Ugh. Yeah, I know Peavy was injured and missed a month, but he has allowed seven runs in 22 innings since he came back, so it's clear that whatever ailed him isn't a problem at the moment. However, in his last four starts, Doug Davis has allowed seven runs in 25.2 innings, so this one could be a lot closer than you'd have thought at the start of the season. Though if an unknown like Baek can no-hit Arizona until the sixth inning, we might see a perfect game from Peavy tonight. After last night's disappointment, I'm expecting nothing.
It's Native American Appreciation Night at the park, and Gila River Casino are giving out blankets to the first 25,000 in attendance. Yes. In Arizona. In July. I have to think this is some kind of cunning plan to inflict retribution on us palefaces, for when we gave the native Americans blankets. I am therefore staying away, and will be giving anyone at the game a wide berth for a couple of weeks, just in case. :-) It's one of those awkward 5:10 pm starts, so I'm not sure how much I'll be around - it largely depends on our dinner plans.

soco's keys to the game
1) Catch the game, as I haven’t been to able to watch in awhile
2) Dinner
3) Check out Wanted
4) Dessert?
By all means hit at a glacial pace. You know how that thrills me.

Webb gets the start for the ASG
Report: Webb to start All-Star Game
Webb
The New York Post has learned that Brandon Webb will start the All-Star Game for the NL.
Voted in as starters were C Geovany Soto, 1B Lance Berkman, 2B Chase Utley, 3B Chipper Jones, SS Hanley Ramirez, OF Alfonso Soriano, OF Kosuke Fukudome and OF Ken Griffey Jr. Webb is something of a surprising choice to start given his recent struggles, but he’s still as deserving of the honor as anyone. Also likely considered were Edinson Volquez, Ben Sheets and Tim Lincecum. Jul. 5 – 6:03 pm et

I believe I read somehwere (today’s paper maybe) that Owings could start Tues. or Wed., and that if he starts Tues. everyone else would get an extra day’s rest. However, should Owings start Wed., then Webb may start Tues. and then again on July 13, thereby he probably wouldn’t pitch in the All-Star Game should he be selected.

I think that is why he got me into baseball
Cause he wanted to be able to explain something cool to me and not have me go, “Huh?”
I got him to at least read Harry Potter, so by the end I could be like, “WHAT?!” And vent at him.
This Who thing is killing me! Last week I had a friend who is as obsessed at my side and now I am all by myself and no one has seen it. I have explained it to soco but he kind of looks at me like I have 2 heads.

Ice Road Truckers on THC
doesn’t offend me nearly as much as MonsterQuest. That show is complete and utter garbage and its presence on the network is rapidly destroying whatever credibility it still has.
And as bad as those shows are, they’re still better than the god-awful “lost prophecy of Nostradamus” specials that they run out seemingly every year.

But the shows focus on his "prophecy"
which is garbage.
I would describe the latest show, but Variety does it best:
All right, let’s take it as a given that the History Channel wants to shed its stodgy old image, but even so, it’s hard to justify overblown nonsense like this thumbsucker, devoting two hours to a book of dubious provenance that might be linked to the 16th century alleged prophet. Filled with extremely earnest “experts” of peculiar pedigree (including a psychic and the Nostradamus Society of America’s president), this sort of portentous baloney suggests the television apocalypse can’t come soon enough.

I just noticed our stunning lack of experience
In the outfield
Jackson has nine games in LF, Bonifacio zero, at any level, in RF.
Sheesh. Be nice to have an outfield of CarGon, Hairston and he-who-shall-not-be-named about now, wouldn’t it?

Somewhat. Bonifacio played one game there for Tucson, getting two putouts and an assist.

I mentioned something to Shoe on a thread over at the other board and he came up with the following:
Homer Opener 4/7, beat LA 9-3 in front of 49,057
Since then, when there are 40K or more in the house
5/17 vs. Detroit lost 2-3, att. 48,805
6/14 vs Kansas City lost 3-12, att. 44,615
7/4 vs. Sandiego lost 1-5, att. 49,110
June 15 vs. KC just missed the 40K cut…they lost 3-8 in front of 39,125

I thought bats used to be made of hickory because it was such a hard wood.Forgive my British ignorance if that isn’t so.Is some of the problem with the bats no-one can afford to let wood sit round for 10 years to season any more?

It’s pretty sad when I’m happier about the news of the Giants game than I am about the news of the Diamondbacks game.

We won’t be hearing any more from RAMJB tonight.

didn’t think so…
I guess the dodger players saw the scoreboard and panicked when they realized it was their turn in the hot seat.

My feeling about hoping that another team loses,
means that you’re not in the best of positions. But maybe spending a day in 2nd, will wake these guys up, just like last year when they were at a 50-48 record and won 9 straight series.
The talent that is Josh Hamilton.

Team A blows a 5 run lead in the ninth to Team B. Team A wins next two games,
Team B loses next two games.
Team B, your 2008 Arizona Diamondbacks.

edgar will be there from the sounds of it
I hope those two who said we had better options in the minors are right.

I feel like we somehow had about a year’s worth of injuries saved up, and they all hit us in a two week span. =/
