IGT 4/17/10 - Johan Begins The Turnaround

[seawolf17]

Okay, enough of this. Let's turn this thing around and get it cracking. He's the ace, in a big spot, on national TV. BRING IT, Johan.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

It'll have to be a pitcher's duel, then.

Because I would bet a kidney that Jaime Garcia will pitch 6-7 innings of 3-hit ball tomorrow, whiffing a couple and generally Greg Smithing the fuck out of this squadron.

That would probably be accurate, yes. And the correct phrase is "Jason Jenningsing."

Kenny Albert (subbing for Joe Buck who gets a week off after working for one day in two consecutive weeks) and Tim McCarver with the call. Ken Rosenthal will be the sideline reporter, providing obvious comments and information that you already know while passing them off as insights.

Very cool! Today is one of the few days where I'm glad I don't live in Hawaii.

I hate the Cardinals. I sometimes forget how much I hate the Cardinals. Right now is not one of those times.

I hate the Cardinals.

I got it from The506.com, home of the famous NFL distribution maps.

Here's the map for next Saturday:

[Guest Kong76]

I tried to watch some of the Yankee game this afternoon. I just
don't know how people can do it. It's so alien to me on so many
levels I can't put it into words.

[bmfc1]

That was nice of FOX, showing us Castillo doing you know what and Molina doing you know what. "Two franchises going in opposite directions." FANTASTIC!

[Theoldmole]

It's only human nature to try to be something you're not.

[bmfc1]

C.B. Bucknor behind the plate. Good times!

[bmfc1]

What does "elegant competitor" mean?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Santana's being more aggressive, going after guys even after Schumaker's dobule.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Anyone who welcomes being called "Tom Terrific" has got to have an appreciation for the graceful sulk of a bow tie, no?

(I was thinking figure skater, though. A little too on-the-nose.)

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Have I mentioned how glad I am that the team had no interest in tossing 2 million at Lopez?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Rasmus strikes out with 2 on and 1 out, with the pitcher coming up. Johan strands 'em.

That'll leave Lil' Colby

.

Yeah, but he's not going to last long at the pitch rate he's racking up.
He's got John Maine disease so far: lots of deep counts and foul balls resulting in 25 pitch innings even when you're not giving up runs.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Boy, there couldn't have been any way to make that Jameson Whiskey ad stupider, could there?

[Frayed Knot]

[Frayed Knot]

OK Tim, I give up, how are you rating NYM ticket sales for the year after, what, 6 home games?

I mean, I know this is 'jump on em when they're down' time, but there seems to be almost a contest among mediots to act as if this team has been cellar-dwelling has-beens for about 8 years now.

[Guest Edgy DC]

The worst part is how self-fullfilling it is. You distort the truth long enough, it takes on a truthiness of its own.

Meanwhile in Realityland, that's 13 in a row for Jaime Garcia.
