Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
Coming into the season, you might conceivably have predicted that we'd reach the end of May with Barry Zito's wins being the same number as Randy Johnson's losses. However, if you had that number as "one", I'd have been far more impressed. Zito did at least break his duck last time out, with 6.1 innings of one-run ball against Florida, but still has to count as one of the biggest busts of the season [in a year where it seems like everyone in the NL West has their albatross to bear].
Johnson, however, is rounding into form: it took a while, but in his last three starts he has a K:BB ratio of 19:1. Bob Melvin was certainly impressed, saying, "The last two, by far, have been the best, as far as his rhythm, his command, making pitches. He's not thinking about some of the things leading into it any more. He got a little frustrated early on with his mechanics. You could tell. Now he's not thinking about that. Everything is in line; he's just thinking about making pitches."
We certainly need a pick-me-up after the disasters of the first couple of nights on this homestand. The hitters can chip in by scoring more than three - when we asked for a more consistent offense, we didn't mean they'd restrict themselves to a maximum of three runs per night. In the dozen games since the start of the series against Detroit our collective line is: .208/.310/.358; we're averaging just 3.6 runs per game and have been limited to three or less in eight of the twelve. We've lost each of those eight, and won all the others, so I guess that gives us a target. Overall in 2008, we're 1-14 when scoring three or less, but are 22-3 at five or more. Let's get into the latter category tonight.

Burke vs. LHP this year
5-for-33 [.152]
Remind me again why he’s on the roster?

At all of which
We have better alternatives. That he has most ABs this year than Salazar is a traveshamockery.

Sally should be the go to outfielder
and Augie/Tracy should be the go to infielders.
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.

Augie is banged up, Trace has questionable knees, Bam Bam is on the DL and O-Dawg is one misstep away from riding the pine with a bad leg. I think that Burke is a very solid insurance policy.

Every once and a while
but he shouldn’t be our golden ticket, unless you want to end up like Augustus Gloop.
