Well, at least we don't get to face Roy Oswalt - he'll be starting for the Phillies tomorrow night, having been traded from the Astros. Though that being a bad thing may depend on your views of Tankapalooza 2010. The Pirates have already returned to their normal ways today - losing on the road to Colorado - so we won't be heading for New York in the #2 slot. But, having lost six games in a row, and having been outscored 39-16 over that time, I'm confident Arizona will be able to keep pace. The Phillies haven't lost at home in over three weeks, and the Diamondbacks haven't won on the road a) this month, and b) under Kirk Gibson.
It's the debut of Joe Saunders, so be interesting to see how he does. And, oh look - Justin Upton is back in the line-up, having apparently suffered a bout of Halladayitis yesterday. What are the odds? Limited aboutness early, due to the usual work-related things, we'll see if we can avoid the sweep. Or, from the Tankapalooza POV, complete it.

I guess now is the best time to make my first post here.
GO AZ. I am really rooting for Joe more than anyone was pissed he was traded but still love to see him do good.

I like that he is wearing #34 also. Very classy like always

That is the number Nick Adenhart wore.
He is the pitcher that died last year by the drunk driver if you remember. A couple hours after his Angels debut

Yea it has basically been retired.
At least in the sense no one will be wearing it for the next 10 years probably. They still have the memorial on the wall in the outfield as well and as long as that is there I am sure his number wont be worn.

That was moved after the end of last season
The current and future memorial for him is the Nick Adenhart award, given to the best pitcher of the season.

that that was the case couldn't remember. Forgot about the award though.

Id like to know what it was that he assumed? That he would be worse than Haren or just be horrible?
if that is the case then I am sure he will be proven wrong. Of course this umm bull…after the starter has to shape up to help him.

My grandfather was a diehard Angels fan so I grew up with them as my AL fave and I also like the Twins. The Angels have always been a classy organization and Arte Moreno is a great owner. I like how he’s made things at the ballpark more affordable for fans

Strikeouts + Fly Outs to infielders or catcher + GIDPs

...Napoli?
Even though he’s playing first right now.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 30
He's a DH waiting to happen
…as brutal as he can be with the bat, he’s more brutal behind the plate
I see red people
He's so bad defensively
that his bat can’t make up for it? Wow.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 30
Perhaps not, but the Soth seems the think of it that way...
…he puts a premium on catcher defense above and beyond what is reasonable.
Most of us think there is no excuse for not playing him every single game. But then most of us are sitting in front of the TV rather then managing a baseball team, and if there’s one thing that Scioscia knows about, it’s catching.
I see red people
Yeah,
I heard that. As long as you aren’t historically bad behind the plate, (which I’m not sure if he is or isn’t) you should catch, as long as your bat can negate it. I’m sure at least 20 teams would love to have Napoli.
Leads/ties blown by the Diamondbacks bullpen in '10: 30
They produced some rankings of catcher defense...
…at Beyond the Boxscore last year.
Napoli was dead last in the majors, and it wasn’t even close.
I see red people
And this year,
it’s a D’Backs catcher. /embarrassment

hmm... Never actually seen that stat before.
Stats are nice when getting ann idea about a pitcher and where maybe they fit but remember that isn’t everything and you got to look how they perform against #! pitchers and such. I don’t think there is any way to look up based on pitchers in certain slots and see how they do against them but that would be good.
Believe me I love numbers but it isn’t the be all end all as I am sure you know.

It would be an earned run. The rule is “Would that run have scored if the error had not happened?” But in this case, they gave a stolen base to Ibanez and did not charge an error.

Thing is
Saunders has really struggled this year and that is probably a big reason for him being traded (though I could name a couple other starters id get rid of first). but maybe being in the NL will help him this year. Plus it has to be nice for both Joe and Dan to be playing very close to home.

there is a Heilman fanboy here that claims
the reason Heilman isn’t closing is because he went to Notre Dame and Kirk Gibson is a Michigan guy. So he reluctantly uses Heilman if at all. Pretty funny.

grounded into his second DP in as many ABs, and threw his helmet down as he crossed over first base. The ump tossed him.

Okay, just turned on the TV
and was given an annoyed guy I don’t recognize in the dug out resentfully going through hand motions. Vasquez or Miggy messed up?

At this point,
saying “we won’t give up a home run” is optimistic.

Tough loss
but I was happy to see Hokie Joe pitch a solid game for you. Thanks for having us Halos fans over & I’m sure we’ll check back again the next time the Colonel pitches.
All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine.

lots of understandable frustration
here. and i guess my posts helped not at all. but it is no fun for me to see aaron (and Notre Dame) picked on here, of all places…
Ah, ignore that stuff.
I do. We know they’re just jealous of Notre Dame.

Ignore them, as they aren’t worth it anyway. Besides there are some of us who like Aaron and support him. Aaron is a decent guy and yeah, he’s human. Like anyone else he has his good and bad days. Don’t let the jerks who don’t like him get you down.
