Having given Mock his first career win as a starter yesterday, we will be trying to avoid presenting Martin with the same thing in the final game of the series, and also the road-trip. While a victorious latter run is guaranteed, it would definitely be nice to avoid the sweep, and go home with a 7-3 record through New York, Pittsburgh and Washington. To ensure that happens, we turn to Petit, who appears to have swapped bodies with Dan Haren of late: the Petit Unit has been shutting down the opposition, and leaving it up to Haren to allow the home-runs.
Can it continue? We would certainly hope so - and we'll also be looking to see if Mark Reynolds can continue his blistering surge since the All-Star break. Yesterday's home-run was his tenth in just a dozen games and 52 at-bats, and he's now on pace to hit 51 homers by the end of the season. With fifty games still left to play after today, he's already tied for fourth on the all-time franchise single-season list, trailing only Troy Glaus (37 in 2005), Jay Bell (38, 1999) and of course, Gonzo (57, 2001). Almost as remarkably, he's fifth on the Diamondbacks career HR list, after Gonzalez, Steve Finlay, Matt Williams and Bell - and could well overtake the last-named by season's end.
Line-up
1. Trent Oeltjen, LF
2. Ryan Roberts, 2B
3. Stephen Drew, SS
4. Mark Reynolds, 3B
5. Chad Tracy, 1B
6. Chris Snyder, C
7. Alex Romero, RF
8. Chris Young, CF
9. Yusmeiro Petit, P
Oeltjen gets another start in LF, and leads off today. Sutton says Parra has a minor leg injury. Roberts back in the lineup, after the birth of baby Hudson. Drew bats 3rd, and Tracy is back in the lineup.
Don't expect me for first pitch, but I'll probably be swinging around after the caffeine kicks in.

Probably
a bad sign for Martin that the Dbacks are already crushing balls deep, even though the 2nd two were outs.

Quick first out.
Question: How the heck is Guzman batting .315 but with only a .333 OBP??

Wow....
Zimmy has a 12 game streak?? Damn…

Zimmy
with a 2 out ground-rule double.
C’mon, Petit. Strand him.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
We'll see
how strongly Petit goes after Donkey Kong.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Too strongly.
HR. 2-1.
There goes Yusmeiro’s scoreless streak.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Adam Dunn again.
The past returns to haunt. He should be in our uniform.
Would be nice.
Dunn in LF, Parra in CF, Upton in RF, however…. we’d have a bit of an issue. Who would we bat cleanup? Mark or Dunn?
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Definitely.
I’d have Dunn between LF and 1st, depends on Connor. Losing Connor makes missing out on Dunn even worse. Dunn and Reynolds would provide protection for each other, 3-4 or possibly 4-5.
Just all around seems like a waste for what we gave up to rent Dunn for a month and half with apparently no thought at all about keeping him. I think that it hurts us in other negotiations as we aren’t taken seriously going after marque players.
We DID
think about keeping him, and wanted to, but didn’t think we’d be able to afford him.
And we were right.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Kind of.
From what Dunn was saying then he made it sound an awful lot like he wanted to stay here and it never got serious after that.
I saw the comments he made on AZcentral today about accepting arbitration and I still think there was a shot.
It can be looked at a lot of ways but if Young didn’t get his deal, I think we’d have Dunn right now.
Signing CY
was the smart move at the time. I still believe that.
I think Dunn wanted the kind of money in an extension that he would have made in arbitration. (And it makes sense for him)
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
That looks
VERY nice.
With Upton injured, I’d probably bat Mark 3rd, though. Dunn engenders more respect among the rest of the majors, so I’d leave him at cleanup.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
I'm guessing
Mark would draw fewer walks while batting 3rd in front of Adam Dunn, though.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Alright, Petit.
Now that you’ve got it outta your system, shut ’em down.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Hmmm....
Dbacks are skying all of these. (Except for Tracy)
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"

Playing people on the east coast
Really messes with my schedule, how inconsiderate of them.
But here? (Until soco drags me to go shopping that is.)

Whoa....

Not many people on. Though soco just came in for baseball time I think?

O rly?
Getting pumped for preseason, eh?
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Well partly
and mainly cos I have no idea how many Bills games I’ll actually get to see this year, so I’m going to take advantage of seeing them even if the game doesn’t count.
You are both wrong, for I, SOCO, am the BIG Anime Fan!!
Good call.
One of the sucky things about following a team out of town. :-(
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Word
and being too cheap to buy the NFL package or go to a sports bar every Sunday.
You are both wrong, for I, SOCO, am the BIG Anime Fan!!
That too.
And following a team that’s not always in contention. (Since, at the end of the season, it’s all the good teams that they show on TV)
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Yep
and the national broadcast games are determined by how well the team did the previous season. Somehow, by some screwy scheduling, I was able to see nearly every game of the Bills last year. It blew my mind.
You are both wrong, for I, SOCO, am the BIG Anime Fan!!
I'm a Lions fan.
I got to see a couple. Occasionally I got to see like two minutes of a game as another ended early.
Aww, the beautiful Anacostia river.

In 07,
when we beat UNC in OT to go to the Final Four. Virtually the entire Georgetown student body ran to the White House to celebrate.
And no, it didn’t really make any sense at the time, either, but we were drunk and excited, and it’s only like 3 miles.
Eventually, the Secret Service dispersed us.
I happened to be in a tuxedo, but that’s another story.

Pretty much.

bit K of Morgan there.
Just one more out, Petit.

