7/23/13 Reds @ Giants--Game 2

[reds44]

Choo
Izturis
Votto
Phillips
Bruce
Frazier LF
Hannahan
Miller
Reynolds

[RedsBrick]

The Todd in left. Interesting.

[TheBigLebowski]

This lineup may halt the recent offensive onslaught, but we'll see..

[joshua]

Saw Reynolds on Reds Live. Dude had a giant smile on his face.

Don't know how I feel about these uniforms.

[reds44]

Has anybody in baseball worn black pants before?

That would be sweet with these and tops.

/ducks

[Big Klu]

10:35 first pitch. Feels like the old days of the NL West! They always started at 10:35 in Los Angeles and San Francisco. (San Diego usually started at 10:05.)

[joshua]

The White Sox wore some sexy black shorts. They should try that out.

[Australian Red]

Line up doesn't look strong and that's me being polite

[NebraskaRed]

Line up doesn't look strong and that's me being polite

Gotta do what you can with these double headers.

[Big Klu]

Has anybody in baseball worn black pants before?

The Pirates, back in the late 70's and early 80's.

[joshua]

Just noticed Izturis playing. Cozart finally got goin' and Dusty puts Izturis in. Dusty creates lineups via witchcraft, I'm convinced.

[LexRedsFan]

Line up doesn't look strong and that's me being polite

Don't think the Giants will be rolling out a top tier lineup either.

I'm digging the black hats, but not so much with the red and white.

[Tom Servo]

The White Sox wore some sexy black shorts. They should try that out.

[50YrRedsFan]

Dodgers have taken the lead over TOR, 10-8, 9th inning.

[RedsBrick]

The White Sox wore some sexy black shorts. They should try that out.

Best softball unis ever...

[ProfessorTofty]

And it's root, root for the home team as we shortly begin game two of the doubleheader. After that huge triumph in the first game, it'd be great to snag both, concerns about the lineup aside.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Love the alternate black cap with Mr. Redleg on it. :thumbup:

[ProfessorTofty]

deja vu
Forum hiccup there.

Anyway, quickly one out for the Giants.

[LexRedsFan]

Looks like some funny stuff just happened with the site. Lots of double posts. I'm going to try do some cleanup. Let me know if I accidentally delete anything twice!

[VottoFan54]

Why did Dusty pull Cozart if he wasn't going to play game 2? Would've made more sense to have BP sit those last few innings IMO.

[50YrRedsFan]

deja vu

deja vu again and again

[Tadasimha]

The black hat/red jersey/white pant is a little much imho. It would look better with the regular red hat.

[reds44]

I'm telling you...black pants lol

[ProfessorTofty]

I think you did with me. No biggie, though.

[Tadasimha]

Maybe we'll see him as a defensive substitution late?

[Tom Servo]

lol votto leg wiggle

[The DARK]

Looks like we're relying on the 5 out of the 9 batters and our fresh new starter carrying their weight.

[50YrRedsFan]

Whoops, sorry Posey

[Big Klu]

Love the alternate black cap with Mr. Redleg on it. :thumbup:

I disagree. I don't like the black batting practice cap, especially with the game uniforms. :thumbdown:

I like the red jerseys for this game, though. I would like to see the Reds occasionally wear them on the road.

[RedsBrick]

Plunk

[ProfessorTofty]

Reynolds quickly in trouble here. 2-0 Giants

Gonna need to keep up that production from the offense.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Not the greatest idea to throw to the plate there. Had no chance.

[LexRedsFan]

2-0 Giants after a Kung Fat Panda double.

Crap.

[Tom Servo]

well that's no good

[Brutus]

I hope Dusty is made aware of being the "home" team so that he can adjust his usage of Chapman accordingly, if push comes to shove.

[reds44]

booooooooo

[RedsBrick]

Not the greatest idea to throw to the plate there. Had no chance.

...and I was wondering if Corky was going to get up before the guy advanced to third...

[50YrRedsFan]

This is the majors, son. gotta spot those pitches better. 2-0 SF

[Tom Servo]

hit by pitches will haunt. not catchy, but true.

[LexRedsFan]

...and I was wondering if Corky was going to get up before the guy advanced to third...

Just lost the ball and did a complete 360 looking for it.

It was right between his legs.

:laugh:

[Brutus]

Reynolds is seeing his career 7.47 ERA take a hit. Never thought that was possible.

