I think Halladay is about done.

Weren't they relying on him to be healthy and productive?

Yup

He's had a horrible spring, now his first 2 starts have been bad. His velocity is ok but he's having trouble throwing a strike that isn't right over the plate. Some are saying its the cutter (and the damage seems to be with that pitch). I don't know. The team announced that they will give him all season if that's what he needs. I do think that's admirable that they are sticking with him. I take it that they do not believe he's hurting.

Time will tell.

Ehh, I can't imagine a team being THAT patient with a star player, at least not holding a spot on the roster...

Greinke has broken collarbone as a result of last night's alteracation.

I saw that this morning and saw him go down in a wrestling-like move and thought that was a good way for him to injure his shoulder. But damn - bad news for the Dodgers.

Yeah, I just watched that....wowzers, that sucks....147 million dollar contract, right? Crazy...but I thought the same as you when he made that "wrestle-like" move...You're gonna break something!!!

at least $147 - out until at least June I think

Moderator Posts : 3583 Join date : 2012-04-08 Age : 38

I was listening to Mike and Mike this morning, they were saying June at minimum.

How are the Phils doing, Blondie? I haven't paid much attention to other teams yet.

they're at 4-5 with a 3 game series with the Marlins starting tonight. We need all 3

offense is picking up but the pitching still needs to settle down. no injuries!

I saw that you just lost a pitcher, right? Sad

Moderator Posts : 3583 Join date : 2012-04-08 Age : 38

Who did we lose?!!??!?! Motte, the close, is out...I think for the rest of the season...but he's been out since before the season started.

We play against Lohse tonight...it's gonna be kinda sad.

Also...other pitching news...Westbrook has a 0.00 ERA but is 1-1...damn unearned runs.

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

oh, maybe it was Mott I was thinking of. I really haven't been following all the teams either.

When the Phillies were good, I'd watch Quick Pitch and catch the highlights everyday - we haven't really had any good highlights yet lol2

Posts : 15292 Join date : 2012-03-18 Age : 40

im the same..im kind of out of touch with MLB right now..due to my team sucking like usual...kinda have a bad attitude about it all lol....

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

Didn't they win today?

Posts : 15292 Join date : 2012-03-18 Age : 40

yeah..i think so..i missed the game tho..

11:05 game today for the sox, hopefully they pull off the sweep of Tampa, Lester and Bucholz have been nearly unhittable so far, hopefully they can go the season without injury and share the Cy young award MLB 2013 - Page 10 351549032

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Mon Apr 15, 2013 10:28 am

That would be awesome!

I saw that game yesterday, Bucholz was on fire. Haven't seen a single Astros game yet, some new company bought the rights to their games and they haven't reached a deal with any of the cable companies. It's pissing me off.

samrt move, change leagues, and then not show any of the games on TV, way to keep the fans involved

Posts : 2412 Join date : 2012-04-09

No kidding. I keep seeing advertising from them for people to call and write the cable companies for not trying harder to work out a deal.

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Mon Apr 15, 2013 10:48 am

Red Sox starters have allowed 3 runs or fewer in all 11 games this year, clubs longest streak to begin a season (prev 9 in 1916)

Good weekend for the Tiges...2 out of 3 from the A's, thought they'd be tougher, after us having bounced them from the playoffs last year...they should have swept...the relievers are still shaky...they put Porcello in relief yesterday, that's how disappointing he's been...

I bet the cable companies have ads telling people to call the astros and give them shit for not working harder too, I hate thatshit, everyone is making money off of any deal they make and in the meantime the people paying for all of it have to suffer

We're at 6-6 and with Lee on the hill tonight we stand a chance of getting into "winning" territory. Actually I feel strangely good about this series with the Reds. We've done well against them and we do have our current winningest pitchers going.

3-2 on a walk off double from napoli. dempster has been very very good so far

so far all ther money they spent in the off season hasn't helped much

Reyes going down for a couple of months isn't going to help.

They're last year's Marlins

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Mon Apr 15, 2013 3:35 pm

Yea, and how good were the Marlins last year?

Exactly, I"m glad they are all Blue Jays this year!

Ugh, Boggs isn't much of a closer. I want Motte back!

neither is hanrahan, and apparently bailey. bailey has been great in 8th inning, so they put him in in the 9th and he struggled. but Hanrahan has been terrrible the last two times out. maybe Andrew miller?? he scares the crap out of me every time he pitches though.

We don't have any offense

Guest

We got lots...got a starting pitcher you can trade? sml

Valverde's put in a few scoreless appearances in AAA, he might be ready to call back up..lord knows we need a closer....at least two of our losses were as a result of not being able to close them out.

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

nope, not anymore. We're hanging by a thread cry

Posts : 13554 Join date : 2012-04-09

9-4-

7 runs in the 2nd inning, and coasted to a 7-2 win.

pitching wasn't great, but Doubront had been off for like 11 days I figured he would be a little rusty, he'll be more effective next start

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

game suspended mid-9th

0-0 tie

at least the Reds aren't hitting either

This has been the most BORING stretch of games ever yawn

Posts : 15292 Join date : 2012-03-18 Age : 40

thats my pitcher in that game...they wont give me my points til they finish dammit

also..i have shane victarino (ms) i always liked him

Guest

Tigers won 6-2, but it's Seattle, so they should handle them...Doug Fister is 3-0 yay

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

The Royals ended the Braves win streak yay

Hopefully this will kick start a slow period for them

Rain-out last night....Westbrook still has a 0.00 ERA. coffee

Posts : 13554 Join date : 2012-04-09

10-4 another game 14 now in a row, where are starting pitching has given up fewerr than 3 runs.

jumped on the pitcher for 3 in the first against a formerly unhittable Masterson MLB 2013 - Page 10 3845856932

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

we can't win even when our starter throws a shut out

Guest

2-1 win against Seattle, in 14. For once the relievers hold....1st save of the season too...

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

And the winner of our first trip to the DL sweepstakes is John Lannan - 15 days for a strained knee. I guess that explains why he gave up all those runs yesterday judgy
