IGT, Sunday 4/25 Nats (Zimmerman) @ Mets (Ollie)

[metirish]

More than happy that I went to the Zoo and saw and smelled plenty of poop but at least it wasn't this poop of a game.

Goodbye Fossum. But what will going to the 'pen do for Ollie? They'll say that they'll skip his turn (off-day on Thursday) and will work with him for now.

="A Boy Named Seo"]Rob Dibble hates scouting reports. They're confusing and stuff for pitchers.

In Dibble's world that's probably cool , didn't Bobby Valentine basically call Dibble a moron while he was manager of the Mets . IIRC Dibble questioned the toughness of Mets pitchers and Bobby told him to shut up.


Ollie might be the last person I'd want coming out of the pen.

Some guy in baseball-hating Washington has the deets (but not the Jeets) right here.

"He was unprofessional and uninformed," Valentine also said. "This is the reason people switch off ESPN, because you have people with no knowledge of the game or the English language presenting the game we love."

As bad as Ollie was -- and he was -- the second run did him him. We're not going to win many scoring one run no matter who is on the hill.

Rob Dibble has his own blog. He thinks that the Nats have a chance to win 90 games this season:

="Rob Dibble"]The same people who said before the 2008 season that the Tampa Bay Rays who won 66 games in 2007 had no chance are choking on plenty of crow this year. The Rays went from 66 wins to 97 in one year and won the AL East; so why is it so hard to believe the Washington Nationals can't go from 59 wins to 92? That's how many wins The 2008 World Champion Phillies had when they won The NL East last season. If you still don't believe me, believe this: nearly 20 years ago right around this time in April, I was on a team that was 400-1 odds in Vegas to win the World Series. Anytime you want me to show you my WS ring, let me know, I really won't mind...

I don't believe you.

[metirish]

I clicked on the link and yeah Dibble is a raving lunatic, one of the bad things about the internet is morons like him get to have a blog.

But what happens when the team has three 23rd men, and three 24th men? This might turn into its own fun Rob Dibble sez thread.
