Random Song Lyrics
New York's alright if you like drunks in your doorway
New York's alright if you wanna freeze to death
New York's alright if you wanna get mugged or murdered
New York's alright if you like saxophones

Pull out all the stops as there is a four day break coming up for almost everyone!

Optimistic, let's take the series!
Angels 6.10
NYSkankees 4.9

Good news:
A-Rod is 1 for 12 against Santana lifetime, Damon 2/11 and Posada just 1/6.  
Kotchman is 3/3 against Wang and Figgy is 3/7.

Bad news:
Jeter owns Santana.  5 for 10 with a 2B and 2 HR lifetime, 1.843 OPS.  
Kendrick is 2/8 against Wang, with 3 Ks.

Willits for ROY

by 101halo on Jul 7, 2007 11:30 PM PDT reply actions  

More good news:
Wang is actually most susceptible to being hit on the first pitch, 0-1 or 1-0 counts, with BAA's of .360, .313 and .372 on those counts, respectively.

Bodes well for Halo early count swinging, ha!

As long as they don't make TEN OUTS on the first pitch, they may swing away.

I think I missed something
is it in the rules that we all MUST pick the Angels to win every game.  If so, then that is fair.   But in reality, does everyone here honestly think that the Halos are going to win every game, because by your OPD's you must think they are.  I get jumping on the guy who mostly picks against the Halos, but really....are we really a bunch of homers?

Actually, I Get It....I am just messing with all of you.  Hah!!

I always think....
... that you first see if the pitcher is going to walk every batter in the game, before doing stuff like stealing or swinging at the first pitch. Though now we know the answer.

agreed
And you're right that was definitely the wrong count to go on, given that a fastball near the zone was bound to be coming, giving Posada the best chance to throw him out.

This game is starting to rub me the wrong way
I think I'd rather go sit in the 100 degree weather and watch the Tempe Angels.

I'm Outa Here!

I'm seriously going to Tempe
I'd rather sweat my ass off and watch our rookies then stare at my computer screen and MLB Game Day and watch what is going on.

Now While I'm away let's keep it positive.

As bad as the yankees bully is , we are still in it so long as we quit our first pitch swinging.

Ervin's a machine!
Kinda like that machine that "pitches" 90 mph meatballs at the batting cages.

Leave him in
Make this painful on him, since the game is probably 90% out of reach.  Hopefully some kind of lesson?

Jeff Weaver....

looking  a lot a like.

how many times
is Mota and Gooby going to blame Santana's crap-tastic pitching on "growing pains"?

by Hutch (someone took my name) on Jul 8, 2007 11:27 AM PDT reply actions  

do you think Tori
called that bunt just to say "FU" to the Angels?  being ahead 7-0 and doing a small ball play to sort of mock the Angels style of playing?

by Hutch (someone took my name) on Jul 8, 2007 11:33 AM PDT reply actions  

Torrie
Oh hell yeah.  And an FU to Santana as well.  Santana was 4-0 vs. the Spankees heading into this game.  

by Punk Rock Chris on Jul 8, 2007 11:36 AM PDT up reply actions  

Enough
Fuck Santana.  I've had too much.  He can pull his head out of his ass or go to AAA.
Ervin Santana To AAA! (But only for road games.)

Probably better than a 10-0 beatdown.

i remember watching...
santana's first game...
on the road...
against cleveland...
he gave up a single, a double...
a triple, and a homerun in the same inning...
A SIGN MAYBE?

by younginhalo on Jul 8, 2007 12:09 PM PDT reply actions  

YES network
just showed Weaver warming up in the pen. Would seem odd to bring him into a game like this, although I suppose there aren't many other options

by Matt UK on Jul 8, 2007 12:20 PM PDT reply actions  

It's before the all star break
He wouldn't miss his spot. Lackey or Escobar would start out of the all star break.

a chance for oliver
To continue to show he's better now.  He's been pretty solid recently.

RESULTS
Well, this can be done by quick inspection.
Angels MIN Run Pick: 3 -> No score (0)
Angels MIN Hit Pick: 3, then 7 -> No score (5)
Yankees MAX Run Pick: 11 -> No score (12)
Yankees 12 Hit Pick: 3 people

Honourable mention for Roger Repoz
My son Roger came closest to the Skanks actual runs scored Sunday.  The 11 Skanks MAX Run Pick was by Roger.

3 people x 1 point = 3 points for all of Halos Heavendom.  Is that the lowest score of the season?

by Yetijuice on Jul 8, 2007 10:16 PM PDT reply actions  

Possible.
I think so.
Nothing from week 6+
I don't know about earlier, since tha'ts on my desktop, but we haven't had this low scoring day in ages.
