I don't trust him for another inning.

He seems to do better w/ the bases empty, but yeah, it's still scary.

We need lots more runs. A one-run lead isn't going to hold up here, I don't think.

Too bad Riggleman sat Hammer. Never mind, double switch which is hard to follow on the radio.

I've change my mind. Solve the Villone problem by DFA'ing him and I don't care who they bring up.

Ron Villone is worse than the worst of Joel Hanrahan and Jesus Colome.

I'd call up LH reliever Yunior Novoa from Syracuse to replace Villone. he can't be any worse.

He turns 25 in September and was a non-drafted FA in 2002 out of the Dominican Republic. The Nats picked him up after '05 and he has been in our system since then.

He's a tall and lanky guy. 6' 4", 180 lbs.

He was injured for part of this year but posted a 3.99 ERA in AA and has a 1.29 ERA in AAA since being promoted a few weeks ago.

That matchup tomorrow is not good. Mock probably won't make it past the 4th inning, while Haren is pretty tough. Our bullpen needs one of these guys to get a good start soon.

When Haren gets run support, he's one of the toughest to beat.

going to be a laugher.

i'm going to miss it anyways. have my first fantasy football draft (auction style) of the year tomorrow night. it's our 7th annual league. we've had the league going since we were in 8th grade.

The umpires helped us last inning.

if he starts walking batters I would yank his ass out.

Nicely done, Ny-Mo

Yeah, stress him out more.

good defense.

now let's watch one of our pitchers roll over for Reynolds again tonight.

We have Sosa, Kensing and Clippard left.

No Bob. Mark Reynolds is a homerun hitter, not a flyball hitter.

ernie0326 · « **Reply #341:** August 07, 2009, 10:06:31 PM »

THROW STRIKES!

Watching Macdougal pitch is really irritating.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #343:** August 07, 2009, 10:06:52 PM »

1-2. DON'T THROW HIM A STRIKE!!!!!!

He struggles telling the difference.

Lintyfresh85 · « **Reply #345:** August 07, 2009, 10:06:58 PM »

I'd get Clippard up if Reynolds reaches.

ernie0326 · « **Reply #346:** August 07, 2009, 10:07:28 PM »

one down!!

ronnynat · « **Reply #347:** August 07, 2009, 10:07:33 PM »

Keep pitching like that. Two more!

JMW IV · « **Reply #348:** August 07, 2009, 10:07:42 PM »

there you go. Clippard is warming up.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #349:** August 07, 2009, 10:07:50 PM »

quality pitch.

be careful with Montero. he can crush the ball. he will smoke the ball to the opposite field if you pitch him away.
