What are the odds that Mark DeRosa ever goes yard again? Extra base hit? Single?

Interestingly... I have a good feeling about DeRosa's chances today. They're going to come inside hard on him during his next AB.....

 

[Heathbar012]

You know what? An 8 pitch AB IS going yard for Chez.

Nice. Apparently, I have repped you too recently, but that was certainly worthy.

21 pitch inning...well done, bottom of the order. Well done.

Can he generate the speed and power necessary in his wrists? I don't really fault the guy. I know he has all the talent in the world. It must be excruciating for him, but he just doesn't have it anymore. That injury ruined his career.

Pretty sad when Sanchy has better ABs than half your position players.

Sad, but true, and I'm not allowed to rep you either.

Maybe Chez is panicking NOW?

 

[msgkings322]

HBP...is the wildness returning?

 

[Heathbar012]

Posey's gonna get plunked next inning.

well see....haven't seen him try to yank one in a while.... but that's why they'll come inside next time. how he reacts to it will be telling.

Agreed. I am certainly hoping for the best, but cautiously optimistic would be an understatement.

 

[gp956]

DeRosa..... no time to move out the way!

 

[msgkings322]

Under 50 pitches through 4 innings. Nice.

 

[Heathbar012]

48 pitches through 4. One ER. I'll take it.

Jinx! Kind of.

Finally able to get onto ESPN...Tommy with his umpjack rant:

[gp956]

gift from the ump there

 

[gp956]

Bullshit

 

[tzill]

21 pitch inning for Baldo...can't see much more than one more inning from him and then into the soft white underbelly that is RawKey Pen....

 

[gp956]

ok...apparently, I need to recalibrate my eyes:
