Game 128 Overflow Thread

Another Bannister start, another good time at the ballpark for the opposition. To be fair, Bannister's two home runs allowed have been Miguel Cabrera solo shots. Just think, if he could avoid making those mistake pitches, he might be good! And we can't hit Verlander so far. And Ross Gload is 3-for-3, as his empty batting average rises to help guarentee his starting spot next year. And Gordon's hurt. Other than that, this game has been great.
Party on.

I’ll have to think of some more pitchers.
Berkman’s a bit too awesome, for some reason he strikes me as hilarious. Manny just missed the cut, too. Probably need MITCH on the bench.

His K rate is never going to be high, the stuff isn't there
Which is why I hate the maddux comparision. Because maddux has totally awesome stuff, just like Jamie Moyer does- neither light up the gun but they both have sick movement and command. Bannister needs to find one or the other if he’s going to outpitch his numbers imo

If Guillen had Gordon's injury, he would play OF through it
turnning pop outs into doubles and triples, and not running out groundres to the tune of a .450 OPS.
Then Mellinger would write columns about how the fans shouldn’t boo Guillen because he’s sucha tough guy who brings a needed edge to the team.

God one reason I am in love with the 2008 Rays
Joe Maddon’s use of Grant Balfour. Dude throws all 4 seam fastballs all the time, huge strike out machine. Easily best BP pitcher on the staff – is he closing? No, he’s coming into the game with runners on, whenever the game is ont he line. Just came in with 2 on, 1 out and whiffed Quentin and Dye back to back. Truly an old school fireman.
