After the lengthy winless streak, Johnson is now making up for lost time, having put together five victories in a row. That's not bad, until you hear that is only the equal fourteenth longest winning run of his career. He has won eight starts in a row or more on seven separate occasions, all the way up to his run from 08/11/95 through 05/02/97, where Johnson won sixteen consecutive starts, with an ERA of 1.62. Be nice if he could make a run at that...
Afternoon game, so I'll keep this brief. Might be about, but probably only be active for lunch...

Hey everyone, I’m new.
I can’t believe it’s so early! Anyways, hopefully Johnson can keep it up, and we can sweep the Pirates, and hope the Cardinals beat up on the Dodgers!! Nice to see CY hitting again!
GOO DBACKS!
Hi there, welcome!!
Welcome to the ‘PIt! Glad to have you, let us know if you have any questions.
It was great to see CY’s home run last night. Hoping for a repeat performance! :)
Welcome to the 'Pit!!
Fellow Snakepitter from Tucson?

Thanks
Thanks guys! This site is amazing, so much work put into it, i love it!! Just trying to get used to it, may take some time!!
And yep, from Tucson!! Go CATS!!! =D
Excellent.
One of these days, we should have our own get-together. Zephon and I have been discussing, on and off, heading to the Auld Dubliner sometime before SnakePitFest.

Dear Josh Byrnes: Please DFA Chris Burke. He can't hit, and probably never will.

You can do that online now, you know
Made it quite a bit simpler to get a new driver’s license for me, since I didn’t know where the nearest DMV was.
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
This is true.
That’s how I got my current ID, and how my sister got hers when she turned 21 a couple months ago.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I don't get it
In California, they take your photo and thumbprint and signature. You can’t do that online… unless it’s just a renewal.
Mine was just an address change
I won’t have to renew my license here for about 35 more years…

Umm...
I don’t have a driver’s license, ‘cuz i can’t drive. I lost my old ID so I need to get a duplicate. For some reason the service az website doesn’t work for me.

I couldn’t renew my ID online though, I went to the DMV finally yesterday to do it.

And we're better!

there’s a nice recap of all the need to know stuff
formerly Seton Hall Snake Pit. The newer simpler version.
I think
he was referring to the comments in real time.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
uh yeah!
no offense but those tend to be ESPN educated fans, therefore they have no clue about teams besides of what ESPN tells them

may not know this already, but I hate ESPN.

hudson
jackson
tracy
reynolds
young
romero
snyder
johnson
hooray! no burke!
strange things are afoot at the circle k
I'm surprised
Young doesn’t get motion sickness from all the bouncin’ he does in the line up

I like this lineup.
A lot.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
burke
lol he is actually starting to hit every so often now… I kind of feel bad for him, no matter what he does he’ll never get the nod from the fans! haha oh well.
Good lineup. I would be kind of tentative to do this since it’s been working so well lately, but what do you guys think about Romero leading off? and push everyone down? Romero gets on base like a lead off hitter, and Drew has been hitting very well.. no? Just a thought.
Romero leadoff
I don’t know, I’d like to see Romero get a few more ABs first. He still feels kind of shiny and new to me.
I want to be in Haren's harem.
No, Burke doesn't hit.
But he does draw walks sometimes. I feel bad for him too.
Anyway, Drew steps up in the leadoff spot somehow, and Romero seems waaay too untested to lead off. To me.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I think this is the best lineup we can field with our current players
order and all.

Well,
Off to work I go. Meeting a vendor this afternoon. My mind will be on the game though.

Alright
My dinner is in the oven, im on the sofa, work is done for the day so lets do this
Oh and possibly win the game too :)
So...time for another drink then?
i've got a dollar that says there is just a brush back
formerly Seton Hall Snake Pit. The newer simpler version.
Oh in other news
I see the Rockies picked up Hernandez V2.0 today
Good move or bad move?
So...time for another drink then?
Dumb move.
As I already pointed out, he’s got a career ERA of 6.50 at Coors.
Then again, the worst moves the Rockies made were the ones they didn’t: holding onto Fuentes and Holliday, for example.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Holliday bad?
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!
What?
He’s a Scott Boras client, with numbers boosted by Coors Field. How can holding onto him when the Rox are well out of contention NOT be a bad move??
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Didn't they
extend him during the offseason, before they realized they wouldn’t be good? What are they supposed to do? “Hey we just came out of our first World Series appearance, let’s ship out one our best players?”
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!
Or do you mean a trade?
Well, maybe they hope that the pieces will fit better next year when everyone’s healthy?
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!
At the trade deadline,
with plenty of teams looking for OFs, (Mets come to mind) they should have held onto him? Are you high??
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
They should
dump ship after one year filled with injuries? Are YOU high?
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!
No.
Instead, they should base their entire future on an aging roster and a fortuitous 20-some game stretch where they lucked their way into the World Series, especially when over halfway through the season, they’re almost certainly out of contention.
Tim, can I get a hit of whatever you have packed in that bong?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I'm not really going to continue this
if you’re going to be confrontational about it.
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!
Well,
I think it was a dumb move to not trade anyone, and I blame Dan O’Dowd.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
But
It’s still the same team that won the NL Pennant, right? And how do you figure that it’s an aging team outside of Helton? We can’t always assume that the cellar teams are nothing but farm teams for the rest of the league like Pittsburgh.
I would’ve traded Fuentes but not Holliday.
Kip Wells?
When Todd Helton is your cleanup hitter, you’re officially an aging team.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
So Helton and that's it?
I’d kill to one of their top offensive performers play here, and they have quite a few doing well. Pitching always has, and probably always will, be the downfall of the Rockies but if they can figure that out they could be a very scary team.

