Tankapalooza 2010 Standings
| Rk | Tm | W | L | W-L% | GB |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Orioles | 31 | 68 | .313 | - |
| 2 | Pirates | 34 | 64 | .347 | 3.5 |
| 3 | D-backs | 37 | 62 | .374 | 6 |
| 4 | Mariners | 39 | 61 | .390 | 7.5 |
| 5 | Astros | 40 | 59 | .404 | 9 |
| 6 | Indians | 41 | 58 | .414 | 10 |
Four straight losses against the Giants means the return of the Tankapalooza standings, where Arizona remains in third-place, 2.5 games behind the Pirates - however, their 3-7 record over the past ten games is the worst of any team in the bottom six. The Diamondbacks will be banking on their awful 13-33 road record to see them through this trip, but the Pirates (13-35) and Orioles (11-38) also start the week on the road, so there's no room for slackage, even though the trading of Dan Haren will certainly give Arizona a boost down the stretch.

Jack Magruder Tweets that the team are "getting most play now on 2B Johnson, looking at career year and available. "Have to be overwhelmed" to move RHP Jackson, source says." And, incidentally, bonus points to Jack for Tweets that are grammatically sound and properly-capitalized - looking like they are by a professional writer, rather than text messages sent from a hyperactive and distracted teenager. I saw enough of those over the weekend, thank you very much </grumpyoldman>
The hundredth game of the season. My, how time flies when you're enjoying yourself barely paying attention. At least the east-coast start times mean the next few contests will (hopefully) not drag too long into the night, and I'll be able to get the recaps up early enough, that the evening won't seem wasted. Yeah: it's pretty terrible when D-backs games now seem more an irritating chore than anything else, but it's an inevitable result of a season that has gone more or less relentlessly downhill since the first week, and doesn't look likely to get better anytime soon. Still, we keep showing up, because that's what we do. This isn't a bad season. Now, 2004: that was a bad season...
That whole pesky wage-slavery thing means I won't be about until later on in this game. Have fun without me!

Okay
NOW we can make a decision as to whether or not that trade worked from THIS game
Bad doormat! No stock options!
Come on, dude
We have to wait until at least tomorrow.
"It's a fez. I'm wearing a fez now. Fezes are cool."
so, to trade jackson
they need to be overwhelmed? Is this in the same sense as the Haren trade? If so, I won’t be holding my breath for much of a return.

"Be more concerned w/ character than reputation. Character is what you are, reputation is what people think you are." ~ John Wooden
From Twitter
Todd Walsh says Jerry DiPoto is going to be in the booth in the third, and Waslh says we’ll get “some clarity on why Haren is gone.”
I think most of our questions aren’t why is Haren gone, but why didn’t we get more back…
"It's a fez. I'm wearing a fez now. Fezes are cool."
Prediction:
“We got winners in return. I think Joe Saunders is behind only Halladay in wins the last few years. He won like 60% of his games. Corbin leads the minors in wins.”
I guarantee there will be some facepalming in the third inning.

Linked in SnakeBytes, for what he thinks DiPoto actually meant – somewhat comforting.

But then,
what was the justification for the trade?
If wins matter to him, then we can just assume he’s dumb.
But if wins don’t matter to him, then why did he make the trade?
And why would he also cite Corbin’s wins?

You already have the answers Jim was attempting to provide. Congratulations!

In Denver, Huston Street just got hit by a line drive during pre-game warmups. Didn’t hear how badly he was hurt, but when I looked up there was an ambulance on the field, and they’re taking him to the Emergency Room.

Street was apparently struck in the groin area by an Ian Stewart liner while playing catch in right field. Rockies trainer Keith Dugger told MLB.com Street fainted “two or three times” from the pain. According to the Denver Post, Street initially went down after being struck by the ball, then tried to get up but fainted from the pain. “I think his body kind of went into shock,” said Dugger. “The thing that was kind of alarming is he had ringing in his ears. Sometimes it’s just a sign of shock.”

jerry dipoto will be the general manager next season.
he has more than 7 years of baseball scouting experience. he’s been a winner for the red sox and everything you see on the field for the rockies is because of him. try believing in him and what he sees.

what I meant by “an actual GM” was “not ownership”.

you have to be able to see major-league potential right?

Right.
And those players could be major leaguers someday… but none that come close to replacing Haren.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 28
of course
no one can replace haren. but you get a good #2/3 in skaggs, and maybe a #4/5 in crobin and a fringe bullpen arm plus all the money you save from haren’s contract. you know this team won’t be spending 100 million anymore.
Haiku are simple,
But they often don't make sense,

A #2/3, a BOR starter, and a fringe bullpen arm
is not worth an underpaid ace.
Especially when two big pieces are far away from the majors, and thus, not sure things. While Haren is.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 28
oh and i forgot the winning machine saunders.
haren wasn’t pitching like an ace for us anyways. i know he was unlucky, but aces overcome that.

But they often don't make sense,

And, barring injury,
he will overcome that. He will be back to ace status next year. I have no doubt about that.

and we'll still be half a bullpen and 2 SPs

You think we can contend in 2012/2013
with a potential #2 coming off injury (Parker), a potential #3 (Skaggs), and two #4’s (IPK and Enright)?
Also, notice I said potential. Players don’t usually reach their MLB settings right when they reach the majors.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 29
somewhat
but things will have changed by then. Trades will be made, players will be gone, high draft picks will be spent. The next two years won’t be in a vacuum.
Lets say they are though, I think you’re greatly undervaluing some of those players for the sake of your argument.

I sure as hell know
that trading Dan Haren for Joe Saunders is a bad idea…
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 28
no one traded Dan Haren for Joe Saunders
Saunders was taken on because we need to fill that spot in the rotation for now and it is a way of “paying” for part of Haren’s contract by taking on the increasing salary of Saunders.
You make it sound like we traded Haren away so we can replace him with the better Joe Saunders. Saunders is a filler not a centerpiece.