Petit was lucky that went foul. That was a pretty loud strike 2.

Dammit!
Don’t pop up, either!
Josh popped up a loud naughty word, too. Should have taken that pitch.

Single, double, popup, weak grounder to the mound, grounder to 2B.
I have to put the most blame on Josh for that inning.

Well,
we knew that batting .400 w/ RISP (against Pittsburgh and New York) was unsustainable, but it didn’t need to all disappear, just like that…

Possibly.

Good afternoon
I turn on the game [having just watched a very good Bollywood remake of The Godfather – mercifully, without songs and dance numbers] and see about the worst possible absolute fail with RISP.
I do not think this game will be troubling me for long.

Another Walk
Opportunity is knocking again. we’ll probably continue to ignore it
"I know a place where life is a game, and Baseball's really real"
Well,
with Reynolds batting .405 since the ASG, and Tracy and Snydes up next, it was probably the smart move.
Personally, I would have thrown Mark a fastball high and slightly out of the zone, because that’s usually how you strike him out.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Low and away
you can get him to swing and miss at that, too, though that one was too obviously a ball.
Things ’Skins has in common with foulpole for 400, please. -- soco
Not as much
as he used to, though. His eye for the low breaking ball or changeup has gotten much better.

And Tracy
continues to have an embarrassingly bad season.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Bad Tracy! No option!
Really, is there any hope of us giving a long-term extension to someone who doesn’t suck over it?
"Win, or die" -- Marquise de Merteuil
I don't
understand how Tracy inexplicably just totally collapsed after 2005.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Yes, but
I can understand a rookie playing over his head, especially in a playoff season, and I think a lot of CY’s steals were a question of CY taking advantage of poor scouting before it caught up with him. I just don’t get how Tracy just went so bad. Tracy was a better hiter in ’05 than CY was in ’07.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"

0-6 w/ RISP today.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Bangs head on table
I know the Nationals have been playing well lately. but between our offense, defense and pitching, all sputtering like a car with sugar in the tank, we’re not exactly forcing them to be all they can be.
How were the errors, by the way? I see it was Oeltjen and Reynolds, but no details.
"Win, or die" -- Marquise de Merteuil
Oeltjen's error
probably should have been on Roberts. I’m not entirely sure why it was charged to TA. Additionally, Tracy wasn’t backing up RyRo. It was a throw back to the IF that bounced and RyRo just missed it.
Reynolds’ error was just on a throw he rushed to first, throwing it away.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Oeltjen was a throw to second
that wasn’t really his fault, it got away from Roberts.
Reynolds was a great grab but a wild throw over Tracy’s head at first. (Definitely his fault.)
Things ’Skins has in common with foulpole for 400, please. -- soco
Thanks for the info
Another exhibit in the ‘Move Reynolds to second’ case, it appears.
"Win, or die" -- Marquise de Merteuil
Or first
I think he does really well there.
Things ’Skins has in common with foulpole for 400, please. -- soco
It's pretty tough
to do badly at first.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Oh it's very doable
I think we’ve seen this year how hard it can be, all the plays that have to be made. Mark makes them look easy, which is one reason why I think he’s so good there.
Things ’Skins has in common with foulpole for 400, please. -- soco
If Mark could actually play a decent second base
He’d be by far the best offensive second basemen in the league… but who the hell do we put at third?

All though Roberts has been great as of late
I doubt he can keep it up for a full season. We’d need someone who can provide at least league average offense at the hot corner. The only guy on the team who could do that would probably be Montero…

by C. Wesley Baier on Aug 9, 2009 3:38 PM EDT up reply actions
That would be interesting
But I don’t know that his throwing would be any better. If he can’t throw from home to 2nd well, he won’t make it from 3rd to 1st.
Things ’Skins has in common with foulpole for 400, please. -- soco
Roberts might work..
If we can find someone to platoon him with against right handed pitching…
Roberts absolutely mashes against lefties(1.019 OPS against), but he’s pretty poor against right handers(.694 OPS)
"When fascism comes to this country, it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross" - Upton Sinclair
by C. Wesley Baier on Aug 9, 2009 3:43 PM EDT up reply actions
I dunno
if he’d be better than Utley. (Who’s already better defensively)
I mean, this year, certainly, yeah. If Mark duplicated this year next year while playing 2B, I’d agree.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"
-Pygalgia
Now that I've looked Utley's stats..
Utley has put up at least a .900 OPS the last 5 seasons. So yeah, if mark puts up another .980 OPS next year at second base, he’d be the best 2b in the league. All though, even with a drop in his OPS, Mark would still be one of the top offensive second basemen in the league.

Leaves with the bases loaded and one out. Someone else has to clean up – hope the Nats prove as awful as us with runners in scoring position…

loads the bases with 1 out.
This is why I made my comment a few days back about not liking Zavada pitching more than 1 inning.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"

...when, of course
He pitched two impeccable ones.
Y’see, Skins: it’s not just what you say that matters, but when you say it…
"Win, or die" -- Marquise de Merteuil
And I stood by it.
Just because a bad decision happens to turn out okay, doesn’t mean it wasn’t a bad decision.
Sorta like anytime Tony Clark got a pinch hit this year. Doesn’t take away from the fact that he shouldn’t have been hitting.
"In the future, I want to be a fossil. Or, at least have my feces be fossilized"

Rosales
seems like he’s pitched better than a 5.04 ERA this season, but that might just be because he’s been good lately.

walks in a run.
