By the way
Tulo should be benched for not running on that K in the 6th. Absolutely, 100% unacceptable.
The Colorado Rockies aren't a team, they're an armada.
Hurdle did it when he swung at the first pitch which was ridiculous
This is a completely different situation and even I wouldn’t be against that. I’m more pissed at Tulo right now than I’ve ever been. You don’t do what he just did. EVER!!!!

can't disagree with you
that was very strange, taking off the batting gloves when he had to know the ball was live
I really hopw he is asked about this in the post game and he owns up to it because that was embarrassing

Exactly
One of the reasons I love him so much is because he talks about playing the game the right way and pretty much almost always does it. But this was a disgrace on his part and i hope he has to face the music for it because I NEVER want to see that out of him again.
Sure you’re not gonna play great every night but the one thing you can control is your effort.

swinging strike in the dirt
got 30 feet away from the catcher and Tulo was more interested in taking off his batting gloves than running to first
Tulo swung and missed at strike 3 and the ball got away from Posey
Instead of running to first, Tulo just stood there and took his batting gloves off.
The Colorado Rockies aren't a team, they're an armada.
Tulo stuck out
The ball got away up the 1B line and Tulo just stood there and didn’t even try to run to first. he wasn’t going to be safe anyway but just standing there was completely unacceptable; especially for someone who always talks about playing the game the right way.

He did, you're right.
But maybe if he had been able to start both games, we’d have more runs. So thus, I blame his groin.
It's the Greg Reynolds curse.
We should have never sent him down.

I really am starting to question Tracy a lot
Franklin Morales should never be seen again, but why was he on the roster in the first place? Who’s bright idea was it to put Stewart on the roster to start the season? Why would you ever play Wiggy in LF when you have 4 capable outfielders and no one is hurt? Tracy does some good things, but some of this is just crap. Again this game, dunno if Smith is healthy enough to play or not, but why start Spill, Wiggy and Lopez in the same game when all 3 guys are struggling at the plate? Am I the only one thinking some of this?
What do most of these things have to do with Tracy?
by DumbAndNerdy on Apr 19, 2011 8:50 PM MDT up reply actions
Tracy picks who plays and when does he not?
I don’t blame him so much for stewart, but he has to have a say in the matter doesn’t he?
sanchez is basically kershaw...
ridiculous against lefties, and mediocre/bad against righties

Right. That was one of your three questions. The last one.
The other three (“most”) are not really about Tracy, or Tracy alone. I’m not a fan of the guy, but the questions you ask are not all on him.
by DumbAndNerdy on Apr 19, 2011 8:55 PM MDT up reply actions
More like 2 and 2
O’Dowd certainly isn’t telling Tracy to stick Wiggington in LF or when to start anywhere and where in general. Or at least I don’t think he is.
On a day-to-day basis he's certainly not.
But they certainly do talk about that kind of stuff. And really, Wigginton hasn’t been in LF that many times.
Why would he be there at all though?
How is that ever a good decision unless it is an emergency?
Wigginton's role dictates that he plays around the field though.
So, it isn;t just him on that.
by DumbAndNerdy on Apr 19, 2011 8:59 PM MDT up reply actions
A better question would be:
Why did Tracy leave Morales in? That’s something that he had direct, sole control over.
by DumbAndNerdy on Apr 19, 2011 8:58 PM MDT up reply actions
You mean for a second inning?
Or just before the homer? I don’t think that was the worst decision ever.
because j. sanchez posts a 1.45 WHIP, 4.16 FIP, and 4.35 xFIP against RGB for his career

I do agree
that Tracy tends to love the platoon a little too much, and when he rest the starters he tens to rest one too many at the same time.

by Colsportsfan on Apr 19, 2011 8:55 PM MDT up reply actions
Thats more my complaint then anything
I don’t blame him for Stewart or Morales being on the team, but I do blame him for when/where he plays Stewart and Morales. Although in his defense it is never a good time to pitch Morales.
I know, right?

I thought the same thing at first
but he missed that pitch by 4 inches so there’s no way he thought he fouled it off
I sure hope this was the case but I can't think of any plausable reason why he would have thought this and I've played it back a few times
I’m really disappointed in him. (Unless there was some good reason he had to think that)

He’s been rockin the Mariners teal in his webbing.

his third base glove has the teal webbing and his second base glove has the purple. He is still trying to break in a third base glove with purple webbing. I read it in an article last week.
So he's cursing us with 93 Diamondbacks colors

Dear Jim Tracy:
I like to see the Rockies win baseball games. In light of that fact, I would like to see the best players play, and have them put out their daily. I understand there is an injury, but Spilly has no business batting 2nd. Also, starting both Wiggington and Lopez in the same game is just not intelligent. You have one of the best OBP guys on the club right now, and you aren’t putting him in the starting line-up.
Sure, you play the wizard manager every once in a while, but gambling on silly moves every night really gets tiresome.
Thanks.
Herrera will be back in the lineup tomorrow
He needs days off too. If Spilly is not in the lineup then Wiggs and Lopez have to play. And Lopez and Wiggy got on 4 times in a game where the whole team got on only 9 times. I’d say Wiggington is starting to look a lot better recently, and with Stewart down, someone has to play third.
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings. ~Earl Wilson
