PrintBlame of the Game: You tell me
And the blame of the game goes to...
Blame of the Game: John Lackey
5 earned runs is 5 earned runs. We'd nail Weaver, Magic, Hokie Joe or Judy for it, the Ace has got to take the medicine from Doctor Blame like anyone else.

YOu cannot ask more of Maicer than to hoit hard line drives
this time they went straight to gloves but he did exactly what he should have been doing, what he is paid to do, what he LIVES to do.

i have a hard time blaming Lackey.........
this time…....because this has been the only time he has not come through really….......he has bailed the O out numerous times…......and the O didnt help him out much…....until he was long gone.

considering how many times he had to put up 0's against teams
(most notably his last start vs dodgers) He gets a pass from me….......

He's only put up a 0 the once though.
The other times it’s always 1 run. I hear you though. I have a hard time blaming Izzy though. That last line shot was freaking clobbered and Rolen just happened to be standing there.

though it does fit lol

no biggie though…..he’s just kept us in more games than not….......

Yeah
But I note that Frankie somehow has two BOTGs despite the fact that he’s only lost us one game (Other was a blown save) and has done his job quite well every other time out. Lackey gave this one up.
~Till the Halo burns out...
good point

While Lackey is most responsible (fangraphs)
Napoli blowing it really sucked… even if he K’s, we have a good shot at winning

leave him there........he is just fine batting 8th.........

Why is Gary batting period.
I mean, sure, clutch single, but christ he’s hard to watch, especially knowing we have Juan on the bench. I notice more butchery in left field today as well.
~Till the Halo burns out...
YES... please please bench GMJ
And you can LITE UP THAT HALO !!!

Naps
was a rally killer late which hurts.. the E’s hurt but he wasnt the only one tonight. i have a hard time blaming lackey for a rare offnight. hard time blaming izzy too its not like he was terrible at the plate he was smacking the ball hard tonight, but much like earlier in the season they’re going right to the defenders
And you can LITE UP THAT HALO !!!
by BigBangRobbDawgg on Jul 5, 2008 9:05 PM PDT reply actions
Izzy was getting unlucky again
Maybe he should give another bat away.
by TheTypingFiend on Jul 5, 2008 9:07 PM PDT up reply actions
i think he did... launched one in the stands his 1st AB
And you can LITE UP THAT HALO !!!
by BigBangRobbDawgg on Jul 5, 2008 9:08 PM PDT up reply actions
Maybe that's the problem
that bat wasn’t giving him line drive outs. The replacement is. He should go find that fan and trade bats.

BOTG: Maicer Izturis
From hero the last game to goat the next. He stranded as many as the Halos had errors.
With our Mendoza Line Twins at catcher, maybe its about time to put catching help on our wish list. 26 for 26 successful stolen bases given up doesn’t help.
You ever feel as if your mind had started to erode?
Maicer was crushing the ball.
Lackey’s our ACE. Like our closer, he does not get to fail. I think anything short of a QS becomes blame territory for him, and tonight was pretty far short, especially a team that has struggle as much with offense as the Jays.
~Till the Halo burns out...
Crushing the ball?
The only thing that did the crushing was his errant bat upside an unexpecting fan’s head. He crushed the ball to an 0 for 4, 4 LOB night.
Big John can share in the dubious award.
You ever feel as if your mind had started to erode?
i say Torii
he’s been flat out horrible recently. he’s almost an automatic out.
Mike Scioscia: He provides to unlike method of your team member.
3 for his last 12
with a double and a homer prior to tonight. Not that bad.
~Till the Halo burns out...
think a bit before that
and weren’t the double and homer last night?
Mike Scioscia: He provides to unlike method of your team member.
2 of those hits came in one game..........
plus .250 is not good for a 4-5 hitter…......

Napoli
Then the angels defense. Probably the other way around, but I guess we have to choose one.
Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.
Naps
I’ve always been, and still am, a huge Napoli fan, but, lately he’s been stinking up the field. It’s unfortunate that we don’t have any decent catchers on a team managed by one of the greatest of all time.
Napoli
I have never seen catchers make more errors throwing the ball than these two catchers we have, it’s almost hard to watch.
Soth is a close second for a questionable lineup card again. Continuing to play lousy veterans like Matthews (a la Steve Finley) instead of giving Rivera a shot. Sure, bring GMJ in for his defense late…but give me a break.
I know Kendrick is great batting later in the lineup, but Izturis isn’t a 3rd spot hitter. PUT KOTCHMAN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t say it anymore…
This is driving me crazy. By the way, I think we just had another throwing error.
Blame was on the defense last night, 4 errors. Geez
Where I am still waiting for Howie to take another base on balls
