Arizona Diamondbacks at New York Mets, Jun 11, 2008 7:10 PM EDT

Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
The Diamondbacks will no doubt arrive at Shea Stadium this afternoon, whistling the theme from The Great Escape after yesterday's victory. We'll see how much of an impact that has on both sides - positive in our case, but sending the Mets to their fifth straight loss. Not quite what they wanted before facing the frontrunner for the NL Cy Young, I suspect.
That said, when they encountered Webb back in May, they didn't do too badly: four runs in six innings is a poor outing by Brandon's standards. He was one out away from a quality start, but allowed a three-run homer to Beltran in the sixth. However, we pounded out fifteen hits and scored ten runs - five of those coming off last night's whipping boy, Duaner Sanchez [He has now allowed eight runs in two innings of work, with D-backs hitters 9-for-15 against him], on the way to a 10-4 win. Pelfrey struggled through five, allowing nine hits and four walks, and taking the loss.
As TwinnerA pointed out, word is that Conor Jackson will be playing in left, with Tracy at first. It's an interesting idea, clearly aimed at getting as many of the best hitters in the lineup, without having to rely on the likes of Romero and Burke. As Nick Piecoro points out, doing it with Webb on the mound makes sense: in each of his last two starts, the left-fielder saw just two balls the entire game. So we hope Jackson is similarly untroubled this afternoon. Given CoJack's lack of experience in the outfield compared to Tracy (18 career innings vs. 417.2), I think the conclusion is that Tracy's surgically-repaired knee is not up to the running and/or sudden turns.

He has a called strike call which I described as midway between a trumpeting elephant and the horn on a Model T Ford. He won’t be at home-plate tonight though.

Jackson in left,,,
Personally, i’d have put Reynolds in left, considering out of him, tracy, and Jackson, he’s played left most recently(i believe he played a bit of left in the minors last year before he was called up, as well as spending time there the year before). This should be interesting.

Today's lineup
- C. Young cf .236
- S. Drew ss .268
- O. Hudson 2b .292
- C. Jackson lf .305
- C. Tracy 1b .219
- M. Reynolds 3b .259
- C. Snyder c .255
- J. Salazar rf .233
- B. Webb p .143
Yep. Jackson in left, and Upton gets another day off with Salazar covering that corner.

Wow. CJ in LF? I can understand wanting to get his bat in the lineup against a LHP but LF? Let’s hope that he’s not too busy out there.

I should add though,
that I like this out of the box thinking.
Tracy and CJ are quite probably our two best pure hitters – it’s nice to have them both in the lineup rather than Alex Romero.

I would give Webby 66% of the blame on a poor throw at the base runners feet and 33% to Trace. Trace could have come up with that but he had to get his hand/arm out of the way pretty quick or he’s got a real mess getting tangled up with the runners legs.

You're complimenting that play?!?
To use your terminology, that play was “bush”. Tracy had two choices, turn the double play or look the runner back to third and take the out at first.
He elected to do neither. There’s no possible way that you would have this same response had Conor made the same play.

No doubt
But certain posters have a huge double-standard in these matters. Witness the ripping given to Jackson yesterday, from certain quarters, for not turning a double-play. Tracy fails to turn the double-play here and gets complimented for a “nice throw” to second, by the same person..

That’s the funny thing about swearing in your non-native tongue. It doesn’t matter how fluent you are, you can never have the same reaction to a swear word in another language as you do in your own.
