Arizona Diamondbacks at New York Mets, Jul 31, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
|
|
There are only two ten-game losers in the major-leagues who have an ERA+ better than 100. Both of them play for Arizona: Jon Garland (102) and Doug Davis (120), both with 5-10 records. It's the latter who will take the mound for Arizona this evening in New York, trying to achieve some redemption and get that W-L record back towards a winning one. Though, have to say, with maybe a dozen starts left, the odds of Davis going 7-2 or thereabouts down the stretch seem pretty slim, even if the offense pays off a few of those IOUs they've given him so far.
The radar guns can be forgiven for falling asleep tonight, as our soft-tossing lefty goes up against an even softer-tossing righty, in the shape of former Diamondback, Livan Hernandez. Arizona fans have a special place in their hearts for Livan, most probably for his work in Game 3 of the 2007 NLDS, when he completed the sweep of the Cubs at Wrigley. He has faced Arizona once since then, taking the win against us last June with seven typically Livan-esque innings of one-run ball, scattering seven hits.
Line-up
- Stephen Drew SS
- Gerardo Parra LF
- Justin Upton RF
- Mark Reynolds 3B
- Miguel Montero C
- Ryan Roberts 2B
- Josh Whitesell 1B
- Chris Young CF
- Doug Davis P
Word is that it's raining at Citi Field, so there may be a delay in store for us. The Mets played a double-header yesterday [meaning we will likely not have to face Johan Santana this series], so they probably won't mind too much, but I hope it's not held off too long. Doesn't look too good for an early start...

I don't know why
But I always seem to develop a soft spot for guys who used to pitch for us- Miguel Batista, Livan Hernandez, Claudio Vargas, BK Kim. I’m always kind of glad when I find out that one of the guys I always liked is still itching for someone, somewhere.

I am the same way
though usually with position players for some reason. I do like Miggy, though, he was always a nice guy.
It’s why I went to the Pirates game last week. :)

To a certain degree
I’m the same way with some position players. I will cheer for Craig Counsell for the rest of his career, no matter who he plays for. I think there’s just more pitchers like that for me.

Except for Russ Ortiz
Caught a second of him pitching while at my sister’s house last night (her husband is from Houston and is an Astros & Rockets fan) and then heard this morning he was released after another awful start last night.. He gave up 9 runs in 2.1 innings and is 0-4 in his last 11 starts.

We were about 30% back over towards the right-hand edge of the stage. Pleasantly surprised to find one of our friends, Nick, running the sound for them! The band he’s in might be playing our Fear Film Fest in January…

so that means I have to listen to the away announcers in every away games.
And they ALL tell the same Reynolds story, blah blah strikeouts, blah nblah blah.
I don’t understand this fascination with strikeouts. It’s as if strikeouts are worth two outs or something.
So Mark homers and KEith Hernandez says .. well, no strikeout there … duh

I don't know, Matt Williams
He’s saying that if Mark ‘just misses a ball", he doesn’t hit a home run in Citi Field? According to ESPN, Citi’s got a higher home run rate than Safeco, and I just think of that flailing home run he hit to center there.
On the right swing, even if he isn’t dead on, I think Mark can power a home run out of just about any park in the league.

Wow
From MLBTradeRumors: “Jon Heyman of SI.com reports that the Padres almost dealt Heath Bell and Adrian Gonzalez to the Dodgers for James Loney, Russell Martin, Blake DeWitt, James McDonald and Ivan Dejesus.”
That would have been a hell of a trade, and I’m sure would have left at least one team’s fanbase viciously pissed off. You don’t normally see trades like that in-division, it seems.

I’ve never met someone who has discovered a planet, as all of our Solar System planets were discovered well before any of us were alive, and all of the ones beyond our system are discovered by largely anonymous scientists who I’ll probably never metet.
I was so lucky getting mono. That was like the best diet ever.

I hate this Chili's ad
Because it makes me kinda hungry for ribs. There’s a place I was reading apart over at Tempe Marketplace that sounded pretty good, but it’s sadly all the way across town.
Also, I half expect the Aflack talking farm animals ad to devolve in Animal Farm.
