5. Diaz, C
6. Andy LaRoche, 3B
7. Pearce, RF

4. Choo, RF

6. Peralta, 3B
7. Valbuena, SS
8. Gimenez, 1B
9. Huff, P
Free your ass and your mind will follow.
Android alert on Gimenez
Not so much Valbuena, though. I’d heard his name going into the season as a potential impact prospect for the Tribe. Also, Huff just kinda sucks. However, I’ve gotta ask – Gimenez who? I hadn’t heard of him until about a week ago. No idea about anything there. Figures that he’ll proceed to hit for the cycle or something today.

Guess cutting Monroe wasn't enuogh to get Moss back on the field.
Maybe he needs to start sliding over bases to claim an every day job.
I know it's a LHP
but seriously, how many days off does Moss need (regardless of what hand the opposing pitcher throws with)? Last time out, he didn’t play because it was a LHP, but went 1-1 pinch-hitting against the LHP. Why not at least give him a shot?

But NyjMo is fast. Whoo! Look at him go! He just stole another base right there.
Oh wait… never mind… he overslid it.

Look like

and…. what? He threw one inside?

missed his spot
I’m sure he wanted no part of the inner half of the plate
hadda be a mistake.
Still… ERA is under 5 now.

Whoo hoo
I get to actually watch this game on Sportstime OH
It's Lima Time. . . . . . .BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do any of you think Sizemore is overrated?
Every year I hear people say if they could choose anyone to start a team with Sizemore is extremely high on the list. I just don’t see it.
Almost yearly 30-30 guy (or close to it)
good defense, decent average, still relatively young. rated about where he should be I think
I'm not saying he isn't a great player
I do agree with that but I could think of a nice group of players I’d go with before Grady. Pujols is by far 1 and its not even close.
I don't think
anyone would take him over Pujols or a number of other players. But if every player in the majors where put in a draft, he probably would go in the first round or early 2nd.
It’s known as fantasy baseball…and yes, that’s where he is in a normal draft.

Duh
stupid question. It’s a LHP. We need to bench Moss. Otherwise he might fail to get a hit and become clinically depressed or something.

He may try
but my money is on Pearce putting him through a wall
Changing subjects a bit (or a lot)
Virgil Vasquez left his start at Indy earlier after one scoreless inning. Anyone know if there’s something wrong with him?

Maybe Karstens will be better

2 pitches.
Doesn’t matter HOW low the bar is.
Speaking of bars… BRB. Need another. Makin’ a double. Anybody? While I’m up?

Freddy
About turned around and punched LaRoche after that popup.
It took him two pitches
And they almost screwed that up with Adam and Freddy running into each other. It’s OK folks, they’re professionals!!!!

You would've nailed it
If they had that in PNC park. Maybe that will be a new promotion next year like the All you can eat seats.
Altoona update...
Pedro 0-2. Kyle Bloom leaves the game in the 4th with a back injury after throwing 3 shutout innings.
Why'd they pull Karstens so quick?

I was just a surprised as you…I don’t like this call. Using up the bullpen this early isn’t necessary
That's stupid though

And now
Burnett will need to be pulled after 1 inning. Or allowed to bat despite the team being down 4-0.

I have continually been a backer of JR but some of these moves lately have me turning to the dark side
Lefty PH against a LHP?
Why not Moss?

You guys...
You KNEW this was gonna happen, didn’tcha?
I mean, come on. This guy starts the game with an ERA closing in on 7.
OF COURSE he’s 2-hitting us.
Oops – 3 hits Attaboy, Jack!

Virgil Vazquez pulled from his start today
and he was healthy link Snell out of here?
Hinske
all he does is walk or K. Luckily, he walked here.

Vasquez
8:41 p.m.: Vasquez was lifted early so he could be available to start for the Pirates Friday, if needed to take Charlie Morton’s turn. Morton has had lingering trouble with that tight left hamstring. Thus, it apparently has nothing to do with Snell.

Frustrated with the hammy
I’m ready to get Morton on a roll. I think he will be a good piece for our rotation
DeRosa and Sizemore
have both caught balls that would have been 2B with Pearce or Young out there (3B if it’s Cutch)
Oh hey guys...
wonder why the Pirates can’t sell out tickets to a Cleveland/Pittsburgh baseball series…
Oh, right… we freaking suck ass.
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
Hahahaha…perfect. Yeah, I don’t get the whole notion that two teams that are close together and wish the were “rivals” should sell out a game, let alone a series. If both teams suck big ones, then it doesn’t matter.
"Hmmm, it really hurts when I hit myself in the head with this hammer..."

I agree… I got a pic with Bunny Carlos, too, but it’s still in my camera. They were opening for Def Leppard and Poison, but my buddy and I went mostly to see Cheap Trick and pick up an autographed guitar for our radio station, so we didn’t stick around.

was showing the game between the Cubs and Stros where he struck out 20. I really think it’s sad what happened to him with all the injuries. Great player to watch

MOSSY
hitting for higher BA than Mario, NyjMo.
But of course, hit sits.
Free your ass and your mind will follow.
Well he has to sit
Mario = best power hitter on team
NyjMo = speed.
To quote myself…
But NyjMo is fast. Whoo! Look at him go! He just stole another base right there.
