their 5 uninjured starters.
SD has enough due to their bullpen.
The Phils were short of it, pulled out their checkbook, gave up a prospect, and got
a guy who’s currently the best starting pitcher in the Majors: Roy Oswalt.
The Rockies are essentially out of pitching at this point in this season.
There are lessons to be learned from that for next year.
The Rockies need to get more of it — either more reliable starters, or a complete
bullpen like SD’s, in the offseason. Based on recent years, Cook and Francis don’t belong in the “reliable” category anymore. Losing JDLR will only make the
shortage worse.
While catcher wars are intriguing, as is who to platoon Helton with and who of the 4 candidates at 2B is the best, the offseason focus needs to be on pitching, and then on pitching, and then on pitching.
Mediocrity sucks
These are facts I can get behind
but remember preseason where we thought we had the best 6 or 7 man rotation?
Ubaldo
DLR
Hammel
Cook
Francis
Chacin
Smith
Rogers?
And pretty much all of it is burned out now?
For all the good we did last year in having a healthy rotation, we’re seeing what happens when another team has it and we don’t.
by Andrew Martin on Sep 23, 2010 8:53 AM MDT up reply actions
Well, Cook & Francis were question marks
with their multiple injuries & performance issues in the last few years.
Smith we pretty much knew didn’t have the stuff to cut it as a ML starter.
Chacin was unproven over the course of a season, though he’s worked out well.
Rogers, even now, is very questionable as a starter, though he looks like he
can be a pretty good long reliever.
So we weren’t that long on starting pitching to begin with.
And we’re even shorter now if JDLR is subtracted from that list.
We’re left with Jiminez, Chacin & Hammel, who has his own reliability issues.
I don’t see any minor league starters ready for the Show.
It’s going to cost money and/or top prospects for starting pitching. A 3-yr deal is probably
the minimum it’s going to take to get another proven starter, and we need more than
one. It’s decision time for the Montforts: spend the $$$ to get enough starting pitching
for “The Window” while Tulo, Cargo & Ubaldo are still around, or cross fingers and
hope Francis & Cook can provide some more effective full seasons.
Mediocrity sucks
Most valuable pitching staff in MLB this year. Remember that. Remember it well.

I don't know of any relievers that rely on pinpoint control
as much as Francis would. To me, he seems to be a starter or nothing.

Francis is only in his first season back from injury, I am optomistic that he improves.
Not sure they will resign him, but a good offseason training plan and spring and he has the potential to improve.
by CORockFaithful on Sep 23, 2010 9:19 AM MDT up reply actions
I don't like thinking about the Francis situation.
The fact that it may be best for the team to let him go just makes me sad. :-(
Two things bothering me this morning
1. Why can’t we win games against weaker teams (Pirates, D-Bags)
2. Why the hell is Olivo still playing everyday, he has been terrible since the break and has been terrible all year on the road, I would seriously like to know what Iannetta did to get banished to Chris Nelsonland.
believeR
If CDI doesn't start today
then I would appreciate someone doing a brain scan on Jim Tracy to make sure the grey matter is functioning.
Yesterday’s article highlighted the fact that there is no substantive statistical reason for CDI to not be at least splitting time with Olivo 50/50 at this point. Isn’t it usually the pattern of managers to get position players that have returned from injury into the lineup right away, so that they can get back into the swing of things quicker and not lose their timing? Well, CDI by all accounts was ready on Sunday.

oh yeah, i forgot
Hitting is a little bonus. So keep on with your .200 BA in the second half and your on base percentage around 10 points higher, MIguel. We can take an automatic out as long as you make the pitchers comfortable.
believeR
Although I agree our staff is running on fumes
These last three games are on the offense, which went to sleep twice after early leads. Remember that Chase Field is Coors Lite… especially with the roof open, as we saw last night, and yet the offense mustered nothing against middling starters and a weak bullpen in nearly every inning.

Also not pitching the same 3 guys over and over and over and over and over probably didn’t help things.
Caught this GEM on twitter last night:
I definitely would hesitate to re-sign Belisle. His arm has to be dead.
I don’t know if I can buy into that (or not buy into that….how does this work, with the double negatives?). Belisle is a former starter, and while that excuse isn’t going to whitewash over EVERYTHING, it’s still something. That said, he’s never pitched this many GAMES before.
Thoughts?
While I wouldn't go as far as saying i wouldn't resign him.
I would not expect the same production next year to yield similar results. Some of his early season 2 and 3 inning appearances are having an affect now. But we have some better option(Reynolds) before him
He won't be as good next year, and his performance may command a nice deal from somebody like the Mets.
With that being said, I would like the club to retain him if they can do it for a reasonable price.

Although I think we need to sweep the Giants now.
A win tonight and a 5-1 homestand and see if we are still in it
Anything less and it will be plan for next year. The WC may still be the best option if we can pass one of the teams in front of us…ever
I think we need to sweep our final 10 games
after we most likely lose today.