[BluegrassRedleg]

I disagree. I don't like the black batting practice cap, especially with the game uniforms. :thumbdown:

I like the red jerseys for this game, though. I would like to see the Reds occasionally wear them on the road.

Agree on that second part. Could wear them with the grey pants.

I like the cap, though. Much better than the old black cap, red bill with the wishbone C, IMO.

[Australian Red]

Let's bring Cingranni back!!

[joshua]

Corky had no idea what happened there.

Reynolds has to calm down or this is going to get out of hand.

[LexRedsFan]

hit by pitches will haunt. not catchy, but true.

How about "will hurt"?

A nice little double pun, or whatever you want to call it.

[Big Klu]

Not a good sign for Nick Masset's future with the club, when they give his number (#40) to a one-shot fill-in.

[Tom Servo]

I just noticed the FS Ohio graphic has SF in red and Cin in orange. Guess they were not prepared for tonight.

[LexRedsFan]

3-0 as Sandavol scores easily from second.

Oy vey.

[ProfessorTofty]

Oy. Now 3-0. Not loving this.

[BluegrassRedleg]

This kid has made some decent pitches this inning. Sandoval and Pence both just found an empty space. Bad luck.

[RedTeamGo!]

Well, that was a nice story for about 5 minutes.

[joshua]

Ouch. Reynolds getting knocked around. Looks intimidated out there.

[Tom Servo]

He's still better than Pedro Villareal.

[Brutus]

I hope the Reds saved at least a half dozen runs from the first two games. They might well need them.

[50YrRedsFan]

Down 3-0 with a five hitter offense....not real good.

[dsmith421]

He's still better than Pedro Villareal.

I believe this is known as "damning with faint praise."

[Gallen5862]

I Just now got the extra Innings switches over to the Reds game. How did the Reds give up the 3 runs?

[joshua]

At least the pen is mighty rested.

[TheBigLebowski]

Believe this guy was the 2nd overall pick in the 06 or 07 draft.

Inexact science.

[LexRedsFan]

How does it seem like the Cards have clowns come up to make starts like this and they go 6 IP, 1 ER and when we do it and they get absolutely shellacked?

[OnBaseMachine]

Reynolds has nothing. This is almost Villareal bad.

[Tom Servo]

Ouch. Reynolds getting knocked around. Looks intimidated out there.
I wouldn't say knocked around, exactly. Sandoval's was a rocket, other than that, it was a single, a HBP, and a bloop.

[kaldaniels]

Chins up guys. They still go for the sweep tomorrow.

[joshua]

How does it seem like the Cards have clowns come up to make starts like this and they go 6 IP, 1 ER and when we do it and they get absolutely shellacked?

Same could have been said when we brought Cingrani up initially.

[DocRed]

Ya this double header idea was a great idea...I'm seeing 2 blowout games. Great decision....

[Big Klu]

Agree on that second part. Could wear them with the grey pants.

I like the cap, though. Much better than the old black cap, red bill with the wishbone C, IMO.

I didn't like that cap either. I prefer the solid red cap for both home and away.

If we need an alternate cap, then use a solid white cap with red bill (no pinstripes) at home, and a gray cap with red bill on the road.

[joshua]

Barely missed the DP.

[RedsBrick]

Hopefully he can get out of this, settle down and go from there.

and hey, bad Zito has as good a chance of showing up as good Zito.

[Tadasimha]

I didn't like that cap either. I prefer the solid red cap for both home and away.

If we need an alternate cap, then use a solid white cap with red bill (no pinstripes) at home, and a gray cap with red bill on the road.

The white cap looks too "Good Humor Man" for my tastes - although I'd like to see a white batting helmet with a red C. Gray cap might look good, though.

[RedTeamGo!]

Think about it this way: 6-7 years ago, Greg Reynolds is on the opening day roster.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Crossroadinals, we are not. No souls have been sold to get this kid a dominant outing tonight.

[Red Raindog]

can't find the game on my Dish Network hopper system -- anyone got the right channel number?

game one was 41232 ---

[ProfessorTofty]

Hopefully he can get out of this, settle down and go from there.

and hey, bad Zito has as good a chance of showing up as good Zito.
Agree. 3-0 is not the end of the world. Let's see how this goes...

[RedTeamGo!]

Lol, that throw had nothing in it

[RedsBrick]

Cork delivering the rainbow to 2nd...

