Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
There's no place like home... After a 2-7 roadtrip, the Diamondbacks might be glad to get back to Chase, even though their record there of late has been close to the .500 mark. Still, we hardly have seen the home field at all in June: this will be only the eighth game of the month here. At least our players will get familiar again with Phoenix: after the home-stand comes the All-Star break, and we start the second half of the season at Chase too, so nobody - except perhaps Webb and Haren, who may be occupied in New York during the break - needs to go too far.
We dodge something of a bullet in this series, playing four games against the Brewers, but not having to face Ben Sheets. Overall, I think we have the pitching edge in the first and last game, while the visitors do in the middle two: it's therefore very important Davis performs well tonight, and sets the tone for the series. Could be a bit of a pitcher's duel: over the past three starts, Bush has allowed five runs in 21 innings, and Davis four in 20.
The offenses will be key, and in particular, which will be less sucky: Milwaukee and Arizona have both struggled on their recent road-trips: the Brewers have scored 3.5 runs per game in the six games so far, while Arizona averaged only 2.4 per game on their swing from Minnesota through Boston to Florida. The visitors swept Arizona during the first series between the teams in early June, taking all three games by a total of 21-5, so the Diamondbacks need to play an awful lot better to stay in this series.
Will probably be late to this one, since we've got to get replacement tyres put on the Snakepitmobile on the way home from work. Not sure how long that'll take, but I'll be home as soon as we get out of there, and will hopefully find us with a nice lead. Hey, optimism is a good thing, right?

Milwaukee and Arizona have both struggled on their recent road-trips:
I’m glad ours is over…. let them keep struggling for a few days. Would be nice if the team stood up today and stopped being the MA*SH unit for other struggling teams.

Not Bad for a Change of pace
but I don’t understand BoMels fascination with putting bench players at the leadoff spot when they start. Isn’t the leadoff spot supposed to be one of the most important?
the most important spot?
that’s the rumor, but I think bomel is trying to disspell that one…

1-2-3 for Dougie.
So….. howzabout another 10 runs or something?
Mark Reynolds: Turning me gay since '07
Got home
The nice people at Discount Tires said there was still life on our tread yet. So I took Mrs. Snakepit to dinner at My Big Fat Greek Restaurant instead. Going by the first, certainly is not looking like the pitcher’s duel predicted above. Much better for Doug in the second: let’s hope it’s not infectious as far as Bush is concerned.
OMG....
NOOOOOO!!!!! Byrnes is back to using the Outfield!!
Or… is this not a recent development?

Hmmm
Given his last successful steal was May 7th, I’d have been inclined to start with a slightly easier steal of second. And what’s that rule? Never make the first or last out of the inning at third?

Gone quiet in here
I was watching the last inning in the bedroom. Most amused by Grace ribbing on Snyder after that episode of Ow My Balls – in particular, the high-pitched, “I’m not quite ready yet…” Davis falls behind most of the hitters, but no damage done. Be nice for the offense to step up. Anytime they’re ready…
That was really funny!

When you have a lead-off hitter with a decent on-base percentage. He had a decent percentage chance of getting on base. This may seem obvious, but looking at who we’ve had batting leadoff of late, apparently not.

I actually
read a pretty interesting proposal for interleague play….. use the DH in NL parks, and in AL parks, make the pitchers hit.
That way the NL fans get to see the designated hitter, while the AL fans get to watch pitchers try to hit.

Clearly something needs to be done. Burke, Salazar and Conor (playing LF on roller skates) aren’t the answer.

Long-term effect
Conor is having a great year at the plate, the type that lives up to all his hype where every other D-Back 1B wunderkind has failed. Is making him play a position he clearly isn’t suited for, in a pennant race (such as it is) the best decision?

He's no Keith Hernandez, but...

Who can afford to live in an apartment in Scottsdale if they don’t work, or go to school? AND they have super nice cars, so I’m assuming they’re livin’ off mommy and daddy, and all other terrible things I’m going to assume because I really really really really really don’t like them.

On the way home this evening, we drove past a place called “Action Jack’s Furniture.” We wondered what would draw a guy named Action Jack into furniture sales, so we wondered if they were designed for fight scenes- the tables collapse when you throw someone into them, the chairs are set up to break apart when you hit someone over the back, things like that.
