Rockies bats roll over Livan Hernandez, much ground gets covered.

in Rockies Game Wraps
Email
PrintCarlos Gonzalez's return has been a boon to the Colorado Rockies lineup, and Livan Hernandez proved to be a salve for what's been ailing the Colorado offense, as the Rockies matched their season high for runs scored and rapped out 19 hits in beating the Nationals 15-7 on Saturday night. Gonzalez, batting third, had two hits and scored two runs, and showed once again that his presence tends to stabilize the rest of the offense to be able to do good things.
Chris Iannetta and Ty Wigginton each hit home runs. Iannetta had four hits in all and scored three times while Troy Tulowitzki also had three hits, including two doubles and drove in three of the Rockies runs. Added to Friday night's three hits, Iannetta now has seven in his last nine at bats and is on a six game hitting streak that's seen his batting average rise from .220 to .245. He's been hitting .478 during the streak.
Jhoulys Chacin continued his inconsistent, walk prone ways of late, and while he did walk the tightrope somewhat well okay tonight, allowing just three runs on five hits and five walks in five innings of work, he shows that there's still some adjustment and maturation that needs to take place before he can lead the Rockies rotation. Greg Reynolds had a rough inning of relief following Chacin, allowing the Nationals other four runs, but Matt Belisle, Rafael Betancourt and Rex Brothers stopped the bleeding after that to allow the Rockies to run away with the game.

and i cried inside a little bit. This division was so winnable. :(

I still can't believe Nicasio has no damage to his spinal cord.
I didn’t even let myself hope for that. Obviously he’s still got a tough recovery ahead of him, but that was the absolute best news I heard all day.
totally agree
the bleed didn’t remotely surprise me. The fracture did – I was thinking some serious cervical vertebrae issues, but fracture did not occur to me. I’m just SO glad his prognosis is as good as it is.

Despite the fact that my partner has a serious crush on the guy. I just liked him.
Get your purple on.
The last time the division was this close this late..
Was August 6, 2005
SDP 55-55
ARI 53-59
LAD 49-61
SFG 48-61
COL 41-68
The Pads finished out 2 games above .500 on their remaining games with an 82-80 record..
The next best team was the Giants who finished 1 game above .500 and the Rockies were 1 game below .500 but finished with a record of 67-95.
If this season ends that way, the Rockies could take the division with a 10 game winning streak.

I don't really eat cold cereal, unless I'm hungry and it's my only option.
But if that’s what they’re having, I just go home and eat.
Yeah, but cold cereal tells a lot about a person..
like if you eat Shredded Wheat it means you’re uber serious.
Or if you eat a kids cereal you’re immature.
Or if you Kashi cereal with almond milk, you’re just trying to make your wife think you’re taking part in her weird diet.
I eat Kashi with 2% and
also sometimes mixed in with yogurt. What does this say about me?

I have not seen a study done but it seems like teams who participate in these 18+ inning games go through a rough stretch in the next month
The Rockies played pretty bad for a while after that 22 inning game.

Looooong story short
Mom and Dad were having marital problems. Mom got she and I tickets to see the Nuggets. Because Mom and Dad were so distracted with their problems they sort of neglected the car repairs. Halfway over to the stadium, the brakes gave out and my Mom had to drive the car into a small boulder in the parking lot of McDonalds. Never got to the game and big ass family fight.

That sucks, you didn't even get to wreck the car into the boulder?
My 16th birthday was on a Saturday, so I had to wait until the weekday to get my license. But Monday was a national holliday, so it wasn’t until Tuesday I could drive. Then it snowed 6 inches and almost couldn’t take the test. I couldn’t see the lines at all. Fortunately I passed missing the most points a person can miss and still pass the test.
Man.
I still don’t have my license.

I had to wait a bit longer to get my license
because well, the car was old and breaking down. My mom refused to let me drive that car. On the plus side, this prompted my Mom to get my Dad to buy a new car. So we ended up getting a stick shift that my Mom made me learn to drive before she’d let me get my license. I’m grateful that she did that, made me a better driver.

It's not, like, brilliant or anything.
But I like most of the characters, and it entertains me enough.
(The last episode I watched, there was even a pretty good “Heck yeah!” moment. I actually cheered.)
To add to the game wrap, I just wanted to point out that Dex set a career mark for RBIs.
Meaningless stat aside, that’s pretty cool for him.
Speaking of RBI's
Did anyone see the temper tantrum David Ortiz threw the other day when the official scorer only gave him one RBI on a play on Thursday?

