Rockies 3, Reds 2: Colorado Squeaks By Rejuvenated Dontrelle

in Rockies Game Wraps

A lot of Rockies fans are silently harboring pipe dreams that 2007 makes a re-appearance this season. It would take about that kind of magic to bring playoff baseball back to Denver this October. Good news for those Rockies fans: 2007 has made a re-appearance. Bad news: you should have been more specific in your prayers to the baseball gods.
Dontrelle Willis has been a disaster since he left the Marlins for the Tigers in 2008, never throwing more than 44 IP in any big league season. The 29-year-old southpaw called upon his Marlins magic tonight, striking out six of the first nine Rockies he faced. He finished the night going 8.0 IP, the longest he has gone since September 25, 2007.
Willis finished the game with 10 strikeouts, a number he had not matched August 14, 2007 against the Diamondbacks. Back when "Rocktober" was only spoken by radio DJs in October. Back when Justin Upton, who struck out four times that day, was still a teenager.
And yet, he wasn't quite good enough to beat the Rockies. Esmil Rogers earned his sixth win of the season by battling significant control problems early. Rogers soldiered through six innings, allowing just two runs. One scored on a triple by the pitcher Willis. The other resulted from a strikeout/wild pitch, single and comebacker fielder's choice, in which the runner Todd Frazier scored from second base.
In all, the Reds managed eleven base-runners against Rogers in six innings, who threw just 66 of 111 pitches for strikes.
While the Rockies struggled with Willis, they actually were very good with runners in scoring position, going 2-for-4 on the night. Dexter Fowler singled with the bases loaded in the fifth with two outs to give Colorado a 3-2 lead, and Troy Tulowitzki fired a two-out two-run laser over the left field wall for his tenth road home run on the season.
Todd Helton struck out three times against Willis, and once against Aroldis Chapman, just the second time Helton has had the golden sombrero in his career.
Josh Roenicke has come out of nowhere to become a bullpen savior. Taken from the minor league scrap heap in early June, the right-hander has joined the bullpen and pitched three consecutive days. The right-hander allowed a weak single and struck out two in operating as the setup man for a bullpen with three arms unavailable. Could he follow Matt Belisle as a former Reds prospect to find a home in the Rockies pen?
With the win, the Rockies clinched a tie at worst in the road series in Cincinnati. With a win tomorrow or Thursday, they can avoid being the victim of Dusty Baker's 300th career win with the Reds.

How is Todd Helton not in the WPA Zeroes column?
He was 0-4 with 4 K’s.
I find that kinda funny. Anyways, great win.. Gotta keep winning though.
Go Pirates!
@CentralCaliRox
Because WPA doesn't differentiate between out types
and he batted with the bases empty 3 times.

It's on MLB Gameday.
They pick 3 players for each team ahead of time and assign certain events (i.e., 4 strikeouts, or home run, or stolen base, etc.). And if one of those happens while you’re following on Gameday, you get that badge. And you have a trophy case that shows all your badges.
Other than that, I have no idea what purpose they serve. I think it’s just something fun.

Strangely enough, Freddie Freeman is not among them.
I’ve got Tim Hudson, Tommy Hansen, Alex Gonzalez, and Craig Kimbrel. Throw in Roy Halladay, Jimmy Rollins, and the aforementioned Jamey Carroll, and my non-Rockies badges outnumber my Rockies badges (I’ve only got 3).
What about a Freddie Freeman 35 HR against the Rockies badge?

Hey, Esmil Rogers might really be a big league starting pitcher. The slider’s not spectacular, but it’s getting better and he’s able to use it well enough to make his fastball a better pitch. He’s been unflappable in some tough spots. I wish he’d throw more strikes early in the count, but that’s a thing that can certainly come with time. I’m much higher on Rogers’ future as a rotation piece than I was two weeks ago, that’s for sure.

Truth
He might never be more than a back end starter, but we could really use a reliable one.

For what it's worth, and it hurts to say this...
Rogers has pitch better than Ubaldo did right before we traded him. It’s like gaining an extra decent pitcher in the trade.

