I don't typically participate in the gameday threads
But, today is a slow day at work
You're at work right now?
Which part of the world, if I may?

First, Muu?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Even when Dunn goes down swinging
he still just completely changes the ebb and flow of the game.
Obviously, at the end of the game he’s going to have to hit, but just with his batting eye he’s going to change the way that opposing pitchers face our lineup.
Yeah
He’s taken at least 30 pitches all by himself tonight. That’s almost 1/3 of a starting pitcher.
"We...probed them all the way through. They're completely meat." — Terry Bisson
Wow
Young/Reynolds typically don’t see 30 pitches in a span of 2-3 days. =P
Very Dunnish.
2 walks, 2 Ks, and a bloop double that…. should have scored two runs.

Would seem to have
Had a good eye, from what I can tell. Five full counts of 3-2 tonight, I think.
by Jim McLennan on Aug 12, 2008 11:40 PM EDT up reply actions
Sounds like
He’s going to be a good pick up for us.
He walks and hits home runs.
So, even though he strikes out, he’s the anti-Dbacks.

For the most part,
our MO, outside of April, has been…. either strike out, or hit doubles.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
by DbacksSkins on Aug 12, 2008 11:46 PM EDT up reply actions
And when he gets to two strikes
he doesn’t swing at anything like Reynolds and Young do.
He whiffs a ton, but I think he’s only swung at a ball out of the zone once tonight.
Impressive
He’s worked the count to 3 and 2 in 5 different at-bats tonight. I’m just gonna keep saying that until it doesn’t sound so crazy.
"We...probed them all the way through. They're completely meat." — Terry Bisson
He caught that one just now.
Early a ball went over his head and bounced either right in front of the wall or hit the wall and bounced back.
Nothing really to note.
He had a double go over his head and bounce off the base of the wall early on, but in the replay it didn’t look like he would have had a chance anyways.

Dunn
Though two strike outs, he’s been on base 3 times.. Man, that’s great for us!! I am going to like having him. THough i noticed on the other thread it may be Owings gone, but oh well, we needed to make a move, and i really like it.
Too bad Hudson got hurt.
This offense could have been something.
The team that disappoints, the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Still can.

Very true
We are still getting Upton back. He hasn’t shown it yet. But, he is going to be ridiculously good. Maybe the time off will be just what he needed.
Granted,
it might have been pretty awesome, with both Dunn AND Hudson.

Let's what I'm saying, not saying this offense won't be good, just saying it could have been really good.
The team that disappoints, the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Wow
They just mentioned on the radio that Reynolds has 149 k’s on the season….that’s ridiculous.
Not knocking on Reynolds though. I like him.
Reynolds has already set the franchise record for strikeouts.
The team that disappoints, the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Tracy
with his third hit of the night.
Should have been a double, but Tracy thought it was gone, so it ended up being a single.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Tracy seems to make
more than his share of those type of base running blunders.
But at least he’s not Conor Jackson!
Or Justin Upton!
Oh, I hate those dumb young players.

I move that soco be limited to one usage of a clip from Tommy Boy per game.
Am I avoiding the subject, or am I doing philosophy?
But I did
it’s just the same clip. And I realized I still had it on my clipboard, and it fit, and one thing led to another. To make a long story short, that’s why my grandpa loved Chinese food.

She has bought pom-poms for everyone. :-)
And hopes everyone dresses for the 80’s.

Woooh, pomp-oms!
And I was born in the 80s, so I don’t feel the need to dress for it.

I can't stand
comics that have terrible art, so even Dinosaur Comics took a long time for me to enjoy. xkcd is just not for me.

Fair enough
But some of his art is surprisingly great. And I think the writing makes up for the difference with me.
Am I avoiding the subject, or am I doing philosophy?
But if I wanted
good writing without art, I’d read a book or a blog. It’s the same problem I have with recent Penny Arcade, the comics rarely need art anymore.
Knock off the hippie crap, strap on a helmet, and start shooting. This is baseball, Diamondbacks, I want you to storm that beach like it's Normandy!

because after a game a week or so ago Jenny said to carry on with off-topic in the thread, so I guess I just assumed post-game was okay. Either way, it wasn’t a discussion I was going to continue, but just for future reference.

It doesn't seem possible

And it's a tie game
so the Phillies have decided that their best chance to win this game is by leaving their best pitcher on the bench.

And to hit the lead-off batter with a pitch!
