So, when the Giants play day games, I generally see a lot of fans on the train in the morning.

There’s an old guy I’ve seen at least three times now (including this morning) with another older guy and a younger guy (presumably one of their sons). The interesting thing is that every single time he’s been wearing Oklahoma t-shirt and hat. I’ve decided the only casual clothes he owns are Oklahoma gear.

I don't like the title of this game thread.

Yeah, right around the Winter Meetings is when I get the itch.

Of course, this year that itch could depend on what we DO at those meetings.

Signing Wigginton and trading for Lopez were not particularly exciting moves, but then came the Tulo extension and the DLR signing.

Hopefully something else awesome happens to really get me pumped for ’12.

by Shoemaker on Sep 28, 2011 1:41 PM MDT up reply actions  

Sounds about right

I usually get my offer to renew my ticket package in late November or December. (Last year, I faxed in the renewal a few hours before they announced Tulo’s contract extension. wooo!) About then, I start counting down to the day pitchers and catchers report.

right now I’m so disgusted by this team that I’ll be ok with it for awhile. I’ve never been this disgusted at the end of the year by a team or this ready for it to be over.

…. and yet, I can’t help but watch these last few games. It’s an addiction.

Attn: Drew Pomeranz

If you could throw a no-hitter or a perfect game or something today, it would go a long way towards making the end of this season suck a lot less.

Not saying you have to or anything. But it would be really really cool.

With the Giants, it's a distinct possibility this happens on a nightly basis...

Players take the next step with their approach to the game

Dexter not making so many outs on the basepath, having consistency at the plate.
CarGo not swinging wildly when pitchers throw him junk
Everyone learning to look at the situation, advance runners, score runners from 3rd
What White and Pomeranz can do
Juan Nicasio’s return to the mound
etc

I don’t know if we’ll actually see any of these things next year, but that’s what I want to see

It's great when it actually works

It’s great to be able to listen to the Rockies when traveling or listening to east coast games when riding the train to the stadium. I fondly remember walking around downtown Dallas last year looking for a place to have dinner while listening to the Rockies at Washington and thinking “how cool is this?”

I've got an Evo Shift 4G

It will work fine after a reboot, but it is a memory hog. I won’t be upgrading my phone until after next season, so hopefully they do a bit better with the memory management in the app because I believe the Android version has a memory leak.

Also, I don’t like that the app doesn’t allow you to move it to an sd card.

He practically said as much in the interview Ringolsby did with him in the last two pregame shows

Looking for trades for starting pitching, or veterans with potential upsides, and player development. Unlikely to make a big free agent signing of a SP.

I like how Pacheco held his glove up..

Instead of standinup like some catchers who want the ball up. He didn’t give away his position or block the umpire.

by Charlie77 on Sep 28, 2011 2:47 PM MDT via mobile up reply actions  

Maybe in 2013

He’s a bit rough both at the plate and defensively for any thinking about next year, IMO. A year at AAA would help.

Needs some work on throwing to first, for one

Maybe he should spend some time in the offseason having someone push him around on a merry-go round, then stop suddenly and he throws a baseball to a target. That’d be fun to watch, anyhow.

Assuming the FA market is as unlikely as it seems it will be. I’ve been thinking of him as a utility infielder, but maybe he should be playing more than that.

Got to get in that roll call one more time. 2011 Rockies, you may now go gently into that good night. But winningly, too, I hope.

LaRussa is a whiner, but he's a legend, so I can't get on him too much.

though I guess that’s true about Carpenter.

Regarding Hudson, it just seems like all he does is whine at the umpires about the strike zone when he pitches against the Rockies. Outside of those starts, though, I don’t pay that much attention to him either.

I don't think Kouz would be expensive.

If he comes back, I think it’s with a ST invite, but no guaranteed MLB deal.

Oh.

But they could still not offer arbitration and then sign him to a separate contract, couldn’t they? He just wouldn’t be under control and could sign with a different team if he wanted.

Not enough power to be a corner IF.

No defense at 2B. Unless he gets substantially better miraculously.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:04 PM MDT up reply actions  

Why do you think he has no defense at 2B?

Or at least couldn’t improve enough to be suitable? He’s only played 2B a couple teams this month, but he played 2B in college, so he has some experience.

by holly96 on Sep 28, 2011 4:12 PM MDT up reply actions  

Different argument there.

