PrintThree innings left, and neither pitching staff has exactly impressed tonight. I've a feeling the scoring on this one might not be over yet...

I don't think so
I was told it’s just a Phoenix area thing.

Oh, no, that's the exception
Phoenix and Manchester, that’s what I read.

Well
With an ERA over 9, I suspect he may have pitched him out of the spot.
"He can't re-educate them in camps! He'd have to educate them first."
Not anymore.
Problem with his mechanics. I don’t think he had any minor league options, so they’re forced to use him earlier.

by emilylovesthedbacks on Apr 22, 2009 12:26 AM EDT up reply actions
One plus
regardless of what happens: We’re wearing down the bullpen a bit, and Jorge de la Rosa isn’t exactly known for going deep into ballgames.
This was the game I was least optimistic about
One run down after seven is a damn sight closer than I thought it’d be. Not over yet…

Yes, but

When our offense scores 6 and our starter only gives up 2, there is absolutely NO FREAKING REASON WE SHOULD LOSE THAT GAME.

The way I envision it
He’s standing outside the stadium, holding a boom box over his head that’s blaring “In Your Eyes” by Peter Gabriel.
"He can't re-educate them in camps! He'd have to educate them first."
Of course
With the boom box in his hands, he can’t defend himself, and is, in fact, likely to accidentally drop the boom box on his head when you kick him. Everyone wins. Except Peter Gabriel.

the Padres got like an extra remote for the clubhouse TV when they traded Chris Burke. Maybe we could flip a deal like that.

Saw the end of the game after coming back from seeing my sister. (It was a great surprise btw!) Maaan, Petit does his usual reliable 5-and-3 and the bullpen sucks it up AGAIN??? I expect heads to roll (preferably Rauch’s) by the end of the week/month.