I have lost my faith in this season, but still have Hope for some good things!
Saw that Dodger’s are going to start Kershaw against us. Given the weak effort they put up against the Padres, is their any doubt which team the like the most/least.
this is silly.
It was silly last week when the Giants fan was accusing of them laying down for us after they rigged their rotation then, it’s silly now. The Dodgers and Diamondbacks are playing these divisional match-ups with the three contenders with their best players. They aren’t showing a rooting interest for anybody except Arizona right now.
I know they did this more to play their prospects against one another than for smite.
Just thought it was interesting they made the point to change the rotation.

It seems to me that the Rockies haven't thrown in the towel.
It looks bleak, but we are still only 3 games out. If we sweep the Gints and win tonight we still have a chance. Get a little help from the Dogs and Cubs. I don’t think one more Hammel start is going to make or break next year’s rotation.

HBO ratings generally are on the decline
Once AMC, FX and the like started making great shows and getting awards, etc., folks started realizing they didn’t need to pony up for HBO to rerun the same 20 movies 150 times per month, and they could still find great drama on TV.

You can order beer on your cellphone from Captain Earthman at Coors Field too
and you don’t need an iphone, and he’s been doing it for at least 10 years.
Maybe that’s what the Phillies were doing with their binoculars…

Ha, I once waited on hold 45 minutes to get to talk with Steve and Sandy....
….this was last summer, and they were bashing the Holliday trade, and chastising the cheep Monfartz for not making a huge push for Halladay…
anyway, they finally put me through, and 30-45 seconds later, my cell phone dropped the call.

It wasn't even sports related, that's the funniest part.
He was talking about how he has a fear of public singing and other birthday humiliations, and I sent him an e-mail about how I had to wear a giant sombrero once on my birthday in a Mexican restaurant. He read it on the air and was horrified. I think I downloaded the podcast and clipped that part, so I still have it somewhere.
Apparently Huston texted SVP back, after being razzed at the end of the interview. Hee.
And SVP loves that he named his son Ripken.
Nice...I thought it was funny that SVP called Huston out on that point.

i still can't believe we lost these last 3 games
especially Sunday and Yesterday…sucks so much knowing we play well against the better teams but we just can’t seem to get out of our way against the worst teams in the league (astros, pirates, dbags)….NL Playoffs is going to be unwatchable if it stays this way…who the hell is going to beat Philly….Pads? No Way in hell…unless they somehow took a 1-0 lead in each game into there bullpen…Braves? Hell no and they are fading and proving they can’t play with Philly…Reds? Double hell no…yeah they have a decent offense but there pitching is so awful…Arroyo and Cueto would be up against Halladay and Oswalt in those first 2 games of a potential series…. :cringes:
time to make another run to the postseason....get it going guys!!
Troy Tulowitzki: "When people think of the Rockies, I want them to think of a winning organization."
I think the Giants have the best chance against Phily
Since they have the best SPing. As much as I cant stand the Giants, I will root for them against Phily
Giants v Philly?
I’ll root for finding good shows on TV or good bands in clubs. A pox on both their houses. If that happens, I’ll root for the Reds.

Interesting thoughts from Keith Law on the D-backs hiring Towers:
Kevin (San Diego): Thoughts on the Kevin Towers hire? Right person for the job?
Klaw: Probably a good place to start. I guess my main objection here is that the D-backs said they were concerned about their farm system and wanted a GM who’d rebuild it … so they hired a GM whose strength was big league trades (and working with the media) and whose weakness was the draft and the farm system. And by the way, if Towers is going to recreate this supposed bullpen magic of his in Arizona, the first thing he’s going to have to do is build a gigantic new stadium in a crevasse, because Chase Field ain’t Petco East.
None of which is to say that Towers is a bad choice, just that the message is all garbled. They said they wanted a GM who would rebuild the farm system, then hired a different guy.
Sure, but the GM still decides priorities, has final say, etc.
And if it was only dependent scouts, than there would be no reason to say that it was a weakness for Towers. Unless he’s hiring bad scouts.
Yep. You need a whole organizational plan
some strategy taking your market, ballpark, existing players, etc into consideration. Then your scouts can scout guys who fit the plan and the GM can make smart trades where needed to fill out the holes in the system. If the GM and the scouts aren’t on the same page you have a big problem. The evidence of this is when a bunch of guys are running out of options and getting DFAd after a cup of coffee or two in the bigs, yet the team isn’t performing well.
It’ll be interesting to see if Towers can put that together in AZ. From what I’ve heard so far, quite a few people there aren’t on the same page.

Too many days off in a row tend to throw players off of their game in baseball.
It’s not like football when you need some time off in between games to let your body recover. Timing suffers for hitters and pitchers aren’t as stretched out. It’s like the 2007 Rockies in the WS or the 2006 Tigers. This would be a disincentive for having the best record in your league.
yeah
i know it wouldn’t happen but the next step would be 8 team playoff….but way too many games and the season would never end…but hey if they want more teams to be involved in races and help the lesser teams like the Pirates, Royals, Nats etc then this wouldn’t be a terrible idea but it wouldn’t be bad only for that reason

But the playoffs are fine as is. If they’re worried about not having enough playoff races, maybe they should look into balancing the schedule. I’d love to play the Cubs, Pirates, and Astros for a majority of the schedule each year.
