Well...

The mature rational answer is probably because I like the turnaround and the fact that they seem to really enjoy the game. And that my friend got me into them.

The petty answer is cause Brooks Laich and Mike Green are balls of adorable dipped in cute Canadian accents. ;)

I skip it every time because I’m not in the league I could care less about fantasy sports. Anytime one of my co-workers tries to talk to me about their fantasy team I just zone out. That being said, I just scroll on by because it doesn’t have to do with me. I bet if I was in the league though I’d want to read it.

I assume

That Lyon won’t be pitching until the 22nd inning, but why not bring in Pena?

BoMel can’t possibly be thinking that he needs to keep Pena out until a save situation.

Yes, exactly.

And since we’re batting in the top of the innings, it’s relevant.

That's not relevant

it’s stupid.

In a tie game you use your best available pitchers as early as possible. Saving them for the save is just mind-numbingly short-sighted.

You have more room to give pitching with a lead than you do pitching with a tie. Why would you want your less effective pitcher in there?

That's not the problem

seeing as we’re not scoring any runs.

Why does our inability to score runs,

make the bad bullpen management any less bad?

Seasons can be won or lost on the margins. Small negative e.v.s may be inconsequential or it can add up to a loss.

It's not really an issue

seeing as we can’t score runs right now. Who cares about the pitchers because we haven’t scored the runs to win the game.

by DbacksSkins on Apr 26, 2008 8:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Why do you people

keep using small sample-size year-to-date numbers to (try to) prove which players are comparatively better?

Do you honestly believe that Petit is a better pitcher than Pena? Are you really willing to base this decision on the ten innings that Pena has thrown this season?

If he’s a better pitcher than he needs to be your first option out of the bullpen. You use your best pitchers while there’s still a game left to be played.

by dahlian on Apr 26, 2008 8:17 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Because

when a guy’s in his second year in the pros, the results of the current year may be a lot more reliable and predictive than his rookie year. Do I think Petit’s a better option than Peña? No. But based on results thus far, I don’t necessarily think there’s as big a gap as you seem to. Given that, I would say that, since Petit’s our long guy, choosing him to come in an extra innings game was the right idea.

"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."

by DbacksSkins on Apr 26, 2008 8:26 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Exactly,

Petit is the long man. The long man should be the last man out of the bullpen because you know that you’re going to have to ride him into the ground.

You can expect reliever’s performance to degrade over time. It’s overly simplistic, but imagine that inning by inning Pena manages to pitch Good, Fair then quickly drop off the face of the earth. Petit on the other hand is likely to go Fair, Fair, average and then further down from there.

Once you throw your long reliever in there, it’s done. You pretty much have to stick with him until either we lose or get a lead. You have roughly a three or four inning gap where you have to win the game or you’re going to be throwing a gassed long reliever out there to go throw the lineup a second time.

The only logical move is to take those two innings from short reliever NOW, while it’s still relevant, and hope to elude your long man’s inevitable collapse a bit longer.

You wouldn’t do that with your set up

I knew Petit was left out there too long.

The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.

Huh.

Been hiking most of the day, and I come back to this mess. Interesting.

On the plus side, it was less painful just seeing the final score.

Dammit.

How come you got to recap the win, and I have to recap the loss?

I'm just that damn good.

Or that damn lucky, which is supposed to be better than being good anyway.

Okay, I just got home from work. I took a glance through the box score. Was this game as crazy as the box score indicates?

Two questions. 1. Is Owings really hurt? 2. Did we really use Danny Haren as a pinch hitter??

by SongBird on Apr 26, 2008 8:50 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Two answers.

1) He seems to think it’s just an annoying little sprain, nothing too major. No word yet on his next start or anything from what I’ve seen.
2) Yep. Considering the way Diamondbacks starters have handled the bat so far this year, I suppose it’s not too much of a shocker. I’ve been pleasantly surprised with Haren’s ability at the plate after being in the AL, though.

by Azreous on Apr 26, 2008 10:21 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Remember

that Danny Haren DID start his career in the NL, with the Cards.

I'm aware.

Randy Johnson also started his career in the NL. I’ve not really noticed him raking over the years, despite his .250 average to start this season.

