Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
There is one over-riding question which has to be addressed today, and I'm sure it's one that has been occupying the minds of a lot of people in recent days. Do we go and see Wall-E this weekend or Wanted? Both have their appeal: while the sheen has gone off Pixar for us with their last couple of films [Cars and Ratatouille - the latter which my spell-checker wants to correct to "Unattainable," for some reason], this one is directed by Andrew Stanton, who did the last really good Pixar film, in Finding Nemo.
The reviews have been terrific, but our idea of cinema fun does not include sharing the theater with large numbers of children. That would not be an issue for Wanted, since it's rated R: that's how we like our action movies. And need I say any more about it than:
Meanwhile, in Florida, the Diamondbacks will try to improve their average for this road-trip, by scoring two runs or more in a game. So, lyrical animated fantasy, excessive ultraviolence, or our leadoff hitter and his sub-.300 OBP [be it Byrnes or Drew]. Let me know.

soco's keys to the game
1) I guess I’ll be here
2) Not much else going on
3) Dessert?
Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads.
I voted for Webb (of the W inspired choices)
but Wall-E is going to be playing all summer, so you might as well go see the thing that will have a lower quotient of screaming kids. On the other hand, Wanted will have a higher ratio of neckbeards.
Personally, the lady and I saw Get Smart finally, and I thought it was really good. Funny, not very mean spirited, smart, and Anne Hathaway was great.
Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads.
I voted for Wanted
I’ve read the comic, and it’s an excellent read. Yeah, the movie does take some liberties with the source material. It’s a league of assassins instead of supervillains, and there’s nocostumes. Also Wesley Gibson looks exactly Eminem in the comic, and The Fox(angelina jolie’s character) look just like Halle Berry. Other than those specific beefs with the movie, I think it should still be pretty good.

I think it's probably for the best
that no one in the movie looks like Eminem.
This... 'stuff'? Oh... ok. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don't know, that lumpy red sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just red, it's not carmine, it's not vermilion, it's actually Sedona Red. You're also blithely unaware of the fact that in 2002, Oscar De La Renta did a collection of Sedona Red gowns. And then I think it was Yves St Laurent, wasn't it, who showed Sedona Red military jackets? I think we need a jacket here. And then Sedona Red quickly showed up in the collections of 8 different designers. Then it filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic casual corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that red represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and so it's sort of comical how you think that you've made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you're wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room.

I went off Halle Berry as an action-heroine
After Catwoman.

I don't really think Halle would have been right for the movie
But I do think they should have cast an African-American woman for the part.

Well I usually have other TV on
If the timezone is right, as I can only watch games online I usually have something paused on the TV to watch between innings and during breaks etc
So...time for another drink then?
anyone here live in the West Valley?
I went out for lunch last night around 7pm. That brush fire was pumping out smoke like no tomorrow. Looked like a volcano eruption. and I was viewing it from south Scottsdale, just wondering how it looked from closer up.

I work downtown
And it’s been pretty visible from there since it broke out. Our lead couldn’t make it in on Thursday, because the fire was too close to his house – or so he claimed! :-) That day, the smoke was turning the sun blood-red downtown, and basically blocking out the sky

Even out here, on the 101 in mid Scottsdale
the sun was blood red and everything was cast in orange light when I was coming home. Very eerie.

Yeah, at first, I thought
it was a thunderstorm moving in until I got around the building. One of the more active ones I remember in a while….
There’s another brush fire east of Scottsdale now on the Salt River/Pima nation land.
I was curious if the smoke was affecting anything in the West Valley since I was so far away from the source.

I’m far enough west that the fire is south-east of me. =)
It looks a pretty impressive pillar of smoke. From seeing the amount of smoke there was when it first happened, it looked a lot bigger and a lot closer.
Currently blaming the D-backs struggles on: Bob Melvin.
If you were anymnore west then
you’d be in Palm springs! ;-)

I would like to point out
That I have benched Andrew Miller from my fantasy team this week, so I will not be troubled by any split loyalties this afternoon. However, I must confess that my decision was less influenced by the fact he was playing us, than that he has sucked of late. In fact, had I realized he was due to get a dose of the Diamondbacks, I would likely have kept him around, since Arizona has recently been the cure for whatever ails a pitcher.
I think I'm going to
watch Webb this afternoon (please, God, don’t let that be a mistake) and Wanted tonight. :-)
Even I can admit that Angelina Jolie might be one of the hottest people on the planet.

Anyone see this about Callaspo up to no good again.
Royals place Callaspo on DL, call up Butler
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)—Alberto Callaspo, one day after being arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence, was placed on the disabled list for undisclosed reasons by the Kansas City Royals on Saturday.
The Royals recalled first baseman-designated hitter Billy Butler from Triple-A Omaha to take his place.
Callaspo, a utility infielder who has appeared in 42 games, was arrested early Friday morning and spent about seven hours in jail before being released on a signature bond. The Royals were evasive about what he would do.
"Alberto is going on the disabled list for evaluation and treatment of an undisclosed medical condition," manager Trey Hillman said. He declined to elaborate.
"I’ve already given the statement," he said.
When questioned again, Hillman did say he felt Callaspo, who hit .290 in 100 at-bats with four RBIs, would return.
"Yeah, I think he’ll be back at some point. He’s got a good attitude right now. You can’t have somebody do what he’s going to do without having a good attitude.
"That’s it. That’s it. That’s all I’m saying."
The 22-year-old Butler is one of the Royals’ top prospects. He got off to a hot start but tailed off and was sent down on May 29. He hit .263 with 18 RBIs in 53 games for the Royals.
Butler seemed to regain his stroke at Omaha, hitting .337 with five homers in 101 at-bats.
"A week ago he was hitting close to .400," Hillman said. "I’d say his confidence as far as being able to hit the baseball should be pretty high."
My question is… Does anyone miss this guy? Good Riddance!

OT- Talk about GAS!
WIMBLEDON, England (AP)—One swing from completing her week’s work, Venus Williams toed the baseline, dribbled the ball, gave it a toss and delivered yet another thunderclap serve at sun-kissed Wimbledon.
The ace bounced off the Court 1 backstop as Williams trotted to the net to bid another foe farewell.
The scoreboard said 127 mph, the fastest women’s serve ever recorded at Wimbledon.

This is what it looked like on the wall of my neighbor’s condo next to the meter box this a.m. Out of nowhere all of a sudden there were bees everywhere swarming around and clustering next to the metal box and crawling it and this structure covering some pipes below/next to the meter box. The homeowners assoc. sent out this bee removal guy who put on the suit and everything and then proceeded to take a sledgehammer to where the bees were hiding. Then as the bees tried to escape he sprayed all this stuff in there. A few escaped but not many. He said it looked like they were just starting to make it their home and build a hive.

Upton's approach over the last three or four games

This is part of the reason why I’ve been frustrated that Melvin has sat him the last two games (especially yesterday’s, against Wakefield I can understand it).

Nine outs to get
C’mon Cruz, show us why you are our second-best reliever
[ = by some measure, performance not guaranteed]
This is where I would like to take a second
and give props to Dan Haren for knowing his limits and telling Bob Melvin that he was gassed before the next inning.
I know that it’s good to have guys that want to take the ball and get the complete game, but I think it’s better to have players that are smart and don’t try to play through injuries and exhaustion when it hurts the team.
Webb
but other than that, spot on.

I'm referring to Haren's outing
against the Red Sox.
He had thrown less than a hundred pitches, but they were razor-fine pitches in a close ball game against one of the best lineups in baseball.
Also look at Brad Penny,
it was only after the worst outing of a bad month that he revealed to the team that he was pitching through shoulder pain.
