Gameday Thread, #44: 5/18 vs. Tigers
Detroit Tigers at Arizona Diamondbacks, May 18, 2008 4:10 PM EDT

Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
Time for the offense to wake up, and start tattooing these Detroit pitchers, like the American League has been doing. Robertson has managed one quality start all season, and our lineup has also tended to enjoy facing left-handed pitching so far. On the other hand, Johnson has only managed one quality start for us either this year; he's been up and down, and also more than a little prone to giving up the long-ball. He tends to either walk people or give up a good number of hits, which is a worrying combination.
I will be around early, but we've got a friend coming over for dinner and web-site advice, so I may not be commenting too much later on. It'd certainly be nice for us to score a good number of runs early on, and push Johnson towards career win #288. After a couple of days off, and with no game tomorrow, we should be able to use A-bullpen members like Lyon and Qualls once again: Cruz and Medders may not be available.

1-2-3 go the Diamondbacks, with two K’s. On the basis of that, doesn’t look like the offense are going to do any better today…

Reynolds hasn’t yet earned the Byrnes treatment, since he’s young and making hardly anything, but he REALLY needs to work with Rick Schu.

And, it appears
Byrnes isn’t the same guy on the basepaths as of last year. :-( Four stolen-bases and three caught stealing: that’s well short of the necessary success rate to break even.

So if Bam Bam is safe then are they going to give Burke anything to hit? Probably not, so then you burn through RJ in the batting order.

I think there's a pretty big difference
between playing heady, fundamentally sound baseball in little leagues and playing it in the major leagues.
It’s not the pressure of the big stage. It’s that the game is so much faster. You have less time to react and even the “routine” plays have to be made extremely quickly and efficiently. What seems easy to us, may not be when you’re running full out trying to go first to home knowing that it’s major leaguers looking to get you out – not the guys on your local softball league.

What drama!
Who cares? Since so much of the “disagreement” is really nasty and personal, it’s probably a good idea to ignore it. When people can’t let something go & keep pushing at it over and over, sometimes the bigger person makes a decision to just move the fuck on. When two people join forces to continually bag on one person, it’s downright nauseating. C’mon, guys. Grow up. It’s a game. Disagreements don’t have to be so nasty and full of snide comments. That’s the major reason I’ve quit coming around here lately.

I kind of view this site as a pub that I go to to enjoy the game with other D-back fans. If there are a few “regulars” that go to the pub and I don’t get pleasure out of listening to them while I’m there, then I will just avoid them. If the entire pub turns into that type of “fan” then, eventually, I have to find another pub.
Don’t let the ones that turn you off from coming to the pub unless it gets to be too much. Just iggy the hand full that make it less than pleasurable. Come on in, have a beer and enjoy the game!

No, disagreements do NOT have to be nasty. I agree.
Although I’m not entirely sure which disagreement you’re referring to as being “nasty”.
Foulpole is entirely within his rights to ignore whoever he wants, of course. The problem is, he’s being a bit childish, in that he’s only ignoring those who vigorously disagree with him the most that resigning Eric Byrnes was a mistake, Upton is not a terrible defender, most baseball people still expected Carlos Quentin to be a big star even after last year, Edgar Gonzalez is a very versatile and useful member of the roster, etc. He’s now ignoring myself, dahlian, and admittedly shoewizard, even. He’s probably ignoring other people, too, but I haven’t specifically noticed.
So, I asked him a completely serious and legitimate question, because he’s continually making statements and ignoring anybody who doesn’t agree with him 100%. The point of a baseball site like this is give-and-take, discussion, cheering our favorite team together, debating personnel decisions, etc. If foulpole isn’t interested in talking to people who disagree with his POV, then he probably shouldn’t be discussing baseball in a public forum. If he’s not prepared to defend his statements, he shouldn’t be making them in the first place. But to decide to come here, post FanPosts, make comments, and just ignore anyone who doesn’t agree with him—not only WHEN they disagree, but continually, and to make a show of it, is AT THE VERY LEAST, poor manners. Apparently, foulpole is trying to create his own personal Gaslamp Ball, only by censoring dissenters passively rather than actively.
To hijack his analogy a bit, if he were to walk into a pub, and some of the regulars, with whom he may have disagreed in the past, were friendly with him? And they approached him to say hello, and he were to ignore them? (Being a regular himself, which he is) You’d better believe that they’d take it personally and get annoyed. It’s very impolite.
That’s my opinion, anyway. That’s why I’m annoyed at him, and that’s why I asked him the question. A baseball “community” doesn’t work, and cannot exist, when some members specifically try to tell everyone else their opinion, without even acknowledging a response.
Take it as you will.

At this rate
Lyon is on-pace for a career-high number of innings. I’d rather those innings didn’t come in situations where we had perfectly-credible alternatives.
by Jim McLennan on May 18, 2008 6:45 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
In that situation,
I think it was either Lyon or Edgar.
Qualls, Pena and Lyon have all been used more than Lyon, using Slaten when Cabrera is the number one batter is stupid and I don’t think any of us want to see Medders’ latest regression to the mean. As I said, the Scherzer bullpen experience can’t come soon enough.
by dahlian on May 18, 2008 6:47 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Actually,
Cruz doesn’t have more innings than Lyon, but 2 1/3 IP in the last two games means he should have been unavailable.
Normally, I think that’s a good situation to use Cruz, but tonight was an exception. It’s better bullpen management than Bud Black, that’s for sure – his “closer” has only thrown 12 2/3 IP this season.
by dahlian on May 18, 2008 6:51 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Edgar works for me
He was warming up alongside Lyon, and hadn’t pitched at all in a week – that was Lyon’s fourh appearance since then. I’d expect both Qualls and Pena to pitch more: they each pitched over eighty innings last year.
Basically, however, we just need the starters to go deeper into games, and the rest of the pitching will take care of itself. Replacing Max Scherzer with Doug Davis will be a big help there.
by Jim McLennan on May 18, 2008 6:55 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
They were both up and warm? So, if we throw Ed-it’s-Gon out there and he struggles then we use both of them? Sometimes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Good game.
Caught a lot of it from a bowling alley, so I got to see Johnson looking solid and some offense (albeit late-appearing) showing up as well. Good stuff.