Yeah, I’m a Rockies fan. But still………..They can’t expect to win 90+games when they give up 7ERs a game. And don’t comment and say they don’t always do that. Because I watch every Rockies game and THEY do. They really need to improve their pitching along with their bullpen. Trading Ubaldo was the stupidest thing they could’ve done, because they didn’t even get any good pitchers back in return. Retards….

You're right:
They can’t expect that, of course. Their imbalance of scoring runs is deadly.
But they got two good pitchers for Ubaldo. Look out for this guy: Drew Pomeranz. He could be wonderful.

Hey don't forget.
There was that game where the Braves IBB’d Ty Wigginton to get to Carlos Gonzalez. It better show up at least twice in the dvd of the season. I could probably keep coming up with more bright spots all night.*
*Okay I could probably think of like three more before I get bored.

Besides, Todd Helton is a bright spot unto himself.

Todd is pretty much powering the stadium lights.
Remember that game where Giambi hit 3 HRs? I have never been a huge fan of him on the roster, but holy carp it’s fun to watch him murder baseballs when he’s on.
there is something missing here...
Oh Yea…………………DUCT TAPE!!!!
DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO DROP UBALDO AND NICASIO FROM MY FANTASY LEAGUE? I'VE HAD UBALDO SINCE 2008.
Self taught and falling in love with this game is very easy to do, you can never hate it, and that is something that not one person can take away from anybody. The love of baseball and OUR COLORADO ROCKIES.

I said this yesterday, I'll say it again. Rockies need to worry about their seasonal needs.
Hence, make more deadline trades. Thats how the big market teams do it. And they ALWAYS make the playoffs every year…They don’t worry SO MUCH about the longterm, but the short term. And the Rockies are one of the richer teams out there.
mets cubs dodgers orioles all disagree with you RE payroll
also it only makes sense to make a big deadline move if it can help you win that season, unless you’re getting a standout young player ala pence, bourn, etc

Rockies are definitely not one of the richest teams.
And always worrying primarily about the short term is hot a good way for a mid-market team to operate. You have to pay attention to both.
We need a baseball equivalent of Jimmer Fredette
so we can get three-pointer all the time and win.

Sorry, I've moved on.
I’m also over Wiggy homer=loss jokes, and any jokes that combine Troy Tulowitzki’s name with Clint Barmes’ name when he pops up.
well, since it's been conclusively proven that the rox are also over the Wiggy homer = loss jokes
and I’ve never been a fan of the Clint Tulowitzki or what have you, I’m down ;-)

is because he broke the curse today.

I think almost all of my posts have been in game threads.
Or game wraps.
Rockpiles intimidate me because I’m at work while most of the conversation goes on and I feel like everything’s mostly been hashed out by the time I get there.
Also because my actual baseball knowledge is not that great, and unsupported opinions are never popular round these parts (which is why I love it).
This
I know when I’m out of my element, and I have nothing new to add by the time I get home.

I love the Rockpile and it's discussions.
Before this year, I wasn’t able to do game threads except on my phone.
But yeah, the RPs. Of course, I don[t work or anything…makes it easy.

Around here, we like to be lighthearted and have fun most of the time. GTs are my favorite – most logistically do-able for me, and like having a party to watch the game with fifty of your friends. Poking fun is fine, but as we are not Giants fans, we like to do it with a certain finesse and intelligence. ;-)

HOW BOUT THEM ROCKIES? What a great win after such a terrible thing last night. Dammit guys! NOW THIS HOW YOU PLAY BASEBALL! All except for the Reynolds experience in the 6th inning. I was following along mobile on Gameday. I saw him in and I said “Why in the hell did he put him in?” We are trying to win a ballgame here not give it away. Glad to see everyone have good nights and this is how we should be playing. What is Juan’s condition and injury severity? Everything come out good for the kid?
DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO DROP UBALDO AND NICASIO FROM MY FANTASY LEAGUE? I'VE HAD UBALDO SINCE 2008.
Self taught and falling in love with this game is very easy to do, you can never hate it, and that is something that not one person can take away from anybody. The love of baseball and OUR COLORADO ROCKIES.
Broken C-1 vertebra, surgery to stabilize went well
Some internal bleeding where the ball hit.
Has all feeling in extremities and remembers what happened.

Well Cargo came back today
So we still have the same number of outfielders, except Cargo instead of Spilly. I think EY2 will keep getting starts in LF.
Oh yeah, that's right, how did I miss that?

