IGT 09/09 -- Rockies at Metsies

Why isn't denDekker getting ice on his wrist and on his way to an X-ray machine?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Bunting consistently with your lineup's fourth-or-fifth-best hitter is, indeed, for losers.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Burkhardt is very good and seems to be a super guy but I have no use for a sideline reporter. Would be OK if they replace him with nobody.

[Guest d'Kong76]

They really haven't been able to replace him with those
they've rolled out. I'd be fine with fazing out the reports.

Well I guess David Wright is done for the year. Booth speculating Murphy to 3B and Dilson at 2B for the duration of 2014.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I had a curve
And i threw some gas
And my change up
Couldn't break a glass

Wow, DeGrom is kinda special.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Yeah, it's kinda sinking in!!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Yikes. Heart of the order vs Jennnnry

[Frayed Knot]

Order of pitchers I wanted to see throwing this inning:
1) deGrom
2) Familia
3) Mejia

[Lefty Specialist]

[Guest Trachsel My Tears]

I'm ready to kill Mejia.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Pull em

[metirish]

Please , why did Terry pull deGROM?

[Guest Trachsel My Tears]

I can only imagine how deGrom feels.

[Guest d'Kong76]

That Mejia smirk

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Why not Dario Alvarez here? Let's live on the edge.

He's a MLB manager in 2014. No guts, no vision, no balls.

You're welcome.

>100 pitches coupled with stories about how the brass was worried about the young arms being overworked.

[Frayed Knot]

If Familia can hold onto this one Edgin just may wind up setting a CPF Schaefer PotG record for most beer per pitch thrown.

Some books are harder than others.

6 out of 7. One more here, then a weekend stunner against a coasting Nats club.

Fortunately, it did happen tonight.

Two out of three weren't bad.
