Rain, Rain, go away. Come again on a Todd Wellemeyer start day.

Arroyo at 110+
a night after a huge workload for the bullpen is the kind of thing i need to learn how to wager on. I could’ve cleaned up. So predictable from Dusty

by kalmavet on Jun 2, 2009 10:36 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
some of it comes from
Thurston starting a LOT more than Barden.
There’s an argument to be made—I don’t know how much I believe it now, although I would have agreed to it readily for most of the rest of the season so far—that if Barden had gotten this much playing time that he’d be OPSing as well or better than Thurston is now.
That’s where some of the Thurston criticism is coming from, I think….

and Barden seems to have a better glove

by mattyfrommo on Jun 2, 2009 10:41 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Thurston is OPSing .805
He has essentially replaced Troy Glaus so far. It’s very unlikely that Barden would do any better. The problem is, Thurston is historically not a very good player and doesn’t project to do very well in the future. Most people feel that his season so far is a fluke, and we would be better served to get a “real” third basemen.
