Young pus-throwers to be more specific.

Just like Ponson, we can’t hit people with 85 MPH heat.

So our only hope is that Sherril will come in in the 8th or 9th, right ?

Oh, why do I care, Garland is not to blame for this

3 runs through 7 innings. That’s pretty good.

That 3rd out was rough. But way to keep us in it.

I hate the way this team faces new pitchers

he’s new. He’s not throwing an exceptional number of strikes. Just stand there and see what he has, and swing at YOUR pitch. He’s a career minor leaguer, not prime-Pedro Martinez. Christ.

by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 5, 2008 8:52 PM PDT   0 recs

He has a HIGH ERA in AAA too

They should be able to absolutely CRUSH him

I actually like this team's chances against prime-Pedro.

They hit heat-throwers pretty well.

Here's my advice for Scioscia

Next time an opposing team calls up a pitcher from the minors, stick some of our own minor leaguers in the lineup!

My advice

send all our hitters to the plate without bats.

by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 5, 2008 8:54 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

He is trying that tonight. Look again at the lineup.

TRUE minor leagues

not major leaguers that SHOULD be sent down.
