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.
Yay the GT

They love injury replays.
They showed the Buster Posey one a bunch of times when I’d purposely been avoiding seeing it, and the Rockies weren’t even involved in that game. It is my least favorite thing about ROOT sports.

If they’re just being stupid and talking about cheesecake and talking with their mouths full I can mute it, but if they are showing graphic pictures with little to no warning, it’s hard to shut it off in time.
And when they’re just using really stupid camera angles that detract from the game, I yell at the TV, but at least it doesn’t make me sick to my stomach.

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.

But this game, it has been fast and fruitless on the offensive side thus far.
fast is correct

Totally agree
Let’s just have EY and Dex get on base…
Davey Johnson... Wow terrible managing there.
So Lannan just batted in the top of the 7th. Johnson could’ve PH’d him there, but didn’t.
Might cost him the game

Helton would have cut down the swing
maybe got on top of it, send it up the middle… but he’s also got over a decade on Tulo.
Not saying I wish he wouldn’t overswing there, but maturity takes time.
Well, yeah.
But Tulo has had these kinds of situations ALL THE TIME and continues to do the same thing.
It’s very frustrating.
@CentralCaliRox
by CentralCaliRox on Aug 7, 2011 3:19 PM MDT up reply actions
Yeah. He hits it out a couple of times
on high fastballs and uses it as justification to keep swinging for the fences against All-Star relievers.
but doesn't that kind of run counter to the "clutch does not exist" arguers
the ones who always say that ABs in the 2nd or 3rd are just as important as those in the 7th and 8th…?
The ABs may be as important
but the type of pitchers/pitches that you are facing a lot of times is vastly different. I remember Greg Maddux saying that he would give up HRs sometimes, just so he could get the same guy out when it really mattered. (Not saying all pitchers are Maddux)
In the 9th, maybe, but earlier...
With the exception of closers, relievers generally aren’t the same caliber of pitchers that starters are… thus why they are in the bullpen. Relievers generally only have two good pitches. If anything, they should be easier to hit; at least more predictable. Tulo’s main problem to me in the late innings is simply trying too hard. Baseball is perhaps the only game in which trying harder usually hurts your chances.
Not the same caliber
but much fresher. Starters have to pace themselves. I think that’s why even most good relievers only need 2 good pitches. They are only throwing about 20 a game. I agree about trying too hard, though. I think that ultracompetitive attitude he has makes him want to beat a pitcher on his pitch (preferably by hitting a HR) rather than wait for his pitch or change his approach.
agreed
but that’s why we should be thankful he’s on a team with Todd. He’ll teach Troy more patience. Who knows, maybe he’ll even become hitting coach upon retirement.

This sounds familiar...
After the final game of the season, Lions’ radio play-by-play announcer Dan Miller summed up the whole year in a few sentences:
Clock ticks down here in Green Bay. The Lions find themselves in a very familiar position. For 16 weeks, starting in Atlanta back in September, they took the field thinking this was gonna be their day. Sixteen times they were wrong, and now there are no Sundays left. By record, they are the worst team in league history. Zero and 16, those are the numbers that will forever be associated with the Detroit Lions.

If there is

yes and no
RISP he’s got a .396 wOBA, however in high leverage situations as a whole it’s only .289, and past the 7th inning we seriously may as well send a cardboard cutout to bat in his place

Yeah but Tracy knew that today was going to be RH heavy
Why not sit Iannetta yesterday? We had almost no power in that lineup, only Tulo (Cargo was going to be a question mark coming back from injury). Sure enough, 9 hits, all singles.

I still believe 29 other teams would be happy for 7 innings of Tulo every day
He’s obviously an incomplete player. But no way does he deserve to sit for even one game.
And if such things could be quantified, for every late-inning run he’s failed to create, he’s probably saved one with his glove and arm.
they can be quantified, it's called linear weights
