Diamondbacks Bullpen

Conor Jackson is a solid ballplayer, period. I just wish he'd be allowed to develop. I'm tired of this guy getting screwed around. Play! Bench! Play! Bench! (gotta get Zombie Clark in there kiddo!) ...

Piecoro's summary of the first half included a reference to OPS+. His game preview mentioned run differential.

Nick is the shepherd mentioned in the famous Ezekiel 25:17 speech

Just name one time that an MLB's team's hitting has totally turned around due to the firing of its hitting coach.

My hope is the

I once met William Shatner...

How often does a team have three all stars and only one of them gets to play in the game?

It seems like poetic justice that Rowand gets a bases loaded out when LaRussa chose him over Byrnes. Nice!

Yeah... well... Byrnes coulda popped up for the final out as well.

True, but LaRussa n ...

Come on! Ichiro just couldn't wait to hit the showers.

Right now we are fans of the worst playing team in baseball. I don't think there's a team in the majors the D-Backs could have beaten over the last week.

1-7 in the month of July.

Yeah...know he was thrown out for a play at first--read that in the box score. What happened? Did he have a beef? Did he go Milton Bradley on the umps ass?

I had to spend most of the evening with the family--what happened with Freel?

Who does David Weathers think he is, Jose Valverde? I think even Valverde would have blushed by that display.

Yup. And we could've been White Sox fans today...

Or you could have had Jon Garland as your fantasy pitcher.

According to Do any D-Backs fans besides us even know how to log on to the Internet?

We should just let Chicago choose our Presidents.

THAT would be a system that works! Cool

Just thought that I'd brag that I was at this game in the LF bleachers. Stayed the whole time...didn't get the ball though.

I also find it funny how people are bashing the attendance at the game w ...

I saw Tony Clark this evening in the parking lot of Ironwood High School. It was a little weird. He had to have flown out of the D-Backs game this afternoon to get there.

Don't blaspheme Brock. That man was a saint and every good memory as a boy and college baseball came through him.

As for Murphy, I hated him when he first got here, but the last couple years he's ...

This is from last season.

BUT, Q needs to reconsider the whole short bat thing. He is missing pitches on the outside corners because his bat doesn't reach it. He's got a powerful swing. Give up ...

You know how these things are. Someone mentions some names of players that would be desirable to another club and then you get some rumor that they're on the block. I highly doubt either will be tra ...

Yeah, D-Backs should have kept Gonzo. Smile

In all seriousness, has anyone looked at Gonzo's splits for this season? He's batting .340 against lefties with a .973 OPS. He's hitting better at home ...

To quote a friend, Adam Dunn is Troy Glaus with worse defense

What do they need? Besides that, I'm at a loss. The SP is good enough if they have the offense. The RP is above average.
