We need a win and a sweep
Sox are pulling away
We can make due with the WC
In that perspective, the Rays are only 2 back.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
I don't like our chances
ALW is awful and SEA, TEX and LAA are in the mix
You don't like our chances why?
We’re about 10 wins better than each of those teams.

Let's hope you're right kerier, but i'm sure somewhere in a Bronx blog last year the same
was said about the Rays
Damn, that division is too good
Lineup as Longo gets the day off
CF Upton
LF Crawford
DH Burrell
1B Pena
2B Zobrist
SS Bartlett
3B Aybar
RF Kapler
C Navarro
And pitching for his job, Andy Sonnanstine
Rotation: 1. James Shields 2. Matt Garza 3. David Price 4. Jeff Niemann 5. Andy Sonnanstine...... Coming Soon: Scott Kazmir but for who?!
knowing us, he will miss 2 or 3 games
even though he could of played today
Rotation: 1. James Shields 2. Matt Garza 3. David Price 4. Jeff Niemann 5. Andy Sonnanstine...... Coming Soon: Scott Kazmir but for who?!
Maybe its me but this sounds bad for Sonny to me
Manager Joe Maddon said there’s been no decision on the rotation – fitting LHP Scott Kazmir in – but it’s possible there could be some news after the game.
When asked if the performance by tonight’s starter RHP Andy Sonnanstine would be factor, Maddon said, “everything is linked.”
*Maddon said they made the decision to rest Longoria today, but they still don’t believe it’s serious.
*It also appears RHP Chad Bradford may be ahead of schedule in his rehab, as Maddon said there’s a chance he could be here earlier than the initial estimate of Monday; that means he wouldn’t necessarily have to make his scheduled Saturday appearance in Durham, and the veteran reliever’s situation could be complicating the rotation decision.
Rotation: 1. James Shields 2. Matt Garza 3. David Price 4. Jeff Niemann 5. Andy Sonnanstine...... Coming Soon: Scott Kazmir but for who?!
HIckey just told someone a few days ago that he thinks Sonny is pitching better than last year, just making one costly mistake a game.
I wouldn’t read into coach/manager speak too much.

Id rather have Niemann lose his spot becaue I like him as a RP
but I really think its Sonny vs Niemann, I don’t think Price will lose his spot
Rotation: 1. James Shields 2. Matt Garza 3. David Price 4. Jeff Niemann 5. Andy Sonnanstine...... Coming Soon: Scott Kazmir but for who?!
I don't think it matters much.
Sonny has options and is less attractive to other teams. Even with regression on his side, sometimes you lose the numbers game.

Another reason to fire Hickey.
He is apparently blind.
Or he just gives coachspeak, like every other player/manager in the league.
Which is why I don’t understand how people take their public analysis seriously.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 6:30 PM EDT up reply actions
If he actually believes what he's saying
he should be fired immediately. Hopefully, you’re right and its just coachspeak.
He was talking to a member of the media.
Thankfully Hickey/Maddon don’t make the roster decisions. The smart people do.

Please be telling the truth
Maddon said they made the decision to rest Evan Longoria today for precautionary reasons. He said Longoria is available to pinch-hit and he expects the All-Star third baseman will be back in the lineup Friday.

Anyone with Insider care to tell me what Hollinger thinks of the deal?
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 6:26 PM EDT up reply actions
He likes it, it seems.
I mean they didn’t give up much (essentially just C. Lee which I hate), but we’ll see if playing for a contender helps to get VC to care… at all. He may be my least favorite basketball player, though. So two of my three least favorite players on the Tragic. Yippee.
Can't disagree with this:
And what a team it promises to be. Carter is a much better player than Turkoglu, both more deadly on the drive and more potent from outside, and he’s a better defender to boot. The Magic can put out a starting lineup of four All-Stars and Pietrus, and the amazing shooting ability should not only open space for Howard but provide plenty of creases for Carter as well.
I do hate losing Lee though. I guess this means Gortat might be back. Or Hedo still.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 6:36 PM EDT up reply actions
I doubt Hedo is back.
In fact, I hope he isn’t. I imagine he’ll be overpaid by a wide margin. Like Hollinger says in the article, this could attract some mid-level guys that might enjoy the weather, winning, no state-income tax.
I’m OK with the trade, I just liked Lee and hate Carter since he tanked in Toronto. This lineup looks good, though:
PG: Nelson
SG: Carter
SF: Pietrus
PF: Lewis
C: Howard
Bench: Anderson, Gortat, mystery FA guard, Reddick (kill me).
That’s a small starting lineup, but you could bump Pietrus and start Lewis and Anderson to go big which would be a nice change of pace.
What about price's chances of starting again this season?
Dead?

