“Yet another rain-free rain delay. The Marlins just announced this one will wait until after an imminent storm passes through. These things never take long down here.”
Wasn't there a bee-related delay yesterday somewhere?

Surprised there wasn’t more of a buzz about it. That really bugs me…

Sportsline Game Center
shows Eric Fryer on the bench… how did I miss his jump from low-A with the Yanks to our ML bench?
And now this:
Not a drop of rain has fallen, but a new start time of 6:40 was just announced. Apparently, it will take them that long to dry off the dry field.
Well,
they beat the Brewers. So we remain just 6 back.
Can’t decide if that’s good/bad.

This is a new record.
4 and a half hours late.
Brilliant.

Technically
we’re still alive.
Like they say, it’s not over until Freddy/Jack/Mario/Capps/Grabow (or at least a couple of them) have been traded the fat lady sings.

Well okay nevermind it wouldn’t have made it over the wall but it would’ve been a double, at least..

Injured, it seems.
I was hoping it was trade related, but Dejan (FWIW) said he wasn’t being discussed with the Twins

Hoping it was trade related? Why? Who’s going to fill in when he leaves? If he gets traded, 2B is going to be UGLY.
You mean...
other than Freddy tweaking his back getting out of a cab?
Yes! My strategy worked. I said Moss hitting third was a joke and then promplty followed that by saying I hope Moss proves me wrong by hitting a HR and a double. Well, he’s halfway there! I’m a genius.
Dammit, why didn’t you say he should prove you wrong by hitting 3 HRs and driving in 8 runs?

Hey we just got 1 in 1 inning…
(Anyone read xkcd? We’ll have 9 by the end of the game!)
by pittbluedevil on Jul 3, 2009 6:51 PM EDT up reply actions
Slight edit
if we extrapolate it out, we’ll have 45 runs after the game, not 9.

So...
it seems like Yunel Escobar could be had.
It might cost a bit, and I know he’s struggling right now (and his head isn’t really in the game… see Craig Monroe’s best moment as a Pirate), but is it worth a look?

NyMo has a walk, SB, and run scored after the first inning in DC.
Yeah
but what did he do OFF the field?!? Hmmmm?

Morton's got some good stuff

Here comes the rain
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
Geez, Morton can’t catch a break. Hamstrings and now rain delays. Will he ever make a start longer than 5 innings with the Bucs?
I was worried
that he’d screw up his hammy again IN the rain before they delayed the game.

Cutch
had time to make a sandwich before that throw got to first…
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
It was a hit
Uggla actually made a nice play but threw a little off-line, but Cutch is so fast even a good throw wouldn’t have gotten him…
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
LOL Uggla is horrible

He was safe safe safe

Sportsline Game Center
besides showing Eric Fryer on our bench, is showing Bard and Willie Harris both playing catcher for the Nats tonight.
Doesn’t it get crowded behind the plate?
They're playing on...
guess they wanna get in 5 and call it…
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
this is dangerous for the players
and a horrible idea… i can’t believe they’re making them play

Well...
if they would have started the game on time…they’d already have 5 innings in.

WEll,
I get home & my boy Mossy is the sheaut tonight! HR, 2 RBI…how’s JR’s new BFF Jonesy?
Free your ass and your mind will follow.
Good news?
Restart time at 8:05, and DK says that Morton went to the pen to stay warm, so he’ll be back out for us.
There he is, back on the mound.
Hope he didn’t lose his stuff.
by pittbluedevil on Jul 3, 2009 8:02 PM EDT up reply actions
We're back
Morton is back out
I'm droppin' flava, my behavior is hereditary--but my technique is very necessary.
So...if Volstat is being replaced...
why the fuck not get someone up there to hit? But I’m not complaining. I’ll take the free out.
...or two outs.
My god. If Volstat isn’t up again in the next inning, that proves to be the worst move in baseball, ever.
and a tidy
7-pitch inning for him.
Gah.

Wow
Morton looks amazing.

Wow.
He missed the glove, went right down the middle of the plate…but thank god Ramirez didn’t swing.
Morton is dealing
It would be nice to see him get seven or eight innings tonight after all those shorties.
An out in 3 or less pitches...
freaking Florida…

Using the powers of extrapolation (see above)...
yesterday: Moss had 1 HR
today: Moss has 2 HR

Moss has been flashing some serious power since the 5-day off thing. Maybe not in the HR category, but doubles & triples too.

This is why I was not thrilled with the Hanrahan part of the trade (even though I loved it overall because of Milledge).
He smells too much like Tyler Yates II.
Give him some time

Hanrahan
I normally don’t place too much stock in coaching at the mlb level, but I think Kerrigan will help Hanrahan. Seeing him pitch, it looks like it is a matter of getting him to trust his stuff and not try to overthrow. Look for Hanrahan’s velocity to come down to 92-94, maybe a little lower and you will see positive results.
I was at the yard the other night when Ohlendorf pitched. Mostly 88-90 with 93-94 on maybe 4 or 5 pitches – all strike 3 swinging. Kerrigan is a shrink, not a pitching coach. If he gets Hanrahan to buy in, it will turn out good for the bucs.
