He’s pitching entirely off his off-speed stuff the past time and a half through the order, throws you 5 straight breaking balls and you are sitting dead red FB. Great.

You're right.
The error was when Bourn was already on base.
by Ghostrider520 on Apr 14, 2010 10:42 PM EDT up reply actions
Odd
Because Bourn wouldn’t have got to second without the error, so wouldn’t have gone to third on a groundout and then scored on a SF. Shouldn’t be an earned run.

i just think he's gotta catch a couple games
so when tonite’s lineup came out with yadi, that eliminates penny. carp and waino will probably say no, although they won’t actually be asked, and they might want to give the kid garcia the benefit of yadi. so i figured it’d be lohse.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
that's actually good reasoning

Astros are one feeble offense. Franky didn’t throw anything tough and ‘Stros couldn’t even sniff a hit

I'd rather see a late game lineup switch
to get bench guys playing time that starting a lineup with scrubs+albert.
I understand that our bench guys are better than the typical bench, but it just sends a bad message in my opinion.

so, he’d have to be around 3.00 ERA after a full season to average out to a 4.00 ERA. and that’s probably not good enough to get him type A status. and and even 3.00 is probably the most optimistic one can be

the only negative thing is we signed him quickly

we signed him before 08 season ended
on what was supposed to be his last start – he skipped it. the market stuff happened after that.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
well it was still a bad market
i remember hardly anyone signed until January
only reason I remember is because my dad commented how we signed him too quickly

yep
they were locking him up so he didn’t hit free agency. and then two bad things happened – the market, and his fluke injuries.

i think ppl are angry at his contract
im a lohse fan too…. im giving him the benefit of the doubt here

Fair assesment
And I am a lohse fan, I think the only thing about the lohse signing that isn’t great is the market carshing after he had already signed and as a pure pitcher I think he’s very good. I also think the next two years after this one will be nearly as good as ‘08 despite his age. I just think he’ll be slowed a littel this year by still learning how to bounce back from an injury.

Players of the game
Luddy 2 for 4, Lopez 2 for 3, Pujols had our only RBI, and mainly Brad Penny for pitching very well. also, Boog avenged. and the bullpen somehow did not fail.
not players of the game: Colby, Holliday both 0 for 4 against Astros pitching. Yadi 0 for 3. Skip took 2 walks and had that one at bat where he wore down the pitcher, so he’s off the hook

bread actually has massive networks of dormant mold
They are sterilized by cooking/baking.
But over time, airborne spores find their way onto the nutrient-rich surface of bread and start multiplying — even under the cold conditions of a refrigerator. At freezing point, fungi become dormant. But if they are exposed to heat again, they can revive and continue to grow.
So keep your bread in the fridge or toast it well.

the other thing is
nutrient-rich (and pH balanced, etc) liquids and sugars are what bad beasties eat. bread is a more complex thingy. it needs enzymes to break it down … and generally the enzymes in your mouth get to it before anything else does.

can u legitimately be worried about an offense that has
Albert Pujols… well i need not continue but will
Matt Holliday, a .300 leadoff hitter, former 30 HR, 100 RBI guy (which i think he can duplicate this year), a prospect will 9 walks (9!), All-Star catcher, and Allen Craig/David Freese (ok well this part i understand, but one of these guys is gonna hit 15 HRs)

well he was just annoying to me overall. I don’t hate him or anything but band’s go through this type of drama quite often. basically he threatened to get me kicked out of the band rather backhandedly so I thought it over for a bit and just quit and moved on to something else. plus now I get to play guitar, bass, or synths depending on what song we’re doing.

becoming unnecessarily bossy and trying to take control of nearly every aspect of the band
but basically I saw a pattern emerging after a year and a half, and he and I were disagreeing about a lot of stuff, such as song arrangements, recording, and a range of other stuff that I will not go into. basically it became not as fun.
so now I am starting a different type of band that is more along the experimental/jazz/psychedelic instrumental rock vein instead of straight up midtempo heavy metal. if I play heavy metal again it will either be much slower or much much faster.

in new orleans
the horn is always the star. just saw some a band at cafe negril – think it’s the marsalis family place, or the neville’s (whoever doesn’t have snug harbor next door) – and the trumpet and sax guys had just finished touring with willie nelson. they were the stars. the bass guy in the back had won a grammy.

they take some practice to get used to
also, you need to find your ultimate 3 presets for the delays, you can make your guitar sound like other things. like one I made sounds like a lap steel with delay on it, one sounds like a weird synth or something, and the other one is more just sort of a normal delay, but even that on is kinda odd.

Major parts of the city have been ceded to the political opposition - no police or military. Traffic, always bad, is controlled by red shirts. . . .
meaning no control at all. We need to borrow Albert to clean up around here.

one, Boog talks to reporters too much, and in too much detail. again.
two, making decisions because of Joe Mather.
three, McGwire upset because he went to the stadium without him? what? Mac, you gotta give the guy his space. this is was my initial concern when Mac came on as hitting coach. mother henning them to death. getting too involved with a bunch of guys who are used to nursing their own swings and managing their own slumps.
four, Boog cares a ton.
five, he’s really smart about the feel of his own game, and seems a lot more cognizant of when he feels frustrated.
Lick that shoulder—you're in the doghouse now.
