All things considered, Clayton Mortensen was marvelous. Let's hope he doesn't get Bum'd (or, as we're more familiar with, Hammel'd).

How tall is he?
Maybe he just looks short compared to Hammel or Mortensen (he’s pretty tall, isn’t he?).
6' even
I guess that’s not terribly short, but he throws 97, so I thought he’d have a bit more on him I guess.

May I be the 1st to second guess this?
I’m excited to see the kid and all, but let’s face it — if the Padres score they will win this game. Perhaps someone not making his MLB debut would be the better call?
Normal 7th inning guy not available.
I could see using Belisle instead. But at the same time, what if we play a bunch of close games coming up, which seems likely? Can’t let him sit forever before getting him in there. And it is the bottom of the order.

Go back to the end of April
and trade him because his value will never be higher
It's Jim Tracy's Fault.
I'm hesitant to say that about anyone.

2 questions
Wasn’t Mortensen supposed to be out of the rotation w/ Cook coming up? He pitched great today and all, but I am confused as to our rotation at this point. Also, I thought Tracy was going to use Brothers in a “soft” situation? This is definitely not that. I love this kid though, and he has dominant stuff.

I see
so it is still undecided between him and Nicasio?

Also, see my post a bit above about Brothers.
Have to get him in sometime. Can’t wait for situation that might not come for awhile.
To point #1
Mortonsen probably becomes the long guy. Likely not good news for Reynolds. If Nicasio falters, Morty moves back into the rotation

As I see Nelson play so far
it just makes me wonder what they did not see in him. I understand he will have his tough times, but he is a 1st round pick, and was doing well, and when he was called up last year he did pretty well, but he never got a legit shot. Its a little confusing to me, and when he again shows well, it is just all the more head scratching.

thats exactly what it was
They said so on the broadcast when nelson got his first start. Tracy was unhappy with his work ethic, thought he wasn’t mentally ready to be a major leaguer, but is really happy with how Nelson has matured

I definitely understood
thats why it took him so long to get where he was last year or was it the year before? However, he has looked plenty good enough for the better part of 2 seasons, but hasn’t been given a real shot before guys like EYJ and Herrera. I just think that is a bit perplexing.

I can kind of see thinking that Barmes should be pronounced that way.
Barnes is normally one syllable, so people might assume Barmes is the same. But of course announcers should no better.
I had this thought process way back when I first read his name
But once you hear one time, it should stand out because it isn’t like Barnes… at least that was how it worked for me
Maybe
But this guy think that the AL East is God’s gift to humanity and pretty much knows nothing about players in other divisions – including the AL Central and West.

Ah very good point.
Didn’t think about that one. We may just win this thing.
two balls will be hit to the warning track in the bottom of the 9th.
and we’ll squeak out a win.

That's been happening to me tonight too
Not used to watching on TV I guess, and especially not one with DVR
The worst thing about this season?
The baseball has been tedious. I like a pitchers duels as much as the next guy, but 2-1 games night after night after night? Say what you will about the Blake Street Bombers, but those games were a hoot to watch.
This is just dull.
And yet I keep watching… :)
And I wouldn't find it dull...
if they were intense and fundamentally well-played games. But that’s not really what we’re seeing.
2 pieces of interesting minor league news
Billy Buckner still sucks pretty bad. And Stew was 3-4 with a walk and no K’s. Could this change to his stance and his hand placement be huge for him? I sure hope so.
"Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny."

"Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny."
Jack Handy quote
the game before he had 3 K's, and hit a bomb
He has 5 k’s in 5 games since the change, but has hit 3 HR’s and the last 2 days, he is 5-7 with a HR and a 2B, 2BB’s and no K’s.
"Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny."

I am a little too
but he is by far the most talented hitter we have at that position and IMO would change this lineup in a huge way if he could take that step.

I feel like these Rockies could find a way to score more runs than their opponents and still lose.
It’s been brutal lately.
I just go in with well whatever happens happens.

it's been in my gut since the 6th inning or so.
Street is tailor-made for the starring role in this.
I hate my own negativity, but have to call a spade a spade.
True backbreakers like this one occur in the ninth though. Like the Save Street blew last week against AZ.
that game was not a blown save, actually

How much longer can we manage these low run support games?
Not including this game the Rockies offense has only managed 58 runs over the last 16 games (3.6/game), unless you take out the 12-run and 15-run outbursts in Arizona and St.Louis, then its 31 runs over 14 games (2.2/game)

But the guys to turn this offense around will be Gonzalez and Tulowitzki

It's unrealistic to expect him to do it himself,
but maybe in some sort of domino-effect way. It’s definitely worth a shot, in my opinion. But really, it’s up to Tulo and CarGo if the offense is going to go anywhere significant.
It would also help to start Seth Smith everyday. He is far superior to alternatives such as Spilly, EY2, and Wiggy right now.

true
but they wont be able to do it themselves, they will need someone to consistently get on base at either the #1 or #2 spots and its looking like nobody is stepping up yet recently (except for maybe EY2…. sort of). Does it make sense to try out Helton or Iannetta hitting #2?… they’re the only two that can get on base somewhat consistently so far.

Street always looks so much more comfortable with more than a one run lead.
pounds the strike zone and lays off the nibbling. Which seems to set up that slider which is a hell of a pitch when it’s working.

Because I love the game of baseball.
I love watching the Rockies with my son and watching his passion for the game grow to a lifelong love affair with a great sport. Sorry if my frustration ruins your night but it’s basically the equivalent of booing them at a game, which is a perfectly acceptable behavior if the team’s performance merits such a response. I enjoy the interaction of the fan community on this site, and am blown away by the effort put in by the folks who maintain it – which is the primary reason i’m here.
I understand your perspective, I really do
Except that your actions are more akin to of preemptive booing of the team at a game. And that serves no positive purpose at all for anyone.

Apodaca really lit into Mortensen
I was surprised to hear that
Pads got BABIP'd to death in the first four innings.
I would agree with Dac. That said, I like how Mortenson battled to get a six inning quality start.
Mortensen got results when he needed to.
But to me he didn’t pitch quite as well as the results suggest.
