Lol
Is it just me or did it look like Guillen was a wee bit out of breath after that run.. LOL
not exactly sure why Maier wasn't put in to run for him
especially if they tie it up, I would rather have him in right field

ugh.

Dang, was really wanting some redemption for Aviles there
But it’s going to have to be Covelli
that pitch was right down the middle and he knew it was coming
yikes
realistically speaking
Ouch
Aviles swings and misses on 2 fastballs over the middle of the plate
c'mon crisp
just get us a single…that’s not too much to ask, right?

subjective vs. objective
If you asked me without looking at numbers, I’d have to say it seems like Crisp has a hit every game. Like tonight ,
I'm not a sabermetrician, but I do play one at Driveline Mechanics.
crap, didn't mean to post that
just that Crisp has a couple hits tonight. Nothing deep, and BA doesn’t matter, just sort of surprised by his BA being under .250 when it seems like he’s alsays getting hits.

Agree.
If I had to, I’d guess he’s hitting .320 or so. Weird.

this is the same guy who admitted in the postgame yesterday
he ONLY had a fastball last night, and that he “couldn’t find” anything else, so he just kept throwing FB.

Can we get a Rally Mandelbaum in the 9th PLZ?
It worked last night…
i'm reading rany's blog post about how the indians are the royals now
is he going to delete that after tonight’s bullpen meltdown?
realistically speaking
gotta give him a chance to regain his confidence
or totally piss down his leg for the 2nd time in the game
realistically speaking
which makes me wonder if his wrist is really messed up

i would love to try and steal but
it makes no sense, so we can’t

he is currently goat-less
lets go royals.....only need a single now!

so we steal anyway
single ties it

Nobody to take Trey off the hook tonight
Time for him to own up to his moronic decision.
By the way, I’ve said this 4-5 times this year, but I full expect Pontoon to be DFA’d tomorrow if anyone in this organization has a brain.
- W. Bloomquist homered to deep center
- P. Earth explodes
with Hochevar looking like crap?
not so sure aboot that

Replacing one young guy not pitching well
with a below replacement level tub of goo with a 6+ ERA wouldn’t be an upgrade.

too bad DDJ had to make the last out
given what a good game he’d had at the plate overall — he’s heeating up, that’s for sure
I'm not a sabermetrician, but I do play one at Driveline Mechanics.
where will all the people be that were saying "this team is different" last night
looked like more of the same shit tonight. 2 games back now behind the tigers afterserving this one up on a silver platter
realistically speaking
I guess I just don't see the same games everyone else does
No team plays perfect games. I’m sure that anything 3 runs or closer has opportunities both teams could have taken advantage of to win the game.
hard not to agree from an objective perspective

by Matt Klaassen on May 20, 2009 11:45 PM EDT up reply actions
true
both teams left a lot of men on base tonight
I didn't think we necessarily deserved to win tonight
But we didn’t necessarily deserve to lose either. It was a coin flip since we didn’t hit Carmona as hard as he could have but they almost gave it right back to us. How was Wood’s 9th that much different than the 7th. If Wright or Ponson get an out here or there, it’s probably our game to win. But instead, they gave up the lead and try as hard as they could, the Indians bullpen couldn’t tonight.
Time to go out there and win the series tomorrow!