[LexRedsFan]

Same could have been said when we brought Cingrani up initially.

True. I was barely considering Cingrani as such because I kind of expected results similar to what we've gotten, especially the first time around the league.

Seems like StL ALWAYS has that happen, but maybe their prospects have all been their highest regarded.

[kbrake]

Think about it this way: 6-7 years ago, Greg Reynolds is on the opening day roster.

Opening Day roster? He would have been our "ace" starting on Opening Day.

[Tom Servo]

Judging by the FS Ohio scoreboard, the Niners lead the Bengals by a field goal.

[Kiko]

Zito is good at home but the Reds have hit him really well. Just need Reynolds to hang in there because he isn't pitching that badly.

[hebroncougar]

Reynolds has to be a ground all machine. If its above the kneecaps, he's in trouble.

Opening Day roster? He would have been our "ace" starting on Opening Day.

Don't forget about the Harang-a-tang

[TheBigLebowski]

Maybe the game turns and David Fulcher holds on this time.

And cue Solomon Wilcots.

[LexRedsFan]

and hey, bad Zito has as good a chance of showing up as good Zito.

Possibly a better chance!

[WebScorpion]

Opening Day roster? He would have been our "ace" starting on Opening Day.He looks better than Steve Parris... ;)

[Big Klu]

It brings back memories of the 50's Redlegs of Frank Robinson, Gus Bell, Wally Post, Joe Nuxhall, and Ted Kluszewski. (Most of the players would have to show more red in their socks, though.)

[ProfessorTofty]

Choo nearly blasts one out, but it's caught at the wall.

[kbrake]

Don't forget about the Harang-a-tang

True. You said 6-7 years ago. I was thinking more Jimmy Haynes and Paul Wilson era.

[reds44]

Paul Wilson fought Kyle Farnsworth one time.

That went well.

[Tom Servo]

True. You said 6-7 years ago. I was thinking more Jimmy Haynes and Paul Wilson era.
The late Cory Lidle was also an Opening Day Starter for the Reds.

[Big Klu]

Judging by the FS Ohio scoreboard, the Niners lead the Bengals by a field goal.

:whodey:

[Tadasimha]

It brings back memories of the 50's Redlegs of Frank Robinson, Gus Bell, Wally Post, Joe Nuxhall, and Ted Kluszewski. (Most of the players would have to show more red in their socks, though.)

Never have gotten the sock fetish - I prefer the long pants (so long as they're properly fitted and not slopping around the heels of their cleats).

[Tornon]

Zito's been awful on the road, so we still have a shot to score a bunch

[powersackers]

Choo
Izturis
Votto
Phillips
Bruce
Frazier LF
Hannahan
Miller
Reynolds

This lineup is not worth staying awake for.

[reds44]

The late Cory Lidle was also an Opening Day Starter for the Reds.
Man I remember thinking Lidle was a decent pitcher for the Reds.

He had a 5.32 ERA.

That's my first 10 years of a fan in a nutshell.

[RedsBrick]

Maybe Zito will be confused....pitching at home while wearing road unis....hmmmm...

[kbrake]

This lineup is not worth staying awake for.

I think I'm going to have a few drinks and see if it starts looking any better.

[Kingspoint]

How does it seem like the Cards have clowns come up to make starts like this and they go 6 IP, 1 ER and when we do it and they get absolutely shellacked?
Travis Wood, Lecure, & Cingrani all did well on early call-ups.

[reds44]

I think I'm going to have a few drinks and see if it starts looking any better.
I'm giving it until the 4th-5th and seeing where we're at before I decide.

[Tom Servo]

I think I'm going with a midnight curfew for myself...unless something good happens. :)

[Big Klu]

Never have gotten the sock fetish - I prefer the long pants (so long as they're properly fitted and not slopping around the heels of their cleats).

We'll just have to disagree on that.

(Actually, I prefer stirrups over solid-color socks, but solid socks over ankle-length pants--or longer.)

[powersackers]

Coffee might do it for me

[Ironman92]

can't find the game on my Dish Network hopper system -- anyone got the right channel number?

game one was 41232 ---

9516

[Red Raindog]

found the game --- hope something good happens now!

[LexRedsFan]

Ooooof.

[Tom Servo]

Ok Greg, 4 innings 4 runs. Could you give us that?

