Gameday Thread, #126: 8/20 vs. Padres
San Diego Padres at Arizona Diamondbacks, Aug 20, 2008 9:40 PM EDT

Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]
Poor Dan Haren. In almost half of his starts (12 of 25), he's got four runs or less of support from the offense. And tonight looks likely to be another case, since in Peavy's two appearances against us this season, we've managed two runs in fourteen innings, on only seven hits, with fifteen strikeouts. No, it's not going to be easy tonight, but in Dan Haren, we send out a pitcher who is certainly capable, on his day - and that's most of the time - of matching Peavy in zeros.
Haren got back on track last time out, after a couple of rocky outings, with eight innings of two-run ball in Coors Field. He has made three starts against the Padres so far in 2008, going seven innings each time and allowing a total of five earned runs in those 21 innings, with seventeen hits, just two walks, and sixteen K's. Between him and Peavy, If I were you, I wouldn't blink tonight, or you might miss three innings.
A win tonight locks the series down and, with Webb going tomorrow against an unheralded rookie, would also give us a great chance of completing the sweep. I'll be about - tonight, I'm supposed to be on the 'puter, working on the program for the PFFF, but last night I was supposed to be doing a lot more than watching Brandon Lyon implode! So we'll see how that works out...

Of course, those are the pitchers who usually threaten to no-hit us….

Drew back, Young gets a night off.
He has appeared in 124 of 125 games so far. The only one he missed entirely was back on April 20 – he has missed 1.1 innings in CF on May 11, and was pulled for a pinch-hitter in bottom of the 9th on May 28th. He has played every inning since. Seems due for a break!

In contrast Haren’s ERA coming in was 2.96 both at Chase and on the road. Petco is to pitchers what Coors is for hitters: it causes them to be over-rated.

I’m a little bit worried about Peavy’s start tonight. He’s really sad that Maddux is gone. He’s trying to be strong and says he’s happy for him, but deep down he’s still in mourning. I heard Peavy was the reason Maddux left, just sayin’.

Am I avoiding the subject, or am I doing philosophy?

Looking at those numbers,
soco is going to be overjoyed to discover that he’s the Chris Burke of the GDT. Me, I’m just Chris Young.

I guess
That makes Jim the CoJack. Am I the Mark Reynolds?

Late
I am late getting here. But I watched innings 5-9. Apparently I missed all the fun innings.
Basically just came to say thank you Rockies!

You missed
Dunn’s #2 as a Dback. :-(

He’s got 2 home runs in 2 home games. I like those numbers.

Relaxing at home
after getting home from the game. A co-worker gave me his tickets from Section 130, Row 15. He was sitting in a suite with Derrick Hall at a town meeting because his season tickets have had a steep price hike for next season. Nice to see the game up close for once as I usually sit in the upper deck (which I really don’t mind doing actually).
When Haren gave up those 4 runs in the first, I thought well, better we be down 4-0 early rather than late. Then we got those 3 runs in the 1st and Peavy knew we weren’t going to roll over. Great game. Far more exciting than a 2-1 pitchers’ duel would have been.
Off to watch beach volleyball gold medal match for the USA women. I know it is probably over, but I refuse to look at the score and see who won.

Sounds like fun.
Enjoy the VB game.
