Philadelphia Phillies @ Arizona Diamondbacks

Baseball-Reference.com preview  [opens in new window]

From a pitcher making his first career start, to someone making his 561st. Every night, something different, with your 2008 Arizona Diamondbacks. And let's hope that this evening's encounter is very different from everything that unfolded last night at Chase Field. Basically, we couldn't bat, couldn't pitch, couldn't field, and got steamrollered as the Phillies pounded out seventeen hits, a season-high against us.

Overall, we're actually batting .293 on this home-stand, but in the seven games and 239 at-bats so far, Arizona has only four homers in total, so there is a bit of a power outage in the desert. The top three HR men from 2007 that are still here - Byrnes, Reynolds and Young - have all been held inside the park for the past eight games, with only two extra-base hits over that time between them. Time for them to step it up and start producing again.

Unlikely to be about for this one. It's IZW at The Sets, and the venue got sold last week, so I think the wifi got disconnected as a result. I might be able to watch a bit of the game - unless the cable got disconnected too - but will not be doing any commenting. I wouldn't expect too much of a recap afterwards either!

The Phillies traded Chris Young and Adrian Gonzalez for Adam Eaton.

Typical Philadelphia sports team move.

Today’s lineup:

C. Young cf .242
S. Drew ss .267
E. Byrnes lf .242
C. Jackson 1b .333
J. Upton rf .348
M. Reynolds 3b .237
M. Montero c .409
A. Ojeda 2b .370
R. Johnson p .200

Wolf moves up to the 2 hole and we have Miggy ( RJ’s new catcher?) behind the plate against the RHP Eaton. O-Dawg and his hammy gets a blow as Augie gets the start at 2b.

Those other guys:

S. Victorino cf .243
E. Bruntlett ss .232
C. Utley 1b .362
P. Burrell lf .315
J. Werth rf .258
P. Feliz 3b .222
C. Coste c .304
B. Harman 2b .200
A. Eaton p .000

Bruntlett? Who the heck is that? And Harman takes 2b as Utley moves to 1st? I guess that Howard didn’t want to face The Unit and maybe Utley is a little slower due to J-Up’s hard slide last night?

On a side note,

can we get Chase Utley checked for steroids? 13 HRs? As a 2B??

Seriously, people, I leave you alone for a few days, and this is what you let happen to the team while I’m gone? I’m very disappointed.

Well, I say it’s time to turn back the clock. Or calendar. Tell the offense it is still April, and tell the defense it is 2007. And someone get Prince on the phone, because for the Big Unit, it’s time to pitch like it’s 1999.

I'm actually

almost wondering whether BoMel being forced to DL O-Dawg might be a GOOD thing. It takes the temptation to use a 50% Orlando over a 100% Augie out of his hands.

I was somewhat unimpressed when we saw Kuroda. The first time through the order he was unhittable, the second time he was tough, but the third time through he was merely average.

He is struggling. It’s not just that he’s hitting .248, but it’s an empty .348 with very walks, extra base hits and below average hits.

And why are we comparing Byrnes to Andruw Jones? Try looking up Carlos Quentin’s numbers on Baseball Reference.

Learn it Miggy,

The Arizona Diamondbacks order of fielding progression:

Pitcher gets called off by the Catcher gets called of by the first and third basemen gets called off by the second and shortstop gets called off by the corner outfielders gets called off by the center fielder gets called off by Orlando Hudson.

Miggy and Reynolds

both went after the same pop up. Thankfully, Reynolds came up with it.

Grace was giving instructions about fielding priority and says that the outfielders always have priority on the in between pop ups. I can’t help but wonder, has he actually been watching this team?!?

I can’t remember the last time Hudson ceded a pop-up to Upton. This has resulted in a couple drops this season.

It's all a combination

Except “horrorshow”. As in, this whole homestand has been real horrorshow. I never understood the root of that usage.

Horrorshow

is basically an english approximation of the Russian word for good/excellent.

In Russian the H has more of a guttural sound so the horror part is pronounce more “xarrar”.

Shallow

JUp started but didn’t really attempt to go.

Anybody else worried

that having Augie come up in all of these RISP situations means that our lineup is constructed poorly?

You know, like, maybe it’s not a good idea to have your two best hitters in the four and five spot. Maybe?

Well we got another

on a not-so-hot AB by CY… but hey, a run’s a run.

score it The Unit’s first RBI of the year.

Well, a lead is a lead. Though, after walking the Unit on four straight, how does CY swing at that first pitch?

I was wondering the same thing.

GameDay called it a regular fastball, but it ended up down where a splitter would….

I have to admit,

getting Randy at 2nd is probably the best result I’d want in that situation.
