PrintColorado Rockies at Milwaukee Brewers, Jun 10, 2009 7:05 PM CDT
Dave Bush is far too gritty to let a little thing like taking a line drive off the arm keep him from pitching in his scheduled start. So far, his ERA looks pretty and he's striking out more batters than a year ago, but he's given up an awful lot of home runs, and his walk rate has been increasing for each of the past four years. He has managed to strand a lot of runners this year.
Jorge de la Rosa goes for the Rockies. Don't be fooled by the 1-6 record or 5+ ERA, JDLR has really found something in the past two years. He had a 4.06 FIP last year in Colorado in 130 innings, and this season he's thrown 68 with a 3.81 FIP. He's striking out more than a batter per inning (9 per 9) and has the walk rate down to about 4-- those numbers were 7 and 6 when the Brewers gave up on him.
Lineup, featuring a new leadoff hitter and a buried third baseman:
2B Casey McGehee
SS JJ Hardy
LF Ryan Braun
1B Prince Fielder
CF Mike Cameron
RF Corey Hart
C Mike Rivera
3B Bill Hall
P Dave Bush
The bullpen rest report:
- Chris Smith pitched an inning on Wednesday in Nashville (17 pitches) and actually warmed up yesterday.
- Trevor Hoffman pitched an inning on Saturday (11 pitches).
- Carlos Villanueva pitched an inning on Sunday (32 pitches).
- Mark DiFelice pitched 1/3 of an inning on Tuesday (4 pitches).
- Todd Coffey pitched 1/3 of an inning on Tuesday (11 pitches) and 2/3 of an inning on Sunday (6 pitches).
- Mitch Stetter pitched 1 1/3 innings on Tuesday (20 pitches).
- Seth McClung pitched 1 inning on Tuesday (12 pitches).
Game time is 7:05 central. Go Brewers!

And there's the game thread!
Did another mod do something to get it to come up? Bk did it wrong yesterday so it was hidden behind what was supposed to be yesterday’s thread, and it just popped up now at 6:08 instead of 6 like it was supposed to.
I last May, still no more than Nick Neugebauer not.
I "edited" it and published the "changes"
It supposedly was posted at 6 but wasn’t showing up.
Obscure baseball records and more at my blog, Recondite Baseball.
I didn't do it wrong
I had to do the same thing as TheJay to get the draft thread to show up today. Something’s wrong with the SBN scheduling system; things are getting published on the front page in the order they were created, not by the scheduled publish time.
It was a great selection of awesome.
Did you use the gamethread section thing with the green +, though? or did you just make a story?
If you used the green + thing, that’s weird, because it still shows up there. That looks jerkish when I read what I wrote in that first comment now, I wasn’t being mean.
I last May, still no more than Nick Neugebauer not.
Yeah, I saw that
I must have neglected to in my draft haze, but that should have affected the post going up as scheduled.

McGehee batting first
Always love when someone’s put in the first or second spot merely because we don’t want to put anyone else there
I do kinda like having Hart after Cam though
Now if McGehee hits his first homer leading off, I won’t complain
walking braun to get to prince is a bold strategy

I find this year more relaxing for me in general
after the “no-playoffs-in-27-years” elephant is off their back.

i swore i was going to cool it with caring so much about the other teams, and just enjoy the brewers. so far so good! plus, as an added benefit i find myself a lot more optimistic about games in general

i just learned, this week, that the starting pitcher picks the unis. i like that a lot, for some reason.

Mark Rogers went three strong innings today.

now that weeks being surprisingly good is over..i mean, we have leadership and the consistent players, but no spark. on top of that every time gamel starts hitting well he gets put on the bench so hall can strikeout or ground out on wild pitches
Nice
- A. Guzman relieved C. Zambrano
- M. Tejada singled to center
- H. Pence walked, M. Tejada to second
- C. Lee flied out to right center, M. Tejada to third
- L. Berkman intentionally walked, H. Pence to second

Not like there’s a wide sample with a 2-for-7 ledger. Just seems like you need the power when you finally get a runner on. It’s a lefty bat, regardless.

It was a great selection of awesome.
Chipper sold his soul to the Devil
years ago. He came in the guise of a Hooters waitress. Chipper was feeling a little scared of being a little gay that night.
You're moving closer to the murder list with that comment

So, what did I miss?
Other than McClung hitting a guy and giving up that homer, which I heard on the radio. I also see that the Rockies have yet more relievers I’ve never heard of (and if you know me and my interest in pitching, that’s pretty unusual.)
Dinosaurs, booze
the usual

Okay, snark-free now
I’ve got no problem with Dikembe. Really. I’ll agree that this is a baseball blog. Let’s just agree to not agree on some things. Okay DM?
Ugh.
I agree that you misinterpret some of the things I type. You’re making mountains out of mole hills.

Yeah. I don't know you. I don't know
anything EXCEPT what you type. You are entitled to conclude that I am incorrect and that I jump to incorrect conclusions . I’m entitled to take issue with what I think are the meaning of the words you type. Right?
Being honest, and civil here...

I don't want to try to find that thread
but I recall concluding (and you disagreeing) that you typed some words to kirbir that I objected to. I concluded (and you disagreed) that they seemed dismissive of what I thought were reasonable objections that she had to your typed words and photos.
So that means I'm irrationally disrespectful to people based solely on their sex
Got it. That makes tons of sense.

you're jumping several steps past what
I’m typing. I could be completely wrong. I’ve been wrong before. You might well be right. I’m not sure how I can be more clear than that. What I’m typing here is that we are entitled to conclude whatever we want about what the other person is typing. If you conclude that I’m jumping to incorrect conclusions about what you are typing, that’s perfectly okay with me. If I conclude that you are typing words that I perceive as not reflecting any sympathy with kirbir’s perspective on things, I hope that would be okay with you. In other words, I have no problem with you thinking that what I type seems to indicate that I’m…(insert something negative). But I get to do that too. That’s what I mean about agreeing to disagree…about what we are typing. Since we don’t know each other.
The fact of the matter is
That you made assumptions about me based on what? The fact that I questioned whether kirbir was being honest about being offended by something that is really quite vanilla?

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be fake offended at such things
We already know what KLSnow said about the matter, now it’s time to drop it and listen to what he asked, which is to avoid posting a ton of cleavage pictures and instead try links if you must share.
This is the end of this conversation and I would appreciate both of you dropping the matter and just following what KLSnow asked us all to do.

fair enough.
It stopped when you asked.
I speak only for myself, of course.
