Game 130 Open Thread: Nationals at Cardinals

| Lannan | Smoltz |
| 8-9, 4.03 | 3-5, 7.40 |
Lannan had a nice rookie season but has lost two strikeouts per nine in 2009—it's a wonder that he's maintained a decent-looking ERA with the Nationals' defense behind him, but he's done it. Happy Smoltz Day!

Holy Shit! Hoodies are expensive as hell. $70 for a Hoodie!? This Hoodie inflation is getting ridiculous
if you're fishing for a compliment for your low price hoodies
you’ve got one.
cheers to flim!
defy, cards, defy. hey logic --- you suck.
the low price hoodie run is about over
I got a good deal on 4 of them than the price sky rocketed.

then you didn't even see the really expensive ones
like the Ed Hardy ones, over $100 easily. Even the t-shirts for Hardy, Affliction etc are in the 60-100 range. It astonishes me that people will pay that much to look like a total douche, and the fact that they do just ups their douche quotient. Anyway, nikestore.com’s clearance section always has a good selection, and every month or two they have a 20% off sale on top of that. That’s where I stock up on ’em.
i get cheap t-shirts to wear
white, gray, black

KFC Has A Bacon Sandwich That Uses Fried Chicken As "Bread"
The sandwich consists of two fried chicken fillets wrapped around bacon, cheese and Colonel’s sauce. It apparently tastes like you think it would. An early-adopter explains:
That’s it? That is the sandwich? That’s not worth five dollars. Oh… oh my God. That is the best thing ever. I don’t know what “Colonel’s Sauce” is, but it is like a party in my mouth. This is completely worth the five dollars. Unfortunately I’m going to end up weighing 700 lbs after this, but it is simply amazing.
Agreed
Drop me some provolone on that baby and ditch Colonel’s sauce…actually, I’d still be too worried about my arteries to try it

provolone, swiss, muenster...
really just about any cheese other than american
or nonexistant...
I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter?
Considering "American Cheese" refers to something that does not fit the legal definition of cheese...
I shit you not.
From wikipedia.
Today’s American cheese is generally no longer made from a blend of all-natural cheeses, but instead is manufactured from a set of ingredients… It therefore does not meet the legal definition of cheese and must be labelled as “cheese product” or similar.
Bon Appétit.

Natinals lineup
Harris 8
Orr 4 (MLB debut for this guy?)
Zimmerman 5
Dunn 3—> that’s a shame, I’d rather see him in the OF
Willingham 7
Dukes 9
Bard 2
Gonzalez 6
Lannan 1
Harris, Orr, Dunn, and Lannan are lefties, Bard switch hits. Smoltz was able to to pitch effectively to the Padres’ lefties (minus the one loud out to Adrian Gonzales), so if he’s able to get the Nat’s lefties out and we can get 5+ innings out of him I think we’re in good shape.
Orr used to play for the Braves

I think part of it is as soon as he seems to get his swing back, he gets walked. I get the feeling he gets even more annoyed because he wants to see live pitching so he can get his timing right.

yeah, he's thrown 3 or 4 this game, it has them all as changeups
it’s not a straight splitter anyway, it tumbles a bit more, so it’s a fair characterization
On Chris Carpenter in the 2009 Cy Young Race: "He's got one," Wainwright said. "He doesn't need another one."
Splitters and changeups move in the same direction,
so gameday identifies most of them as changeups. You can tell by speed and spin on PFX whether they’re splits or not.
"Of course Kolby Rasmus was going deep! That’s what Kolby Rasmus does! You don’t give Kolby Rasmus second chances!" -Kolby Rasmus
yeah?
I was just going off the trajectory…..the splitter’s path looks more L-shaped, like a sinker with a much sharper knee
Not sure what you mean by L-shaped.
The break should be parabolic, but it would be sharper with a slower pitch (change/split) than a faster pitch like a sinker.
Anyhow, changes/splitters move the same direction as in, down horizontally from a fastball, in toward a same-handed batter. They also have similar speeds, and since changes are more common GD usually just goes with that.
"Of course Kolby Rasmus was going deep! That’s what Kolby Rasmus does! You don’t give Kolby Rasmus second chances!" -Kolby Rasmus

dunno if we've come to a defnitive answer
but it is the almost anti-cycle of outcomes that usually represents Ankiel’s progression of PA’s in a game. Something like K, K looking, foul pop, infield pop. Maybe a weak grounder to second replaces one of those pops.

see the team takes quick shitty swings and keeps the score low while our pitcher keeps the game tight then when the other team threatens in the seventh inning, the opposing coach will pinch hit and Tony will be able to pull a double switch and get the lefty-lefty matchup. Aha, genius proven again.

one feature of TLR teams over the years that I've noticed--
especially the good teams—is they often seem to be playing up or down to the competition. They play a first-place team, and they look like world-beaters. They play the Astros or Nationals, and they scrape and struggle.
funny you should mention that
I don’t know if there is anything statistical to prove it, but I’ve noticed the same thing

could be just confirmation bias
when they play poorly against a good team or smoke a bad team, we don’t think anything of it. But it sure seems like Tony’s ballclubs have that tendency.
