Phillies VS Braves Gamethread-Tuesday.

[northeastphillyguy]

Billingsley VS Shelby Miller. Miller has been solid fort the Braves. Billingsley is a question mark for the time
being. Can not predict the outcome at this time. However if Ryno puts the crap lineup on the field as in
when we were losing every game then we are doomed. I think Utley should be rested today and that Hernandez or Blanco should get the start. Once again Galvis needs to bat 3rd in the lineup.

On other notes: Herrera is taking better routes to the ball lately and he will continue to improve. He should
be a candidate for Rookie of the year if he continues to hit and steal bases.

Holy shit, Ruf is in the lineup tonite and I don't see Frenchy and Sizemore posted. Yeah! Yeah! You can stay, Ryno!

WOW! I just saw the lineup card for the Phillies Probably the best lineup all year! Someone got to Rynos thick head or someone told Amaro to stop dictating every move that is made. Maybe it was the stats guy they hired.
Either way we have a chance to score some runs tonight!

Bombs away! Don't worry Chad, we're used to it. Freeman homer. 2-0 Braves.

Billingsley is about to implode. It will be a long night!

 

[jvett77]

Asche fucks up an easy DP ball. Braves 3-0. Better call Franco.

 

[jvett77]

He just imploded. 3-run home Kelly Johnson. Braves 6-0. Good nite, I guess.

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Billingsley not looking good.

 

[jvett77]

Put the Phanatic in. Why waste the bullpen on this lost cause. Oh, I forgot, he doesn't travel to road games.

 

[jvett77]

Hey, no ex-Braves in the lineup tonite. Ryno, you idiot!

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Well there goes my best lineup theory. Back to the old insanity now. Ruf blew his best chance tonight. Dom Brown will replace him soon and the beat goes on!

 

[jvett77]

I bet you when Brown comes back, he goes 0 for 4 and Ks twice. And if he does more than that, fans may think a savior is here for a second chance. Then in 30 days he'll be batting .213 and we'll all start throwing cigars and beer cans at the TV knowing we got fooled again.

I wanted to see a depiction of some real baseball in action so I watched MoneyBall last night on the idiot box with Brad Pitt.

Great movie! Bean never had any money to spend. He would make trades to get guys with higher on base percentage. Unlike Amaro Bean thought it made more sense to have more people on base. He would bring up pitchers at a younger age if they showed talent and simply because his team could not afford players on the open
market. HE VALUED GUYS WHO MADE BETTER CONTACT as opposed to hitting homeruns and striking out a lot.
Somehow his formula worked. Along the way teams like Tampa, Kansas City, Minnesota and a few others copied
some of his style with success.

 

[Retroram52]

Including the Boston Red Sox who used his formula and won their first WS title since 1913. Screw Amaro. That kind of braindead dunce is so worthless as to make tits on a bull fashionable and useful!
