Okay. I’m really back tonight. No more saying I’m back then taking a 2 hour nap.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:01 PM PDT 0 recs

Sadly, I’ll only be around for hour one of this game.

You’ve got better things to do?

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:03 PM PDT up 0 recs

Dinner and things of a dinner like nature.

You must be going out to eat. Are you going to the Sizzler?

El Torito sells four dollar margaritas until 8.

Pickoff Attempt on Andruw Jones? Don’t they know he doesn’t steal bases anymore?

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:09 PM PDT 0 recs

Wouldn’t you just feel bad if Jones got a rare hit and you just picked him off?

It’d be like throwing out the unathletic kid in dodgeball. You don’t feel great for doing it.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:13 PM PDT up 0 recs

Nice job, Kemp.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:14 PM PDT 0 recs

You’d think having Jones barrelling down at you would be too indimidating.

It wasn’t a joke.

My bro and I traded George Sherrill for Brett Myers in one our fantasy leagues. Myers has given up like a thousand runs in his last 2 starts. Great trade by us.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:14 PM PDT 0 recs

Yeah, he’s throwing 88 and making me upset.

I can’t believe Sherrill already has 15 saves. We might’ve been able to get more than just Myers.

Just another walk for DeWitt.

Derek Lowe with a 1-2-3 inning? I didn’t know he could still do that.

It was nice while it lasted.

Why isn’t Vinny doing these games? Does he not travel this far east?

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:25 PM PDT 0 recs

Nope. He only does NL West road games.

Why are you getting Mexican if you’re on a diet? Isn’t Mexican anti-diet food?

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 5:34 PM PDT 0 recs

Pretty much. It’s not a horribly strict one, just a general eat healthier kind of thing. Plus I cut enough fat that I don’t look bloated any more, so I’m trying to add muscle.

I’d go somewhere better if they would put a shot and a half into a four dollar margarita.

The Brewers might be regretting hitting the pitcher 8th right now.

Now you have a ready retort whenever someone brings up a pitcher you don’t like.

Once you get thrown out by Kendall, you lose your rabbit status.

Co-Author Of The Fourth Most Popular NL West Based Blog On SBN

Somehow Kendall has now thrown out 15 of 31 this year.

by El Lay Dave on May 14, 2008 5:55 PM PDT up 0 recs

Yet another reason to have hope for Andruw,

What does that mean?

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 6:09 PM PDT up 0 recs

hasta la vista (or hasta luego)is a farewell, roughly like “see ya later”.

hasta la pasta is the Lasorda version.

bingo

now if lowe stays settled, we can fight back

Settled down that inning.

DeWitt is officially ridiculous.

That is all.

Andruw Jones! He’s back!

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 6:24 PM PDT 0 recs

well..

the rbi single will surely give Joe reason to again start juan tomorrow..

Damn it, DeWitt. Stop swinging at pitches outside the zone.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 7:48 PM PDT 0 recs

Good walk there by Young

by El Lay Dave on May 14, 2008 7:51 PM PDT 0 recs

Nobody should swing at anything. Mota’s pitching everyone away and outside.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 7:51 PM PDT 0 recs

According to Gameday pitch data.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 7:52 PM PDT up 0 recs

Kemp is swinging at everything.

by Tango and Cash on May 14, 2008 8:02 PM PDT 0 recs

An 0-5 collar for Kemp with 3 Ks. I see the wheels of Joe’s mind spinning already, “Ethier in RF against Sheets. JP stays in LF and Jones in CF. Kemp to the bench! C’mon Larry, let’s get a scotch.”

by El Lay Dave on May 14, 2008 8:07 PM PDT 0 recs

Although that last K by Kemp was truly atrocious. From what it looked like on Gameday, he shouldn’t have been swung at any of the 5 pitches he ended up swinging at. One of the worst ABs I’ve seen in awhile. He should’ve walked on 4 pitches. Especially considering Mota couldn’t throw his slider for a strike to save his life.