I read an article somewhere (I don't remember where)
that said that if MLB ever got a salary cap it would be even harder to compete with the Yanks and Sox.
The thinking was that the Minor League payroll would not count and neither would what they pay scouts. So, the Yanks/Sox would have all this money that they could not use in payroll so they would sign EVERY top International player and pay way over slot to get a lot of great talent in the draft.

I have been on Sonny's case for the better part of a year, but now, I feel a bit sorry for him. He just does not
have the stuff to survive without G. Maddux type command and control. Shows up at a knife fight with water balloons.
He has fine control. The command has been lost.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 7:20 PM EDT up reply actions
Is this not just semantics?
If he aims for the corner and misses away it’s poor control, if his misses in it’s poor command.
Right?
Usually control is in/out of strikzone while command is inside of the strkezone.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 7:22 PM EDT up reply actions
I can't believe I misspelled strikezone twice in two different ways.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 7:22 PM EDT up reply actions
no worries I mixed up my prepostions, we're not here to talk good
That’s what I thought, but what I said is also true.
And for Sonny, putting a strike right down the middle and getting creamed is proving worse than putting one just off the paint. In the long run both are going to lead to trouble…
What's the definition of control. Throwing it in the right locations? If so, command means basically the same thing.
We are splitting hairs. If saying he has fine control meaning throwing in the right locations, I completely disagree. He does not hit is spots. If he was throwing it to the intended spots, he have a bit more success, but like I have said before, his stuff is just not good enough to survive without hitting his spots. The margin for error is as slim as I have ever seen in a right handed pitcher. Anything not right where he wants it, is very often hit very hard.

Shea was much worse than the Trop
No question. Even pre-renovation.

"Baseball is played on the field, not on a calculator."
But frankly, I also think old Yankees Stadium was worse than the Trop
Take away the “history”, and it was a shitty, shitty stadium. And even the history was manufactured. They stripped the whole damn thing and rebuilt it in 1973. Not like it was really the same stadium Ruth played in, just the same spot.

I guess I ask: does it really look ugly on TV?
You’re never gonna look up and see the sky, but once you get over that you appreciate the lack of humidity and heat and rain delays.
I’ve recently been able to bring Phillies, Mets and Cardinals “fans” to games and they were all pleasantly surprised and didn’t understand why it gets such a bad rap. (of course I do have to remind them that it HAS been renovated a little, and DID used to be a bit worse, but they heard the complaints last year during the playoffs…)

Look at all those walks, oh wait.

Look at that big homer he…oh, wait.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

A month or so ago, if you googled a labradoodle you got the picture to my right...
I though i might as well creat a saying and a picture on the site since ive been here for a couple years under a few different names.

I believe I made the comment
that we were gonna try giving up a ton of runs and losing the first game then come back and win the next two….
certainly glad it’s panning out that way. hope that large lady makes an appearance soon.

I was wondering how he felt
when we answered the Phillies’ first four runs with four of our own in the next 3 outs….
Maybe the guys just like Sonny more?

I thought you can only review homers

Question about Sonny and the pen
If Sonny’s big problem is the one bad inning, or the killer HR which kind of go together, isn’t that more problematic in shorter outings?
Lets not give up on him as a starter until he is a free agent.
I will close my DRB account if he doesn’t improve by the end of the year if he gets a chance.
"What the hell is a Labradoddle?"
by davelrogers on Jun 25, 2009 10:12 PM EDT up reply actions
I agree with that
He’s really a perfect 4th/5th starter type when he’s at his mid-point I think. I’m concerned that if he goes to the ‘pen there will be several games where he gets hit hard in the one or two innings he’s in there and he doesn’t have several innings to bounce back, if that makes any sense.
Oh, he'll be better from this point forward.

The homerun rate is going to regress.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 10:18 PM EDT up reply actions
We're talking about Sonnanstine right?
15% of his fly balls have went for homeruns prior to tonight. That won’t last.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 10:21 PM EDT up reply actions
He will be fine.
But…I am more concerned about the walks
"What the hell is a Labradoddle?"
by davelrogers on Jun 25, 2009 10:24 PM EDT up reply actions
ok...but
We are only talking about 3-5 extra homeruns over a 3 month period, that make some difference, but his K rate and BB rate are heading in the wrong direction, and that is what has to change to see real improvement.
Right.
Although league wide walk rates are up about a quarter per nine. The strikeout rates are concerning though.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 10:26 PM EDT up reply actions
I count on the HRs
the walks kill him though
"What the hell is a Labradoddle?"
by davelrogers on Jun 25, 2009 10:27 PM EDT up reply actions
If he moves to the pen, the K rate goes up, the BB rate remains static, and the HR rate goes down.
by R.J. Anderson on Jun 25, 2009 10:28 PM EDT up reply actions
agreed
I think he is the one that should go to the pen, just think we might see a couple ugly lines along the way…
Give him the leyway you would give price or davis
it takes a year or two. being average in year one is better than a lot of aces could muster