Transitioning from catcher to 1B/3B is a LOT easier than going from catcher to 2B, for obvious reasons.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:19 PM MDT up reply actions  

Sure, but I'm just giving him the benefit of the doubt.

He at least has experience at 2B, even if it’s the harder position.

by holly96 on Sep 28, 2011 4:21 PM MDT up reply actions  

But he's been catching for so many years.

Very slim chance he can still play 2B like he used to. I’m willing to throw the 2B idea out of the window, to be honest.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:24 PM MDT up reply actions  

I don't really care whether he plays it.

I’m just not ready to count it completely out (not necessarily full time, but at least as a utility guy—though 3B/1B would be more frequent, probably).

by holly96 on Sep 28, 2011 4:26 PM MDT up reply actions  

On second thought, I wouldn't hate to have him at 3B.

Could sacrifice some power at that position because of Tulo.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:06 PM MDT up reply actions  

I think this is the best bet

in his (albeit brief) time there in September he’s been adequate defensively. Not making web gems every night, but getting the job done. If he keeps hitting like he has been (which is a big if) the marginal difference between him and Stewart/Kouz/Wiggy defensively would be worth it.

Time will tell, but it seems he’s earned a shot somewhere.

by RoarFrom112 on Sep 28, 2011 4:09 PM MDT up reply actions  

Yeah.

I mean, if you’re going to play 3B and only hit ~10 HRs a year, you better be hitting over .300 and OBP around .340-.350. Otherwise, he won’t stick there.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:10 PM MDT up reply actions  

Obviously.

I’m just of the opinion that he can sustain that for his career.

Sorry, I meant for next season, with improvement

down the road.

And I don’t think it’s garbage at all given the current quality (or rather, lack thereof) at 3B around the league right now.

by steakman on Sep 28, 2011 4:18 PM MDT up reply actions  

Wiggy has a better OPS than that.

So, not. But with a higher SLG, that’d be good. I don;t see Pacheco doing that though.

by DumbAndNerdy on Sep 28, 2011 4:21 PM MDT up reply actions  

Stewart is an enigma.

That’s why I said it might be the best we’ve got. Stewart could hit for a .400 OPS or an .800 OPS; we have no idea what’s up with him.

by steakman on Sep 28, 2011 4:17 PM MDT up reply actions  

I don't buy this.

Stewart had a horrible, terrible, absolutely shitty season. Everything that could go wrong DID go wrong.

People around here are very big on sample sizes. Look at this.

Stewart’s first 1,282 plate appearances: Averaged ~.790 OPS.

Stewart’s 2011 136 plate appearances: .464 OPS.

Obviously, that second line is a much smaller sample size.

I’m willing to bet.. a good amount.. that Ian Stewart gets back to that .790 range next season.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:22 PM MDT up reply actions  

My only argument with that..

is how long Stewart’s swing is, and now there’s a book on him that he hasn’t adjusted to yet.

by Charlie77 on Sep 28, 2011 4:24 PM MDT up reply actions  

His swing has always been long.

And now he has another year of figuring it out.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:27 PM MDT up reply actions  

I guess that's my thinking...

For whatever reason, his swing took a step back this year and pitchers know how to attack him, and based on his comments in the DP a couple weeks ago, it seems like he doesn’t think he needs to change anything.

by steakman on Sep 28, 2011 4:27 PM MDT up reply actions  

Yep, once everyone knows how to get a batter out..

he’ll keep getting the same stuff until he adapts. He hasn’t adapted yet.

by holly96 on Sep 28, 2011 4:34 PM MDT up reply actions  

I think the thinking is more

that the smaller size is also the more recent sample, and if Stewart’s problems are the result of pitchers adjusting to the flaws in his swing, the more recent sample is going to be the more predictive one until he makes some adjustments…

also, what Holly said…

Pitchers now know how to attack that long swing, and he hasn’t yet adjusted?

Dude, Ian Stewart was attacked the same way in previous years.

Not his entire career..

Some pitchers attacked him that way, others went away and paid for it. Now all the pitchers are going after him in the same manner and he can’t adjust.

There's no way to prove it.

Just look at his career numbers. 2011 is way off base than what he has been doing, and you can’t blame a decrease of .350 OPS on pitchers “figuring him out”. The book on Ian Stewart has been out since 2009. He was mired by inconsistent playing time and injuries.

As long as he gets a full Spring Training and handed the 3B job to begin the season, I firmly believe he will be back. 150 PA in a horrible season is not going to change that.

