just bench him…send him back to Indy…don’t really care what. He walks faaaar too many people.

is that

his changeup coming in at 84 on gameday?

Why not

put Nate back at leadoff & have Nyjer slap him over to 2nd? Plus, Nyjer would beat out most DP balls…

Well, this stinks.

by Charlie on Aug 29, 2008 7:25 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

it only took Gorzo

3 batters to settle down. Unfortunately, they all scored.

Gah.

a pitcher

who walks few vs. a team that doesn’t accept a walk, and only has one person hitting for “good” average. Don’t expect a lot of baserunners for us folks

Alright, let’s go Pirates.

that didn’t end well.

I want to see it.
At least not until the next depressing game (aka tomorrow)

Pretty amazing that Gorzelanny’s still in, given the way this began.

Like I said above,

he settled down after the first 3 batters. all of whom scored

Going into this inning, he had thrown less pitches then Bush.

Ah. Not that often that Wilson misses a play like that.

Charlie -

I mentioned it earlier, but way up at the top of the thread, so you prolly didn’t see it…

Any chance you guys play Chicago?

Also, did you ever get a chance to check out Trotsky Icepick?

by cocktailsfor2 on Aug 29, 2008 8:59 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

We’ve played there before. Don’t have any immediate plans to but I could see how we might in the near future. We’re friends with a really good band there called the Fake Fictions.

Yeah—I liked Trotsky Icepick! They really sounded professional in a way those sorts of quirky ‘80s/early ’90s indie bands usually didn’t.

Keep us posted

if y’all are coming up this way!

Thanks, will do. It’s always nice when folks from the blog make it out. I’m in Pittsburgh so infrequently, I don’t often get the chance to talk about the Pirates in person.

Close play at second.

by Charlie on Aug 29, 2008 9:06 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Yes! Eric Gagne, please.

heh.

seconded.

blast him!

One pitch at bat. Not what you’d like to see against Gagne.

by Charlie on Aug 29, 2008 9:17 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Do you think that

it’s a confidence problem with him?
Would a quick stint in AAA help him?

Who can say, but my guess is that he just needs to be left alone for a while. I wouldn’t worry about him too much.

by Charlie on Aug 29, 2008 9:19 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

AAA`season's pretty much over.

And as far as confidence, what do you think it would do to say," Okay – we brought you in here, gave you the job, traded Joey Bats….but now we’re sending you down?"

Not sure

but he’s really struggling (at least number-wise… I haven’t seen an at-bat or anything).

Hopefully he gets going soon.