Despite his overall ERA
Rogers has actually been quite in a starting role this season. In 6 starts, he’s only given up more than three runs once. he gives the team a chance to win almost every time out.
I'm pretty disgusted right now!
by RhodeIslandRoxfan on Aug 9, 2011 8:40 PM MDT up reply actions
I talked about this in the GT
I feel that Rogers can be an effective, maybe dominating, bullpen arm starting next year.
I believe his stuff is more like bullpen stuff than rotation stuff. Also, the rotation will probably be full next season, so i’d look for him to slip into the ’pen and be effective.

Yeah, it’s easy to see his stuff playing up out of the pen, but his numbers as a reliever kinda suck. Oh, well, I’m sure we wouldn’t try and shoehorn him into a role he’s not suited for, and then release him after he stunk so we could watch him pitch well in the role he’s actually suited for. Can’t see this team doing such a thing.

Well. Don't forget that RTD claims that was all just a joke
even though JB and Julie Gardner says it wasn’t.
But how else can RTD prove Jack is truly mortal if he doesn’t kill him?
I have another reason why I think he’ll do it. I was watching the comic con panel for Torchwood and when JB was talking about maybe being in the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, he said he loves playing Jack no matter which show. And he seemed like he got a bit emotional about it. Eve Myles put her arm around him and gave him a little supportive pat on the back.
I hope I’m really wrong. But I’m already steeling myself if my speculation is right.

I'm suspecting (hoping?) it might be something they wouldn't bother DL'ing for
if we didn’t need the roster space.
I just like to save my caps lock key and exclamation points for the really earthshaking stuff. Like, if we hired Justin Bieber as the batboy or if MLB made the Giants forfeit 15 of their wins for some reason.

Well,
1) This is your day.

Here's the point though.
There might be a bubblegum pop song from a previous decade that you like that you don’t consider to be pop. Because the stigma on these things tends to fade. As it will with Bieber.
Sigh...ok.
I take exception to your last statement though.
Gah, it’s probably true. Bieber will be classic in 2030.

Tulo uses his song as walkup music. If he is the key to Tulo then he would handle Tulo’s bat before he got to the batter’s box. I don’t what is so offensive about that.

Try to make to many plans because in time they always end up getting screwed up. Goals are nice to have and sometimes you can work your butt off and try your best and never achieve them. I truly hope to God that you do reach your goals. Don’t set them to high and go from there. You get part of it accomplished, then you can go to the next step. I have goals still, I’m 32(soon to be 33) on the 27th, and I am just taking them step by step. With what I can tell, you are very smart, undeterred about what you want to do. You can do it.

I like the odds for tomorrow's game with Tulo and Cargo
Tulo Slugging .515 in 132 ABs vs. right-handed pitchers in the middle-tier since last year.
Cargo Slugging .584 in 101 ABs vs. right-handed pitchers in the middle-tier since last year.
This may work out well for us.

Actually I saw something yesterday
that noted that we were leading the NL in runs scored since the ASG and batting .283. I would have never expected it, but I think with the revival of Fowler and Wiggy and CDI picking it up, we have quite a formidable offense at the moment.
Wow, that's awesome.
Nice catch.

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.
well the braves got uggla for a six-pack
i’m sure someone could pony up a mike’s hard lemonade or something
the only organization of humans responsible for more evil in the universe than the philadelphia phillies is the boston red sox
lets just use our 2012 money for something good and not another wigginton
OMG! Mike's hard lemonade sounds SO GOOD right now.
Forget a 6 pack. Give me a case

Erasure is the key
that is all

I like his intensity. He’s a “gamer”. And wtf… is that bunt singles in two straight starts for him? He handed that “warning” well. He had tons of traffic and got out with a “quality start”.
I hope he can keep it up.
Rockies record when I am in attendance: 6-5
also that attempted sac bunt
where he got the out at 3rd. Good stuff, Esmil.
// they tell me he once played shortstop, no lie.
Rockies record when I am in attendance: 6-5
Also, he got excited when he beat the throw on that bunt that loaded the bases
Excitement is something we can’t buy these days. I like that he’s emotional.