Hell, Haren’s hitting below .100 lifetime, including this season. But he still seems to at least be fairly competent at the plate.

by Azreous on Apr 27, 2008 4:10 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Hmm.

Currently in Yahoo’s recap:

“The Padres had leads of 4-0 and 5-2 before Arizona scored in the fifth on a two-run triple by Orlando Hudson and added two more runs in the sixth, including an RBI double by pitcher Micah Owns, for a 6-5 lead.”

by Azreous on Apr 26, 2008 10:20 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

That's a misprint.

Should say “Micah Pwns”.

Evening, folks

Looks like this was an interesting game,, shall we say – Azreous always seems to get the recaps with no shortage of material! Of course, I’d be happier with a 13-inning win, but once you hit extra innings, it’s basically a crap-shoot. Nice to see Micah go 3-for-3, less happy to see him go over his ankle, but it seems (hopefully) not too bad.

My day, meanwhile, was fun. Spoke to a lot of film-makers about screening their films at the Phoenix Fear Film Festival, ate Chinese food in Chinatown, and was very careful to stay out of the Californian water. Mind you, I think that was down near San Diego, and I note that the shark didn’t actually eat the guy. It seems that even sharks have more taste than to bother with a Padres fan. [Yes, I read some of the latest posts over at GLB… Looks like any ceasefire is gone…]

Anyway, about to head off and drink heavily. Look forward to the Azreous recap, and will get tomorrow’s Gameday Thread up in the morning… Thanks!

Azreous is writing this recap? I thought I was….

It’s you – I’ve been confused by the days of the week this entire trip.

And, yes

I see we have all been banned from Gaslamp Ball!

Yup!

Walk, man!! Walk with pride!! GLB has taken their ball and gone home!!!

I just perused that exchange at GLB. Whoa. I know they are a little irritable since their team has been playing badly, but sheesh. I promise to never be that rude to a visiting fan of an opposing team.

Where we we banned from GLB

and why? Do you have to have a Myspace account to join GLB now?

Did I just see that the Dodgers score 10 runs in the first inning against Colorado? And Andruw Jones still didn’t get a hit.

by SongBird on Apr 27, 2008 12:46 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Oh, and one last thing. I hear a rumor that Max Scherzer was called up. Any confirmation?

by SongBird on Apr 27, 2008 1:00 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Not heard anything

I imagine he would be the likely call-up if Micah’s departure necessitated a call-up, but I don’t think/hope this will prove necessary.

by Jim McLennan on Apr 27, 2008 1:20 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Ah, and here we go. Nick Pierco today confirms that Scherzer was indeed called up. Good news though. It looks like it was Petit being sent down, not Micah on the DL.

I have returned

Got to see two of my good friends for the last time before we move, got to dance, got to flirt with a couple of my cute, female friends, got to have pie- the extra is in my fridge for whoever wants to drive up here for it. So, all in all, I can’t feel too broken up about a single loss. Tomorrow, good ladies and sirs, is another day. A day in which the Azz Diamondbacks, our favorite baseball squadron, will play another game. And so it continues.

Also, I don’t seem to have been banned from GLB. Did I do something wrong? Or not wrong enough?

GLB

What happened over there? I couldn’t seem to find the exchange spoken of.

by TwinnerA on Apr 27, 2008 11:03 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

You may have found it...

Here, and just been underwhelmed by the innocuous nature of it all. When “Go put on a purple and teal throwback jersey with no sleeves and get into a car crash please,” doesn’t apparently count as being “a jerkface”, it’s kinda hard to see how anything I wrote merited banning. kishi appears to have dodged the Stalinist purge…for the meantime. ;-)

I always enjoy...

when the mentally declined fail to come up with a suitable response to a valid argument, so instead it’s “you like a certain team so go kill yourself.”

Smell the logical fallacy in the air.

They obviously missed my vote on their “Is Trevor Hoffman done?” poll, where I selected, “I side with the terrorists! I’m against him!”

Well, I guess I’ll lay in wait until I can trigger another set of mass-bannings during the July series.

That caused mass bannings?

Oh the damage we can do, if that’s all it takes. I can’t wait for July now.

Baseball season, when everything becomes right in the world.
