Noticed that too. Why you’d hit Rivas second is beyond me.

by Charlie on May 14, 2008 7:24 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

On the plus side...

at least it isn’t Nate batting 2nd.
Maybe the move (if not up, then down) will end the mini-kinda-slump-thing he’s in.

Not really a plus side to batting 2nd Rivas...

just a plus side in general.

Maybe he will get some decent pitches hitting in front of Nate

I just hope if Sanchez gets on in the first Rivas doesn’t hit into a double play.

The Braves are taking it to Brett Myers and the Phillies right now… 5-0 in the third, and 3 of those are solo home runs, 2 in the first and 1 in the second. Ironically, he Myers has 5 Ks already.

I follow the Phils, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the Schadenfreude when they get beaten around :P

.500 or bust...

About 88 consistently.

That’s according to the TV, though mlb.com has him hitting 91 a couple of times, but nothing too zippy.

Yeah. He probably needs to throw harder to be successful.

Non-Pirates related question...

If you’re the Phillies, what do you do with underachieving Ryan Howard at this point in the season? They’ve tried sitting him on occasion, but then they keep dragging him into those games to pinch hit, which I think defeats the purpose. Knock him down in the line-up? Fake an injury and send him to “rehab”? Wait it out?

It’s actually starting to mess with his defense a little…

.500 or bust...

Oh come on Bay

You couldn’t really see how Bay approached that ball, but it probably shouldn’t have been a double.

And he decides to walk Pujols here…why the hell didn’t he do it last night?

by DITO on May 14, 2008 9:26 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

What I noticed is that we had a statue playing first base

LaRoche was standing in the same place when Ankiel got to second…as he was when the ball was hit. No backing up the throw…or going back to first on the small chance there was a rundown.

by Charlie on May 14, 2008 9:44 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Hm

Maholm looks really good at times, but gives up four and five runs during his starts too often.

There has to be one or two simple reasons—does he leave fastballs over the middle of the plate too much? Should he throw more changeups? I feel like there has to be some explanation because his stuff seems good enough to me to be a really good pitcher.

by DITO on May 14, 2008 9:45 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

His stuff does seem to have improved a lot, at least in my spotty memory. Now his fastball moves quite a lot and his breaking ball is much tighter than it used to be.

by Charlie on May 14, 2008 9:48 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Exactly

maybe I just don’t really know what I am looking at, but I feel like Maholm is our #2.

by DITO on May 14, 2008 9:49 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Some defense

would be helpful to him. At MOST…it should be 1-0 tonight.

by Thunder on May 14, 2008 9:48 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Great. Glaus plays Rivas about 15 feet into the infield, and Rivas obliges by hitting a weak grounder right to him.

He was like a deer in highlights because he thought he heard Bay or McLouth call him off which didn’t happen. Bixler would have caught that.

I will never understand

why those games are not on television. The majority of people who are home during the day in the summer are retirees and students…what can FSN show in that slot tomorrow that will get more viewers?

Do they often not cover those games because it isn’t worth sending the camera crew and production team and whoever else?

by DITO on May 14, 2008 10:24 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I don't get it either.

The only day games shown on a regular basis is WGN and that’s basically Wrigley didn’t have lights installed til 1988. Make a note Friday’s game won’t be on FSN but may be on WGN.

I like him as a three hitter

but only if we can have a guy with a .350+ OBP leading off (Bay at almost .400) and Sanchez hitting second. Not with Sanchez leading off and random scrub hitting second.

by DITO on May 14, 2008 10:39 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

As soon as Jack Flash comes back

on Tuesday maybe Russell will put him 2nd. Tough call whether to put McLouth back at leadoff with Sanchez batting 3rd or vice versa. McLouth has the pop so 3rd it is I guess.

by Bad Andy on May 14, 2008 10:40 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah

I really really like McLouth as a three hitter, mainly because I think he can continue to slug around .500 all year, but Sanchez leading off scares me. If he doesn’t bat .315, he isn’t going to get on base enough.

by DITO on May 14, 2008 10:44 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs
