A.J. needs to stop swinging at head high fastballs.

Just foul.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:18 PM) AJ swung at ball 3. Hopefully that would've been called a ball. He swings at balls all the time.

Are you serious? That's a strike? That ball's almost letter high.

Slowey should be out of this game right now. He's behind almost every hitter.

That's a bulls*** call. Danks didn't get the corner out there a couple of times.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:11 PM) Bulls***, i can like the team and not like the broadcaster. That's ridiculious. Seriously. It's like saying you have to like obnoxious fans or something.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:09 PM) The good news? He'll be kept out of the field!!! You use your hands a lot when you hit too, mind you.

He seems fine, running at 1B now.

Let's hope Q's okay.

God damn it, now Quentin might be hurt.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:06 PM) So the following batters where he preceded to give up six runs are meaningless in this discussion, right? How about the counts where he had two strikes on a guy and couldn't put him away? I think you need to look at the before and then the after. In the before, he sure looked like he had some decent stuff. Then after the error, it wasn't the same. He was obviously rattled. I'm not trying to say that Danks had no fault, but the error had a huge part in why that inning transpired.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:05 PM) What did Q do? Gameday says nothing about an error or a ball hit to him. He couldn't get to a pretty routine fly ball, Rios had to cover for him and dropped the ball because he was afraid of running into Quentin.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:03 PM) Danks had nothing. He was going to hit with or without Q screwing up. He sure had nothing while retiring 5 of the first 6 hitters, including one that should have been an out.

Seriously, Quentin needs to start DHing. I think what he did in the past two games while DHing should put the myth that he'd kill himself while DHing to rest.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:02 PM) Got to love Hawk acting like that error by Q prevented Danks from getting any of the guys who followed him. It definitely had an effect.

Finally!

f***.

It's pretty obvious that Danks is frustrated. Frustrated by his defense and by some of the calls by this umpire.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 07:56 PM) It doesnt matter, he was facing the bottom of the order and he wet himself.... Danks needs to stop being a b**** and get the job done. Are you really going to blame the pitcher when his fielders can't make routine plays?

This is what I feared.

Danks is leaving his pitches up. Damn it.

All of these runs should be unearned.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 07:53 PM) He allowed a single with 1 out and bases empty at the time, if it costs you the game you put that on your pitcher just as much as a bad play.... None of this probably happens if he doesn't attempt to run into Rios.

What the f***?
