no pressure Rick, just take what he gives you

a bases clearing double is all we need right now.

don’t try & do too much

But NO pressure, Ank.

Seriously, nothing to worry about, kid. Don’t freak out. No need to doubt yourself. (etc.)

Well, Rick can't die by high heat tonight

so I wonder what will come of this.

I love Glaus’ patience this year, but he’s always a heavy changeup hitter and had two right into his wheelhouse, let them both go by, I mean he’s on, but I wouldn’t have been mad if he swung

Someone should

put up a FanPost w/ the nicknames for the players used around here. It seems like at least 1 or 2 people are confused in every game thread.

Just a thought…

there was one

but it fell off the main page…

you have Glaus spelled “Glaud” though.

Fair enough...

I guess there’s no “sticky” equivalent like in a forum to keep certain threads on every page?

Come on Ank

Kenny hasn’t been close with that curve all game, lay off of it

Rick really needs to get some better pitch slection

in the worst way.

if he’d stop swinging at all the junk, there’s no telling how good he’d be

Ugh

How many of those pitches he swung at were actually strikes? Looks like on Gameday he could have walked in that AB…

i think that last pitch curve was the only stike of the at bat

but there wasn’t much he could do with it any way

dude really needs to be more selective at the plate

He was setup, and baited well

Curves all going outside, have been all game, then one comes down the plate and that was it.

Tanking during the heat of the voting can't help,

Just hope a healthy Albert might help him, and whoever might get the fastball laden 2 hole.

uh, take a # LOOP

i guess

he’s talking about his throw to looper covering first. looked fine to me.

yeah, but did you see LOOP glare at AK as he walked back to the mound?

hey matty

We all love Rick….......Collateral damage from misuse is piling up. He is going mental. And that is why Rogers pitches around Lud and Glaus to get at him.

Looper looks solid yet again tonight

The two runs he’s given up tonight have been solo HRs on good pitches. Nothing he can really do about that.

True

It was a four base double.

I'll never say a bad thing about loop

when he’s getting beat on pitcher’s pitches. So far tonight he is.

That being said, the second time he was beat, it wasn’t for a run, just an XBH
