Tim picks up right where he left off.. Lead-off walk of Reyes. Real smart

Nice to see Pena getting a shot at batting clean-up

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #3:** September 17, 2007, 07:10:19 PM »

and now he throws the ball into the outfield.. Redding is so damn bad. Mets are playing like absolute crap but I'm sure they'll easily sweep us.

This one's going to be over quickly tonight. The Nats must want us to be able to switch over to MNF without having to worry about the outcome of this game.

little league throw by Nook and the first run scores... Tim is worthless

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #6:** September 17, 2007, 07:13:49 PM »

and yet another base hit.. I was going to keep a tab on the Nats game during the Skins game but with this type of play, forget it.

0-2 count HR.. talk about completely freaking laying down. Mets just got swept yesterday and they are coming here from Philly. We are supposed to be the team that is amped up and kicking ass. What an easy sweep for the Mets.

PC · « **Reply #8:** September 17, 2007, 07:16:30 PM »

Didn't even think an 0-2 homerun was possible...

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #9:** September 17, 2007, 07:17:41 PM »

and another hit.. I would rather watch Bacsik pitch than this piece of trash. Can't wait till next year when Hanrahan, Redding, and Bacsik are all long gone.

Is Lopez done starting for the season?

Hopefully. Jimenez is outhitting him by a mile as of late.

With WMP strikeout propensity, I wouldn't have him hit cleanup.

Church must be going crazy watching Logan, Fick playing and he is sitting on the bench. Why play Logan when Church and Maxwell are better candidates for playing CF in the future. Logan had a chance to show his stuff this year and he is mediocre at best. Also why not play Langerhans or Batista at first. Haven't we seen enough of Fick this year(I know he hit a HR on Sat. but really)

Zimmerman has to be ashamed of himself striking out against Lawrence!

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #14:** September 17, 2007, 07:27:48 PM »

Well it looks like we are in for another shutout. No excuse for getting owned by Brian Lawrence

The Chief · « **Reply #15:** September 17, 2007, 07:29:51 PM »

I really hope we put up some numbers against Lawrence... it would be embarassing to let him have a good night even if his ERA *wasn't* 6+

PC · « **Reply #16:** September 17, 2007, 07:31:19 PM »

I have a feeling this one's going into the embarrassing loss column...

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #17:** September 17, 2007, 07:31:44 PM »

damn Redding looks "great".. What a freaking bum. Whenever we see the Mets/Phillies/Braves uniforms we just roll over and play like a bunch of cowards.

lmao, they can't even do a run down properly

PC · « **Reply #18:** September 17, 2007, 07:33:27 PM »

Ryan should have tackled him like he did in that other rundown.

I would not put Redding in that category. He has had 10 solid outings out of 12 and an ERA 3.42 starting the game. He also throws a rising fastball at 92-93. This start he is coming back from a bruised elbow so I would expect some rustiness. He has good stuff and I hope they sign him for a couple of years at least.
Hanrahan is another story. He does not have the mental discipline right now to pitch in the majors. He does have great stuff and is a rookie so I would not give up on him. Bascik is at best a spot starter but has done a great job in relief so I see a role in the bullpen for him next year possibly.

The Chief · « **Reply #20:** September 17, 2007, 07:37:23 PM »

Come on lets hang some crooked numbers on this guy!

Redding started hot but he has quickly fizzled out.
Last 3 starts: 11.1 IP 10 R 10 ER 2 HR 12 BB 4 SO (0-1, 7.94 ERA)

He walks way too many batters and leaves way too many pitches over the plate.

Kearns strikes out on an 84 MPH fastball and Belliard is swinging for the fences again

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #23:** September 17, 2007, 07:42:05 PM »

Fick overmatched on a couple of BP fastballs.. It's like we have no idea what kind of pitcher Lawrence is. They are expecting him to throw 95 mph with a 12-6 curveball

Need I say more...
