Well, my family all went to Purdue, so...

I'm really sorry to hear that

7-3?!

That's a good cushion for another inning of Redding, I hope.

Harris knocks in another!!! This is awesome! We beat the living crap out of one of the best starters in the NL!

I could see Bonifacio easily getting 10 triples in a full season.

Isn't it nice to score a lot of runs on a semi-regular basis?

again...someone said something about Nationally Televised Embarrassment?

Heh, I unfortunately don't live in Indiana anymore. My favorite football team is the Colts, my baseball team is the Nats, and my basketball team is the San Antonio Spurs. And I don't currently live in any of those places. Makes a lot of sense, right?

I can't believe we finally figured out how to hit a sinker.

Makes the games so much more enjoyable. It's also refreshing seeing all of the young guys produce.

I could see him getting 6 or 7 this season. Most players don't turn that hit into a triple.

I would like to see him get an inside the park hr

I know it's early, but remember how many people were crapting there pants about trading Rauch for Bonifacio (FMF), where are they now?

houston-nat · « **Reply #266 on:** August 04, 2008, 10:58:54 pm »

I think Steven Register was called up either today or yesterday.

Nah, I said after Redding got out of the 2nd that we averted said embarrassment.

I agree that we are cursed, but do we have any idea how or why we are cursed? The Sox had the Babe Ruth curse, while the Cubs had the goat curse or something. What the hell did we do wrong?

The curse of Even-God-Hates-JimBo.

I think a lot of people overvalued Rauch, but who would have thought that Bonafacio would be this good this soon?

Easily a possibility with Bonifacio, wouldn't be surprised at all if he got one.

QFT. They were pathetic. Relievers are a dime a dozen. How can you condemn a player before you even see him play?

I sat on the fence on that deal, because I wasn't sure that we got appropriate value for Rauch, and everything I read about the kid from the DBacks side indicated that he was a spare part.

so color me pleasantly surprised.

Certainly not the "baseball experts" on various websites who all but wrote this trade off as a steal for the Dbacks.
