When does Chavez arrive and Osoria depart

Osoria have given up at least one earned run in 50% of his appearances.

Dejan says it won't happen

because the pen needs a sinkerballer. I happen to think he is wrong about that, and they can’t keep Osoria too much longer.

Osoria just takes the mound and throws—no mechanics, doesn’t seem to know or care where the ball is going. When he is effective, he is wildly effective, and that isn’t something that impresses me too much.

This is silly,

mainly because I would have never called for it before the season started, but how much different would the season be (particularly the win-loss record) if Pearce had every start at first this season?

He hasn’t hit all that well in AAA so far, and obviously this wouldn’t address the pitching woes, but it just seems LaRoche has failed in a lot of key situations so far.

Deja vu

Down 2 after 1 again.

I wonder how few pitches we can make this guy throw

Current pace

99 pitches and a perfect game.

LaDouche K's!

Now there’s a shocker.

Nice double play. That bunt looked like something we would normally lay down.

.500 or bust...

these announcers are morons

They called Maholm “Pat” all day yesterday and today we have “Snelling” pitching.

They also referred to Bautista as one of the NLs biggest hitting threats yesterday XD.

.500 or bust...

A day late

with the home run, Adam. Might have come in handy yesterday.

LaRoche ate his Wheaties today.

.500 or bust...

ahahahahah

“and their most dangerous batter at the plate”

Like saying Shelton is the next Babe Ruth. A streak does not a career make.

What’s up with us leaving Snell in there for this inning? Terrible idea!

.500 or bust...

by phillybucco on May 4, 2008 3:38 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Also...

Pens up 2-0 in the second, if you’re a fan…

.500 or bust...

by phillybucco on May 4, 2008 3:39 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Hopefully Morgan leads off and gets on

Would love to see Nate hitting with someone on base to start off the 8th

by DITO on May 4, 2008 3:44 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Step one...

complete!

.500 or bust...

Nate is hitting .300+

and he is one of the most unlucky hitters I have seen this year. I don’t know how many times he has hit the ball on the nose right at outfielders.

And the final out last night was a nice shot up the middle, but the Nats have had him covered pretty well by the shift.

7th inning

killed us