[Kingspoint]

Hopefully he can get out of this, settle down and go from there.

and hey, bad Zito has as good a chance of showing up as good Zito.
Not in SF.

[50YrRedsFan]

Dodgers have won again, 10-9 over TOR. They were once behind 8-3 as late as the 6th

[Ironman92]

Blank o up says Grande

[LexRedsFan]

Wow. That seemed like a blown call to me. I think that was an out.

Dusty out to argue.

[ProfessorTofty]

That looked like out at the plate to me. Dusty out to argue.

[reds44]

And Miller costs the Reds a run.

[Red Raindog]

9516

I found it at 41234 are you on Dish ?

[Crumbley]

Edit: pocket post

[Tom Servo]

WHAT

[Tadasimha]

he is out - bad call

Nope - the foot got in. Ump got it right.

[reds44]

He was safe. Brutal play by Miller.

[LexRedsFan]

Mes or Hannigan gets that out.

Proper call. Poor block by the Corkster.

[RedsBrick]

Actually....great call.

[Kingspoint]

Geez, Miller. Block the plate.

[RedTeamGo!]

Good call - that's on corky being a wuss

[WrongVerb]

Corky Miller looks like he's playing lazy.

[Red Raindog]

And Miller costs the Reds a run.

yup -- bad tag attempt

[reds44]

Clearly safe.

[reds1869]

Wow, just brutal defense from Corky.

[Tom Servo]

Corky didn't get the tag. Ugh.

[BluegrassRedleg]

Storm knocked out DirecTV here. Bad call? Marty & Cowboy think so.

[RedsBrick]

As big as he is, he can't block the plate?

[ProfessorTofty]

No, definitely safe on the replay, unfortunately. Shame. 4-0 now.

[BluegrassRedleg]

They just saw the replay, saying it was the correct call now.

[Ironman92]

Storm knocked out DirecTV here. Bad call? Marty & Cowboy think so.

No....good call.

[reds44]

Storm knocked out DirecTV here. Bad call? Marty & Cowboy think so.
They would be wrong.

[joshua]

Good thing I have bourbon.

[Playadlc]

lol corky.

[Crumbley]

Corky Miller.

[RedTeamGo!]

Is corky miller seriously good at anything on a baseball field? Literally not one reason he should be on a major league team

[Ironman92]

Corky had no need to block the plate....but if he receives that like a second baseman on a steal....easy out

[Kingspoint]

What a tremendous throw. Never once in my life did I block a plate that poorly. That's what scared guys do. You're lucky to be here, Miller. Give it all you got.

[powersackers]

Heard some fan yell "Dusty you can't see that far!"

[WVRedsFan]

Hmmm. Looks like both teams played for the split. Giants in the first game with their pitcher and the Reds in the second. And the lineup!

It's early, though.

[LexRedsFan]

Alright guys, I'm as confused as any of you as to why Corky is on the roster but he's still there and the same rules will apply to him as any other player about player bashing.

And I may be guilty too. :)

[RedsBrick]

Corky's at least a 4 tool player: no defense, weak arm, can't run, terrible bat. Does the 'stache make up for all that?

[Crumbley]

Is corky miller seriously good at anything on a baseball field? Literally not one reason he should be on a major league team

"Good" is way too high a bar. "Vaguely okay" would be more appropriate: the answer would also be "no."

[joshua]

As bad as this looks so far...maybe Reynolds will calm his nerves, Corky won't have to make a big play the rest of the game and Zito turns into Zito.

[Tom Servo]

Corky will hit a grand slam to redeem himself.

[kbrake]

Corky Miller.

This would have been a good game for the bar.

[RedEye]

Corky's at least a 4 tool player: no defense, weak arm, can't run, terrible bat. Does the 'stache make up for all that?

Wait. I thought tools were supposed to be things you CAN do. Wouldn't this make him a four non-tool player?

[Ironman92]

Corky will hit a grand slam to redeem himself.

Yeah....an inside the parker

[Red Raindog]

Good thing I have bourbon.

Grand Marnier here

[RedEye]

As bad as this looks so far...maybe Reynolds will calm his nerves, Corky won't have to make a big play the rest of the game and Zito turns into Zito.

I admire your optimism.

[reds44]

I bet Corky could put down beers like few have before.

