I'm praying for rain

I’m praying for tidal waves
I wanna watch it go down

I have a flight from 7est to 8:30cst

If this game could be delayed a couple of hours or played tomorrow I will be stoked. If they do play lets see many innings where they throw a ton of pitches. What’s Moyer’s time between pitches btw? I know Garzy takes his time.

by joeybw on Oct 25, 2008 7:31 PM EDT reply actions  

Tonight

Garza has pitched much better at home this year, especially when it comes to giving up home runs. Moyer on the otherhand is a little better on the road. Philadelphia has a hitters ballpark and Garza better be careful with his pitches. I think Moyer is highly underrated and that the Phillies should be slight favorites to win it, not the Rays. I am rooting for the Rays though. Here is what my simulator says the win probabilities for tonight’s game is.

ps – Remember, I put $20 on the Rays at 150:1 to win the W.S. before the season started.

Fox said about 8:30 ish there will be an update

They did an interview with a commish office rep and he said they plan on getting the game in tonight. My prediction is most of the worst stuff has moved through and we should be looking at about a 9:15 first pitch.

by rglass44 on Oct 25, 2008 8:19 PM EDT reply actions  

Maddon said he’s looking for a padded cell for Garza to go bouncing around in while he waits…. so Ii guess this means he’s not in the bullpen warming up.

Besides, there’s no rain to come once the front’s through (so they say) … so not only will they not miss their starts but it’s pretty unlikely they’ll be interrupted once they do.

he would get game 4

but then he would be on 2 days rest for game 7 so maybe 2-3 innings out of the pen in game 7 but thats about all

if there isn’t a rain out, he is going in game 5 for some reason and he would still be on 2 days rest for game 7

Loooks like he has 1 start left

There is no reason to get down on this series. I think the pressure is on Philly to close the deal at home

Question.

Are those signs behind home plate, specifically the one that says Yes Man, digital? As in, not really there, blue screen effect kind of thing.

by Albertrayon on Oct 26, 2008 12:19 AM EDT reply actions  

I knew it, it just looks different.

Any reason why? So they can change it during the game?

by Albertrayon on Oct 26, 2008 12:20 AM EDT up reply actions  

Typical for network broadcasts.

Usually teams sell those ads during local broadcasts, so they actually change in real life. But FOX sells ads for these national telecasts, so they just put up a green screen to save money. All done in the studio instead of having to buy the rotating signs.

Moyer is diving on the ground and making plays like he’s a spry 23 years old or something.

Well

I guess you guys should just pack up and hope to pound Blanton.

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

Sample size warnings for both, but

ERA with Cubs: 7.15
ERA with Phillies: 1.88

He got himself into Lou’s doghouse somehow and hardly ever got to pitch, even when he came back from injury. Cubs dumped in on Philly in a trade and he pitched much better for them. Can get a little walk-happy sometimes.
