Duke was a great off season pick up.

One of my favorite all-time .gifs

If you look at my post history, I'd say that GIF finds its way into my posts at least 25% of the time.

We don't exactly have a bunch of MENSA members here.

I HATE Mike Rizzo. Stupid freaking idiot.

The reason we have the lowest bullpen ERA in May? Because HRod and Zach Duke hadn't pitched since April 30th!!!!! These losers do not belong on a Major League roster. That's embarrassing as hell.

He was on the team last year. We needed to not resign him

Man, I would have hated to waste a lot of $9 beers on this bullcrap.

He was terrible before April 30th too, Bob.

I am so glad this game is not on national TV.

Oh, btw, it is poring rain right now here in NOVA.

well, who thought we'd go
one forty-seven - fifteen
still this is ugly

We wasted stammen last night on a game we had in the cards.

What's the point in getting another reliever up? This team can barely put two hits together. The chances of them scoring six more runs is very slim.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #313:** May 11, 2013, 05:54:15 PM »

Why did Rizzo feel the need to re-sign Duke to a 1 year Major League deal? Made no sense. Could have brought him back as AAA filler and stuck him down there.

He refused to pony up for Michael Gonzalez, Gorzelanny, and Burnett. And cheaped out and stuck with Duke and HRod instead.

It's only 6-1, and we have 4 inning left to catch up, why is Duke still in the game?

spidernat · « **Reply #315:** May 11, 2013, 05:54:40 PM »

At least the Giants are leading the braves by the same score.

That really was an impressive meltdown, one for the ages.
It had everything. Routine grounder turned into error, walk of the #8 hitter, double to the pitcher, 0-2 count single up the middle.

5th   Edwin Jackson doubled [first career double] to deep right center, W Castillo and D Barney scored.
5th   A Rizzo singled to center, Edwin Jackson and D DeJesus scored, S Castro to third.
5th   Ian Desmond homered to center.
6th   A Soriano scored, N Schierholtz to second on wild pitch by Z Duke.   5   1
6th   C Ransom doubled to deep left, N Schierholtz scored.

Chicago Cubs 6
Washington Nationals 1

Rizzo really should have kept at least one of the three leftys. They were all much better than the options we have now.

I'll bet the tempers are very short in that dugout right now.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #319:** May 11, 2013, 05:55:52 PM »

I just don't understand for the life of me why Rizzo is so comfortable with having 2 guys in the bullpen that are terrible and are killing the team not only when they pitch but just the fact that they are taking up valuable roster space.

... between the hammies and ingrown toenails maybe they can fit some temper in.

Another 2 out dagger. Gotta love it.

Zach Duke - not a professional caliber pitcher. 8.40 ERA. I don't like his aurora either.