[toledodan]

Corky will hit a grand slam to redeem himself.

corky may eat a grand slam at denny's:lol:

[RedsBrick]

Wait. I thought tools were supposed to be things you CAN do. Wouldn't this make him a four non-tool player?

Yeah, probably should've put it -4 tool player

[ProfessorTofty]

First and second now for the Reds, lower portion of the lineup coming through once again. Come on now, runs!

[Playadlc]

Frazier should tee off here.

[reds44]

If Corky goes yard in this game, I will literally buy anyone who finds me when I'm in town for the Padres series a drink.

[Red Raindog]

I admire your optimism.

He may be right -- or he may be drunk -- or both

[TheBigLebowski]

Hannahan, Miller and Reynolds to bring these ducks home from the pond. Blech.

[WVRedsFan]

Grand Marnier here

Sam Adams. And it's too expensive to chug. Gotta find my Icehouse somewhere...

[Kiko]

Man, you all are tough on Corky. That was a tough play. He caught the ball and made the tag but just didn't have enough of the plate blocked.

[DocRed]

Corky will hit a grand slam to redeem himself.

Won't happen...even in Tecmo baseball with the easy setting on.

[LexRedsFan]

Nice start to a little rally here.

Now comes the rally killing bottom of the lineup. But hey, Hannahan is hitting .389 in my MLB The Show franchise season number 2 (next year). So there's that.

[Australian Red]

Time to move up the difficulty level

[kbrake]

It was 83 lean into one!

[RedTeamGo!]

Man, you all are tough on Corky. That was a tough play. He caught the ball and made the tag but just didn't have enough of the plate blocked.

That IS a tough play .... For me to poop on.

[Red Raindog]

Sam Adams. And it's too expensive to chug. Gotta find my Icehouse somewhere...

I admit to being a booze snob - I know what I like and I'll go hungry to get it!

[Tom Servo]

Not really sure why Dusty wanted to give Hannahan a start against a lefty instead of Robinson.

[LexRedsFan]

Time to move up the difficulty level

Simulated stats, man. Simulated! I wish I was that good.

[Larry Schuler]

Corky is clutch. He'll get this.

[Kiko]

Corky aka Australian serial Killer Ivan Milat

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f1/Ivan_Milat.jpg/220px-Ivan_Milat.jpg

Was he involved in the Snowtown murders. Man, what a creepy/disturbing movie that was.

[RedEye]

That pitch had a nice bend... but I don't think it was a strike.

[kbrake]

Not really sure why Dusty wanted to give Hannahan a start against a lefty instead of Robinson.

Players manager dude.

[WVRedsFan]

I admit to being a booze snob - I know what I like and I'll go hungry to get it!

Me too, but I'm not rich!

[RedTeamGo!]

Not really sure why Dusty wanted to give Hannahan a start against a lefty instead of Robinson.

I think it was more about Frazier getting a start in left

[reds44]

LOL!

[Tom Servo]

Do not doubt corky

[kbrake]

And hell has frozen over.

[BluegrassRedleg]

CORKY!

[ProfessorTofty]

Not in time on the throw to the plate! 4-2 now, and suddenly Miller looks like a hero.

[MBZags]

I'm shocked Corky didn't take 3 bags right there.

[Big Klu]

The Corkster with a two-run double!

[joshua]

Totally redeemed!

[RedEye]

Corky!

[reds44]

hahahahahahahahaha

[WVRedsFan]

Holy crap! Corky! His big hit for the year

[RedTeamGo!]

Corky! You're the best!

[Tadasimha]

If Corky goes yard in this game, I will literally buy anyone who finds me when I'm in town for the Padres series a drink.

So your going into hiding, is what you're saying?

Say hey, how about that Corky Miller!

[Spider Tre]

DA STACHE!

[LexRedsFan]

I thought he had that inside the parker we were talking about.

[Kingspoint]

All Hail, Corky!

:)

[RedsBrick]

THE CORK! The 'STACHE

[WebScorpion]

Sam Adams. And it's too expensive to chug. Gotta find my Icehouse somewhere...After I get a little sleepy I'll brew up an Irish coffee...75% Peet's & 25% Jameson's.

Corky pays us back! 2-run double! :clap:

[Larry Schuler]

Corky lives for that feeling of fresh air blowing through his mustache ends. It's his "open road".

[RedsBrick]

Is Pence's arm really that weak?

[WrongVerb]

Not really sure why Dusty wanted to give Hannahan a start against a lefty instead of Robinson.