I hear Atkins has been on the trade block.
So, you might get that wish.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Atkins for Burke
think they’d go for it?
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!
I've been trying to get
Holliday for Byrnes this entire season.
Maybe I’ll switch tactics and try to trade Byrnes for Lance Berkman. Houston would probably do it.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
I have to go to work
I’ll try to keep up with the game, but not Snakepitting allowed at work. See you all later.
I like games at this time
Dinner time baseball…yum.
I’ll be having leftovers from dinner for lunch, so it’s pretty similar, I guess. =)
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
Judging by the amount of curry I made
I will be eating leftovers for the foreseeable future. Perhaps it’ll be a lucky curry, and I’ll still be trying to make the last few grains of rice last to preserve our luck in October…
That would have been takeout choice
This is ‘use everything in the fridge’ monstrosity. I think the eggs were an inspired addition though.
Huge fan
of panang curry myself.

Todd walsh
I’m so glad Todd Walsh is doing the pregame and everything during the game… The other guy, i forgot his name, makes me feel so uncomfortable, maybe because he looks so uncomfortable. lol

It gives you options to flag it or reg it or delete it. if you click “actions” again it will collapse the list.
He can't delete it,

Just clicking actions itself doesn’t do anything but open up your options. From there, you can click “Flag” if there’s something offensive, etc., about a comment/post that you think a moderator should look at, or click “Rec” if you think it’s a particularly good post.

Okay good. Thanks! I had a feeling it flagged it. I did it to my own post so i wasn’t to worried if it flagged. lol
It's alright! lol
There are really only three rules:
1. No use of the f-word
2. No offending other posters
3. One photo post per thread [for non-moderators]

1-2-3 for Randy
Excellent start.

What do we know about this pitcher?
Not much, I’m guessing.
This is
his 2nd MLB start, IIRC

Unfortunately,
those are the kinds of pitchers we struggle against. :-( Why can’t we just face Greg Maddux 162 times??

Haren
very Webbish-like in his start, too. Except for the suckiness.

Pirates
I feel bad for them, kind of. Trade away their good players. And did you see how BAD the first pitcher they threw out there, Herrera?? LOL that was hilarious. sucked Arizona only came away with 1 run that inning. lol
It must suck a lot more
to be Houston—trading for LaTroy Hawkins and Randy Wolf, midway through the season? WTF are they thinking??

Afternoon, folks
And welcome to ZonaBacks10! Always good to have a rookie leading off the Gameday Thread! I’m on lunch now, and today I’m sitting at a desk with my back to the rest of the room, including my boss, so I will likely only be actively about for this thirty minutes! :-(

You probably *would* need to duck
Given I’m looking down on the lofty height of maybe 5’7”.
Still, if we have a SnakePit baseball team, you’re playing shortstop.

Softball off-season?
Might be quite possible. The missus and I would certainly be up for that, at some central location.
Maybe because
the McCC posters failed the steroids test?
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.

Or how about, the problem was the Athletics Nation bloggers want the taxpayers to pay for the park, while the McCC ones insisted it be funded privately?

ESPN
I’m guessing Dodger fans are on the conversation board ragging on the attendance. Oh it’s nice to have found this site!!
Amusingly,
there was a comment on either the ESPN Dan Haren extension story or the FoxSports one, and it was a Dodger fan. They said something like, “Haren will probably spend at least 2 of those years recovering from surgeries.”
Idiots.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Then again,
I’m not quite sure what I EXPECTED from the fans that cheered Manny Ramirez striking out.
I assume they confused Dan Haren with Rich Harden.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
Hey, give them a break
It’s not their fault that they only know to cheer when people tell them to cheer! And they don’t want to sit through full games! That’s nine whole innings, plus you want them to actually pay attention? What kind of monster are you?
Not many people know the real reason Christopher Columbus wanted to find America.
I stand corrected.
:-P

The fact that
both the Rays and Fish are in contention clearly disproves this theory.

Isn’t he the pitcher that they got from a trade, was it Boston or New York? Or am i completely wrong?
The Xavier Nady trade
maybe?

Randy Johnson is going back out into the seventh, presumably to “get him the win”.

What?
He’s only allowed 1 run so far.
Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.
He's at 97 pitches

I think we can safely
ignore the pitch count. with Randy on the mound.
With him it’s whether or not he has his stuff, and after the blip in sixth, he sure returned to form in the seventh.

I just checked out
the Pirates site on SBN and man it is depressing. The have a perfecto going and they only have 16% of our comment total. They have one of the two or three best ballparks in baseball and a great history, but the org can’t help the team out and field a more competitive team.

Is that the same
as Dodgers fans talking about our attendance?
And....

I just wish they would have better management. I wasn’t being critical of the city, fanbase or the team itself. I do apologize if that was misconstrued.

that I understand the logic of bringing in Qualls to get out of a runners one second and third jam and then bringing Cruz in to pitch a clean frame in the ninth.
I’m the biggest Qualls fanboy here, but even I admit that the guy has problems working from the stretch.
