Open Thread 5/21: Braves at Pirates #2
by Scott Coleman on May 21, 2010 8:27 PM EDT
Email
Print6-0 Braves in the 4th.
Heyward is 2-2 with a HR, 2B and a walk. Huddy has struggled with control but he's still shutting them out. He also has a RBI-single, cause he does it all by himself.
GO BRAVES!

36 pitches through 2 when he had 4 BB
72 in 6IP since

I think he had 2 BB in the 3rd. But I remember 36 pitches through 2
He threw a bunch in the 3rd inning
must be between 40 and 50 over the last 5

the is creepy
what does it have to do with anything?
The future is the present. Jason Heyward has arrived.
I wonder if Bobby Crosby is deluded enough to believe that all the Crosby jerseys in Pittsburgh are in support of him

I love how someone was bitching about Derek Lowe’s contract and one of their main points was that even the Mets wouldn’t give him 3/36. Nope, the didn’t but they decided to give it to an inferior pitcher.

either way, the point was that even the Mets weren’t stupid enough to drop that kind of money on Lowe…completely ignoring the fact that they signed Perez for close to the same.
I’m rambling now, ignore me.

vazquez
i was watching the phills sox game, and the switched to the mets yanks.. and i dunno if anybody else posted anything about this and im to lazy to look it up, but vazquez can only pitch against the nl…. should we get him back…??
If DLowe’s contract would disappear, I’d be all for trying to sign him this offseason.
Kawakami - 1, Halladay - 0
only if it’s a year or two deal, which I doubt he would do