I’m not worried. he’ll certainly work on his flaws. We’ll hear how he’s “stepped away from home plate another 6 inches” and how he’s “cut his swing down” and blah blah blah. He’ll work on it.

is proof that he will hit well in Petco, San FRan and Coors?

How the heck is that irrelevant?

The ridiculous park effects of CSP is well documented…plus it’s AAA pitching.

by steakman on Sep 28, 2011 4:50 PM MDT up reply actions  

Because.

In context, there was something on the table that hinted that Ian Stewart “lost it”.

I’m not going to say that’s proof Stewart would hit well in SD/SF/COL because that’s a different topic.

@CentralCaliRox

by CentralCaliRox on Sep 28, 2011 4:52 PM MDT up reply actions  

Ian Stewart can "lose it" on the MLB level

and still be well above average at the AAA level. And that’s only magnified by CS park effects.

Everyone knows about the vast gulf between even the highest level of the minors and the majors.

by steakman on Sep 28, 2011 4:54 PM MDT up reply actions  

Just depends on how you define "lose it"

I was referring to it meaning “lose the feel of playing baseball.”

I’m not going to argue semantics though. People are going to hate/distrust Stewart in the offseason, while very few will defend him.

I wish he could.

It’s his sketchy defense that concerns me.

I don’t see the org handing him a starting position though. I think they’ll look elsewhere to get better.

I'm sure that spending a year in the Springs learning to catch is part of what

made his D so atrocious. Just getting opportunities at 2B/3B has got to help immensely.

I think they’ll hand out one large contract and then focus on those “Mark Ellis-type” signings this offseason. It’ll depend on whether that large contract goes to an infielder, outfielder, or starter that determines whether Pacheco has a shot at starting. Personally, I’d like to see Stewart and Pacheco battle it out in ST.

Which enables the pitcher to pitch around the good hitter who's at the plate

if the guy’s fast enough to be stealing bases he has a decent chance of scoring from 1st too.

Because

The most precious assets in baseball are outs and baserunners. Stealing bases tends to waste both at the same time because very few people can do it successfully 87% of the time. I go by the threshold of if you’re not successful 75% of the time you shouldn’t be running.

Stolen bases also fell out of favor

by Northsider1964 on Sep 28, 2011 4:21 PM MDT up reply actions  

There are certainly situations which call for them

And guys like EY2 who have mastered the art.

I just think on the whole, they’re overused and end up doing more harm than good. Even if guys aren’t juiced up and hitting the ball out left and right turning a baserunner into an out or letting a pitcher throw pitcher’s pitches to the 3rd and 4th batter isn’t a good strategy move.

But if your team is idle on the bases

You’re taking a lot of pressure off the pitcher, catcher and defense. It’s not always about piling up steals, but about having several guys in the lineup who are a threat to run.

by Northsider1964 on Sep 28, 2011 4:28 PM MDT up reply actions  

True

Sometimes having a “fast guy” on first is a huge asset because he distracts the pitcher. Once he actually steals 2nd though (or makes an out attempting to), that distraction goes away (particularly with 2 outs). The catch-22 is that you do have to establish yourself as a stolen base threat for this to work.

But if he never, ever steals second

Hussein Bolt could be on first base and he’s not a distraction.

Stolen bases aren’t the cornerstone of a good offense, but they are an important component of a good offense. Like a good sac bunt, they’re an important arrow to have in your quiver when you need them. But you can’t go ten games without even attempting a steal and then say, “ooooh, this is the perfect spot in which the math is on my side.”

ahem

the braves intentionally walked ty wigginton to get to carlos gonzalez with a game on the line.

and one day jason giambi hit 3 home runs in a game.

and one day chris iannetta got tossed out of a ballgame.

That’s FIVE highlights (counting yours too) in 162 games of terrible, terrible baseball.

I actually have a near complete blog post of my favorite Rockies moments this season. I was just holding off until after this game in case I needed to add. Which is kinda sad because two people read my blog, and neither of them follow baseball.

If Pittsburgh wins tonight (and I suppose we want them to) we’ll end up with the same record as the Pirates. The PIRATES!!!

We also want Oakland to win. If they lose, they could tie us at # 10 (or 9 if Pittsburgh wins…)

Ditto

It was also the most disappointing season I’ve seen in the almost three decades I’ve been following pro baseball. Bad teams playing badly is tolerable. Seasons going south due to key injuries happen. This was completely different.

I suspect 2011 will just be a year we all forget rather quickly.