They showed a graphic that lefties are hitting .373 against Zito this year.

[Tom Servo]

I want to see Corky try and score from second.

[Tornon]

I think we found our new cleanup hitter

[50YrRedsFan]

Does Reynolds know which end of the bat to hold?

[TheBigLebowski]

Corky is clutch. He'll get this.

Wow. Great call.

[RedEye]

Man... Pence literally looks like he's dislocating his shoulder every time he "throws" the ball.

[Crumbley]

Corky dropping the BOMB on us 'stacheless geeks, caused me to come within a hair of knocking a giant vat of coffee off my desk.

[JaxRed]

Triple here scores another.

[Red Raindog]

Me too, but I'm not rich!

I will admit to not being poor --- don't claim to be rich -- can I say that without coming across as an *ss?

[Roy Tucker]

I'm shocked Corky didn't take 3 bags right there.

The stache has too much wind resistance

[WebScorpion]

Is Reynolds 6'10"? that dude is towering...

[WrongVerb]

Did anyone catch Grande saying "and there's a looper" on Corky's clear ground ball past the first baseman?

[50YrRedsFan]

Can you imagine the looks Zito will get when he gets back to the dugout?

[RedEye]

Perhaps Zito is a lefty Choo can hit...

[Tadasimha]

I will admit to not being poor --- don't claim to be rich -- can I say that without coming across as an *ss?

Only if you're not talking to someone who's poor

[Ironman92]

Is Reynolds 6'10"? that dude is towering...

5'19

[WebScorpion]

The stache has too much wind resistanceEr, I'm pretty sure that's not what slows him down. :ughmamoru:

[RedsBrick]

They showed a graphic that lefties are hitting .373 against Zito this year.

Robinson bats lefty too

[LexRedsFan]

I would start Corky here.

[Big Klu]

Is Reynolds 6'10"? that dude is towering...

6'7".

[Tom Servo]

Choo is no Corky.

[Tadasimha]

Is Reynolds 6'10"? that dude is towering...

Was thinking the same thing!

[Ironman92]

Two active MLB pitchers have won 23+ games in a season.

Justin Verlander 24
Barry Zito 23-5

[RedsBrick]

Perhaps Zito is a lefty Choo can hit...

nope

[RedEye]

Perhaps Zito is a lefty Choo can hit...

... or not.

[Crumbley]

Alright, we got ourselves a ballgame. 1 AM, here we came.

[Playadlc]

How does Choo miss those pitches?

[WVRedsFan]

I will admit to not being poor --- don't claim to be rich -- can I say that without coming across as an *ss?

No :)

[Ironman92]

Alright, we got ourselves a ballgame. 1 AM, here we came.

7th inning maybe

[LexRedsFan]

Corky Miller walk-off HR.

It's the only way to end a game this bizarre, right?

[Ironman92]

It's been my birthday forever....lol

[New York Red]

How does Choo miss those pitches?
Lefty

[VR]

Zito up to 39 pitches......smelling an early bullpen again.

They'll be wiped out by tomorrow.

[Red Raindog]

Only if you're not talking to someone who's poor

money is about as toxic as religion & politics --- but baseball --- now we're talking!

[RedsBrick]

Maybe the runs will give Reynolds a little pick-me-up

[Tom Servo]

Maybe this game will convince the Giants a Corky for Posey straight up deal would benefit both sides.

[Roy Tucker]

Would be nice for Reynolds to settle down now.

[reds44]

In all seriousness, sinker ballers can't be ampt up. I think you'll see Reynolds settle in.

[Tom Servo]

Reynolds needs to keep killing worms.

[VR]

Corky Miller walk-off HR.

It's the only way to end a game this bizarre, right?

A walk off home run would be the coolest thing ever.

[LexRedsFan]

Would be nice for Reynolds to settle down now.

Gets Posey on a weak groundout to Phillips.

I wouldn't mind him sticking around in the pen if he does settle. Certainly think he would be better than Partch. Maybe Ondrusek too.

[powersackers]

Perhaps Zito is a lefty Choo can hit...

No. It looks like it would defy the laws of physics for Choo to hit Zito.

[Ironman92]

Maybe this game will convince the Giants a Corky for Posey straight up deal would benefit both sides.

Rosie the Red could have a pocket full of Posey's

[joshua]
