Nationals @ Mets, Game 3

[sportsfan882]

Who cares that Zim plays good defense though? That ball probably goes over 50+% of the third basemen in the league's heads for a 2-run double.

Then set the pitch tracker to a marginally different strike zone at the beginning of the game.

Those fat, bloated old men behind the plate shouldn't be the focus of the game.

IMHO.

I'd hate that. I like the different strike zones; the human aspect of it all.

Who was that guy w/ the money pickoff move to second last season?

Jason Simontacchi.

you mean trying to fleece the team out of guaranteed money by lying about his health?

  Exactly

What are the OTHER "flavors?"  I MUST get some of this... is it bottled by the Joe Kennedy Moonshine Gang or does it have this emblem?

MACHINE GUN MELON, TSING TSING SOUR GRAPE , and ALCATRAZ SOUR APPLE. I believe there is another one but I can't find it or remember it. A bottle looks like this:

No one doubts his glove. The complaints are about his bat.

[ronnynat]

Jason Simontacchi.

That's right. One of the best pickoff moves to second that I've seen.

[kimnat]

Jason Simontacchi.

Oh my  gosh!  I totally forgot about him!

[sportsfan882]

Pena out on a 90 mph fast ball. He freaking blows.  He can't hit breaking balls nor fastballs.

[sportsfan882]

god damnit, this ump is ridiculous.

[ronnynat]

Pulled his head like a mofo there. I thought they taught people not to do that in Little League? Maybe that was just my league.

[spidernat]

Oh my  gosh!  I totally forgot about him!

I was hoping to do the same.

[MrMadison]

way to stay alive, Jesus.

[ronnynat]

I was hoping to do the same.

My bad.  

[sportsfan882]

good AB but the ump calls him out on some bullcrap off the plate.

[ronnynat]

Money pitch there.

[EmpireNat]

To hell with this, I'm of to bed, this is not worth staying up in the middle of the night.

I said we would plate a run in the 5th or 6th but it's probably going on 2 where you are.

[eagleskins]

Good at bat for Redding. 

[sportsfan882]

sigh. What other team in the Majors would have no runs against Vargas thru 5? This is a joke.  Most teams would have at least 3-4 off him by now.

half one now, and unless we get something going soon, it gets to the point of being absurd to be up at this time for any reason on a wednesday night/ thursday morning.

[ronnynat]

Our pitchers have better ABs than half the lineup. Maybe they should be higher in order. Flores definitely should be. Switch him and Dukes around.

What about AK? He is 0/2 tonight and has only seen 3 pitches. That's awful.

Your pic didn't show up, but I found this. CRIKEY!

That'd work, too. Sticking w/ batting orders that aren't producing makes no sense whatsoever. OK, I understand if you want the same guys out there, but why the same order?

[spidernat]

He better toss him!
