QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:15 AM) There isnt much point in benching Anderson more. Give the B.A. experiment till AT LEAST June till they pull the plug I like playing Mackowiak just because you're giving one of the guys a chance to get in a groove. We're going to need some more production from our CF as we're playing tough teams over the next few weeks. We face Santana on Friday, so Anderson would get 2 days off before playing Friday night.

Good job Scotty....even if I HATE stealing with Thome up and 2 outs.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:13 AM) Unfortunately, he really hasn't been much better than Anderson. Under the circumstances, shouldn't Ozzie just let the kid play? Isn't everyone a "kid" to Ozzie?

I think it's safe to say Mackowiak will be starting in CF tomorrow.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:05 AM) Yeah, I'd definitely rather face him than Washburn. The other two don't strike much fear in me, however. Bring on Washburn. I'll take our righty launchers again his high fastball any day. That noise you hear is Brian Anderson crying that we won't face Felix.

Wow...not a good throw by Crede. Hopefully this isn't like the bottom of the 4th. Dangerous hitter at the plate in Costa.

BTW, according to my calculations, we'll miss Felix Hernandez in Seattle next week. Looks like we'll get Moyer, Pineiro, and possibly Washburn.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:59 AM) Way to go Uribe. Now we got to hope Jon can keep this lead and that our bats can muster up some more insurance runs. Is it too much to ask for an uneventful top of the 5th inning?

Jphat....WE CAUGHT A BREAK! Great job of taking advantage guys.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:58 AM) Strange play. Nice piece of hitting Joe. It was strange, but if the throw's on line, Dye's out before Thome crosses home.

Way to go Joe....great looking swing. Thome didn't seem to be running well that inning, and I'm shocked that Sanders didn't throw home.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:55 AM) PK gets the f*** jammed out of him. 2 down. Our hitters are struggling with Affeldt's heater tonight.

Garland's had very good command of his fastball. He's still struggling to keep his changeup down.

I get the sense that a lot of guys are in launch mode tonight.

Jphat....were you on suicide watch after those bloopers that inning? How about we get a bloop and a blast this inning?

Good catch by Anderson. He's going to bust up his chin on one of those bellyflops.

Terrible slide by Sweeney...even though I think he was still safe.

What a great play by Dye!!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:43 AM) Yes it was. Ugh...that's not promising. It seems like he'd have a very hard time pulling the ball with authority. He's trying so hard to hit it to right field, he'd have to roll over to hit the ball to left field (which was what we saw when he hit into that double play last Friday). I think we can all agree we'd rather just see Anderson cut it loose at the plate.

Good swing by Pods....pathetic swing by Anderson.

Anderson has a huge hitch in his swing right now. Was it this bad last season? I honestly can't remember.

I don't know what that pitch was that he just threw, but if it's his changeup, just keep it in the bag for right now. It was a 85 mph meatball down the plate.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:32 AM) Quit f***ing around on the outer half for crying out loud DJ was rather angry in his analysis of Garland's approach now. Way to go DJ!

Ha, I think Garland throws his first changeup of the game, and it's destroyed to the opposite field. Stick with the sinker Jon!

QUOTE(Whitewashed in '05 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:25 AM) DeJesus hurt again? It's too bad....Costa's swinging the bat a lot better right now than him.
