Given it's strikeout night for Dunn, maybe Manny should have put Willie Harris in. He would have caught that and thrown it in before the guy could tag.

Tavarez is a nibbler. he doesn't throw strikes. ship his ass out of here. same with Kip Wells and Mike Hinckley. and Logan Kensing. and Joel Hanrahan.

Willie would have eaten that up

Acta has subbed in close games in the past and it has come back to bite him. Tonight he doesn't and it comes back to bite him anyway.

He's bad, but he's not that bad.

nice to see Tavarez give it up. he's not very good. it's laughable that we are putting guys like him and Kip Wells in the game in crucial situations. they are just as bad if not worse than Hanrahan and Rivera.

good night folks - another blown opportunity - but did we really think we could beat6 the cards? but we could have - we just dont know how to play baseball. we walk and walk and walk batters - how many 2nite 8 or 9?

I cannot wait until the morning I wake up and find out that Acta & St. Claire are gone. i'm tired of seeing this blank stare on their faces as we self destruct each night

pretty much. he's immune to throwing strikes. freaking garbage.

Yes Julian, walking a hitter under .200 for his career is a GREAT move!

nyexpofan · « **Reply #533 on:** April 30, 2009, 10:01:39 pm »

now he's behind again

hrm. i guess we'll be getting a Minty/SF "Dunn is worthless" thread in a few, right? (assuming that Dunn missed a ball just now)

nyexpofan · « **Reply #535 on:** April 30, 2009, 10:02:11 pm »

if a pitcher cant throw strikes, what is he doing in a bullpen?

none of the guys in the pen can. it's a joke. Call up Clippard, any body who can put the ball down the plate. these guys freaking blow

Ballgame.

Los Nacionales 4
Careenulls 5

Top of da 9th.

We specialize in screwups.

Yes, I have the Cardeenulls closer, Ryan Franklin, on my fantasy team. And yes, he HAS a FAKE BEARD.

the cards have a guy in their pen that hasnt given up a run in 10 appearances - can u imagine such a thing? we had a guy who was like that in st and in 2 appearances in the majors, but we sent him to the minors

I'd prefer Colome. He wasn't this bad. Colome picked up the save for Syracuse tonight. He has yet to allow a hit or a run for the Chiefs so far in 4 innings. 4 IP 0 H 0 R 0 ER 1 BB 4 K. Too bad we can't call him up for 2 weeks.

He didn't miss a ball. The left handed hitter hit a ball a couple of feet off the left field line and he could not get there from where he was positioned. To blame Dunn for that is asinine.

how much more of this are we supposed to take!

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #547 on:** April 30, 2009, 10:05:52 pm »

dumb nag. this is embarrassing. ship all these freaks out of town. bring up everyone from AAA.

Kevrock · « **Reply #548 on:** April 30, 2009, 10:05:57 pm »

That wasn't a bad walk. Chill out.

That HOWEVER, was freaking terrible. HBP 0-2. F-word.

PC · « **Reply #549 on:** April 30, 2009, 10:06:06 pm »

How can a closer have not allowed a run all season? How is that even possible!!!