I'll admit I'm not a huge EY2 fan
but I am really happy with what he’s done recently. It’s exactly I think what the Rockies have always needed from him. I say keep playing the hot hand.
Well that .238 AVG with a .630 OPS over the past week is pretty sexy..
Makes that .226/.313/.238 for the year look really bad.
....
ey is hitting .278/.409/.333 with 3/0 SB/CS in august, good for .380 wOBA
that’s sexy to me, but maybe i just have a success fetish

As much as I'd like to see a little run here
I don’t see any way it can really happen with how badly roughed up the pitching is…
this is true
but who knows what could happen? especially with an appropriate callup…

As was said way above in the comments
I’ll be happy with just good baseball from here on out.
Let the cream rise to the top. See who goes out there ready to play even when the team is out of it.
just to remind you, in 2007 the pitching was so banged up we had Tim Harikkala and Mark Redmon making starts down the stretch.
It’ll be more about several parts of the offense clicking at once if it’s too happen again.

As the posters in 07 would say..."It could happen".
We just gotta wait for September. Then maybe Tulo will hit another 14 HRs and get the Rockies back in it.
Tulo has been having an incredible second half
and not much is happening…
However, not that CarGo's back, there's a three-headed dragon in the middle of the lineup waiting to eat pitchers alive!

(and possibly even Dex if he can keep this up)

Or just let Giambi play everyday.
Not going to ‘state’ anything. But I will speculate: When hes played doesn’t it seem like hes hitting a little too many homeruns for how many ABs.{not a question}
Well he's on the DL so it's moot at this point in time anyway
But the dude is like 40. Do you think that maybe his numbers are only as passable as they are because he’s not trying to play every day at age 40?
Your right, hes 40.
Even if they don’t play every day or even every other day. He shouldn’t be hitting 8HRs in ?50-60? ABs? that he did. Did you also forget his 4HRs in two days?
Hes too big!!!
I say we stick him at first and move Todd to third. Todd hasn’t grown that big of a beer belly. Or yet.
Todd at 3rd?

Holliday

No, they would want them.
Rockies could just do what they’re famously known for, sign some rundown players who turn out to be good playing for them.
Or get some more prospects from Dominican Republic.
who is rundown? Hammel? Ok, he might be. Who else?

That’s four rundown players right there
lee has made it clear he does not pitch on short rest

arizona's pitching doesn't have potential?
are you unfamiliar with ian kennedy and dan hudson? tyler skaggs, jarrod parker, patrick corbin, wade miley, michael belfeore? that’s pre-2011 draft, too

kershaw billingsley and kuroda is a pretty good top 3

Hmmm...
I forgot it was actually pretty decent. Don’t even know what’s up with that team…
Tbh their starting rotation is better than the Rockies.
Clayton Kershaw and Chad Billingsley are good…
SUNDAY, SUNDAY

9 Games Back
Here’s what needs to happen to compete:
Diamondbacks need to stumble
Rockies need to win enough to get within three games of the Giants by the time they face them near the end of the season so a sweep would win the division
In other words, make up six games over the next two months. Doable. Just don’t know about the pitching…
QUIT GIVING ME HOPE OH NOESSSSSSSSS

Honestly
now that I look at the schedule, there is also a four-game homestand against the Giants before that three-game series, which could potentially make that last trip more meaningful than we’ve been anticipating…
Yeah, but they also have a four-game homestand aginst the Giants a little bit before that series in San Fran
and could make up enough ground to avoid having to sweep the last series.
Im off to bed...Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the morning. SEE YALL TOMORROW!
GO ROCKIES!
DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO DROP UBALDO AND NICASIO FROM MY FANTASY LEAGUE? I'VE HAD UBALDO SINCE 2008.
Self taught and falling in love with this game is very easy to do, you can never hate it, and that is something that not one person can take away from anybody. The love of baseball and OUR COLORADO ROCKIES.
Okay goodnight you crazy kids

Final Stretch of the 2011 Season
4 Games vs. Giants
3 Games vs. Padres
4 Games @ Astros
3 Games @ Giants
Those four series could be huge if the Rockies can make a comeback and get within striking distance. The Padres and Astros could be a potential 7-game winning streak if playing up to speed with possibly both White and Pomeranz in the rotation by then. I can smell the playoffs again!
/Turns out the lights
IT'S LIKE 2007 ALL OVER AGAIN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DON'T SAY THAT
FFFFFFFFFFF TOO MUCH HOPE
