Nationals @ Mets, Game 1

[DPMOmaha]

Wow.  it was Villone.

[Nathan]

Was that a tongue in cheek quote? 

Never. 

[Spinman]

Who do you guys think will be in the Bullpen 2011? 

[Nathan]

Who do you guys think will be in the Bullpen 2011? 

I'll tell you someone who won't be.  Bally.

[Spinman]

Who starts the 2011 season in the rotation for Syracuse?

Wang, Detwiler, JD Martin, Mock, Chico

[Spinman]

I'll tell you someone who won't be.  Bally.

I was wondering where my pain pills went... Nathan's takin' EM!

[Potomac Cannons]

Maya and Milone should both be in the AAA rotation next year.

[Spinman]

One of the Last questions for the night... What do we do with Stammen?

[Nathan]

I was wondering where my pain pills went... Nathan's takin' EM!

They take the edge off.  But seriously, Bally, Burnett, Storen, Clippard should all be locks.

[Lintyfresh85]

Seriously Ray? You don't think we understand what a 1-5 means in terms of pitching rotation?

Geeze man... give us SOME credit.

[Spinman]

Maya and Milone should both be in the AAA rotation next year.

2 million dollar Maya sitting in AAA and not in the Majors bullpen?

It's one of the most exaggerated things in all baseball.  It's great fun to talk about, but not very meaningful other than as a way to rank your starters.

[MarquisDeSade]

Just turned the game on.  Have we really been struck out seven times by Pat Misch? 

[Spinman]

Thats 4 out of 7. Who stays out of these guys... Stammen, Batista, Peralta, Slaten, Walker, Maya. I don't see how they sit Maya in AAA paying him 2 million$$$. They will at least use him out of the pen if not in the Rotation.

[MarquisDeSade]

I don't see how they sit Maya in AAA paying him 2 million$$$.

Wasn't he the guy they touted as being "Major League Ready"?

[DPMOmaha]

One thing, and some here will disagree, but Gonzalez has to be back next year.

The hitters act like they're ready to go fishing. 

I've got a fishing trip coming up next weekend, and I'm tempted to check out early as well.

[Nathan]

Very valuable bench guy.  He can play great defense in the infield, and can still hit at least a little.

[Potomac Cannons]

Who in their right mind would disagree with AlGo being back next year?  He, Roger (if a starting OF comes in FA) and JMax should be 3 of the 4 bench regulars.

My kind of fishing- good luck chick brings Morse HR

[DPMOmaha]

And, just like that we're tied.

He killed that thing.

I've been shouted down a couple times.  Haven't brought it up much recently though...

[tomterp]

Just think how far Morse could hit the ball if he would just alter his swing as recommended by Ladson.

[DPMOmaha]

Just think how far Morse could hit the ball if he would just alter his swing as recommended by Ladson.

Or "adjusted his swing" like Bautista did.

[MarquisDeSade]

Wow.  Ten strikeouts by Pat Misch.
