Executive decision. The planned non-game Gameday Thread has been postponed until tomorrow. We've got IZW tonight and I completely forgot the laptop, so I won't be able to police it and make sure no-one mentions the baseball. We will therefore hold it over, for Micah or the Petit Unit tomorrow, and tonight's thread will be a normal one - albeit likely just as random. I apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause. Continue to submit topics for discussion in the comments tonight: I'll come up with a list and will then throw them into tomorrow's thread as the need arises.
Still waiting for any word on what roster moves will be made. Someone will need to be brought up to replace Byrnes, but if Owings can't go tomorrow, they might add an extra pitcher for a few days instead, with Petit taking Owings' start. Snyder should be fine, I think, despite his "contusion" - accompanied by some swelling, apparently, though in his shoes, swelling would be the last thing on my mind. Montero usually catches Johnson's starts, so Chris will get likely the night off anyway, so can spend the night applying soothing lotion. :-)
Despite - or perhaps because of - last night's decent showing, runs might be hard to come by. Since April 26, Arizona have scored more than four runs on fourteen occasions. However, in the fourteen games immediately following those, we have averaged only 2.5 runs, and never scored more than four. Be nice if that streak of consistent inconsistency - as it were - came to an end tonight.

Ah weak sauce
I won’t even be around for tomorrow’s game.
By all means hit at a glacial pace. You know how that thrills me.

Connor Robertson called up
As charmer just posted elsewhere. It’s not quite his major-league debut, having pitched two innings with Oakland last year. He’s the forgotten piece in the trade which also brought us Dan Haren. Obviously, he’s a pitcher not an outfielder, so it’s clear the aim is to provide depth in case Owings can’t start tomorrow. He threw 53.2 innings with an ERA of 3.86, which is pretty good for Tucson. K:BB of 50:21, which is okay.

Well, I won't be around tonight to police the thread either,
so this was probably a good call. Since I’ll be at the Sidewinders game, I was hoping to see Robertson pitch, but oh well.

Ugh
Once again Drew leads off giving him more AB’s then Reynolds. Lineup structure has proven to be a very overrated aspect of the game and can get roll of the dice results but you still at least have to have your top four hitters batting in the top 4. Drew is not a top 4 hitter.

Why the f***
does Melvin PERSIST in batting Drew leadoff? Didn’t he learn ANYTHING from batting Augie first last night???
Mark Reynolds: Turning me gay since '07

It seems to me that Melvin is pretty intent in not learning the lessons that are obvious to most of us.

Seriously....
I KNOW that he’s the mad scientist and everything… but what about when the mad scientist’s experiments blow up in his face? Since the end of April, our offense has gone back to being pretty freaking lousy…. and that means that MELVIN should make some changes, too. NOT just the players. He seems to think that he can just plug anyone into the leadoff spot.
Is this MOTY award-induced mania? Or what?

I mean,
can ANYONE figure out any rhyme or reason here, or ANY coherent strategy? Does Drew have a career .450 OBP against Suppan or something??
Mark Reynolds: Turning me gay since '07

Not even.
Only .444.

Well, that at least essplained it last night.
I don’t believe he can have one that high against the rest of the league, though…. and what’s with benching Droo vs. lefties? Doesn’t he actually hit lefties slightly better?
Mark Reynolds: Turning me gay since '07
by DbacksSkins on Jul 2, 2008 1:34 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I could really care less who actually bats leadoff
My big thing is he is giving more AB’s to Drew instead of giving them to more productive hitters like Hudson, Upton, Jackson, Reynolds, and Snyder.
It really is a joke.

Connor Robertson looks even better
When you put him into a neutral park backed by a average defense (which is what DERA calculates) his ERA SHOULD be 2.91 instead of 3.86. Just shows how much of a hitters park Tucson is and how bad the defense behind him has been.

that nutcracker wasn't sweet
Fracture, testicular
a tear of the testicular parenchyma. It is the result of direct blunt injury to the scrotum or straddle injury. Testicular rupture is seen when there are several testicular fractures, associated with a tear in the tunica albuginea. Testicular haematomas and haematocoeles are usually present as well. A testicular fracture usually requires prompt surgical intervention.

Baseless Prediction
Chris Young only had one home run in all of June- my baseless prediction for tonight is that he matches that total in today’s game.

This is my first, last, and only comment tonight.
Randy will not get 300 wins this year and unless Davis goes to the bullpen next year, I don’t want Randy next season. I want the rotation to be Webb, Haren, Owings, Scherzer, Davis.
The talent that is Josh Hamilton.

The really funny part is, SHE didn’t give it to me. She gave it to a bartender in NY, who gave it to one of my dormmates who happened to be a friend of his, who gave it to me because I was the only one who had the cajones to actually call her.
Left her a msg: “Hi Britney, this is Phil, I dunno if you remember but we met a little while back in New York. Anyway, gimme a call back, my # is _. Thanks, bye.”

It's like rugby
but no ball. You start with one person in the center of field with two goal lines on opposite ends. Everyone else starts on one end, and then attempts to run to the other goal line. Meanwhile, the person in the middle, the bulldog, attempts to tackle as many people as he can. Anyone he tackles then joins him in the middle of the field to tackle more people. A lot of fun when your an energetic 14 year old that doesn’t care about injuries, but I couldn’t imagine playing it now.

If it's not Negra Modelo,
it has to be Pacifico.
I have a sentimental soft spot for Sol, though. :-\

Our offense has shown they can hit today. Just string some more hits together.

To be honest
I’m not super disappointed in this loss. Yeah, we lost. We should be a little used to this by now. But! We were down by six runs, and we didn’t give up. We scored six runs. We at least tried to come back, and that’s an improvement.

On the other hand
it’s pretty manly. He fractured a testicle and lived to tell about it (well, so far). If that doesn’t instantly make him the cool dude in a room, I don’t know what does. Well, I could think of a few, but I’m trying to keep this place PG.
