Dukes is a stud. 3/3

awful. We should have scored a bunch more off of Hampton. It will likely prove costly because Redding will give it up.

back, not many on today...

Need runs. Nice to see Hinckley warming up. We need to get a lot of looks at him before the end of this season.

Yeah, because if we don't keep him on the 40-man he is a FA right? Same with Speigner and a few of the others too I think.

We've only seen Hinckley once but I think I'd prefer him over Manninng.

Chipper is a lazy, selfish reject.

Great hustle by Bonifacio!

Perfectly placed, Anderson Hernandez!

PatsNats28 · « **Reply #32:** September 06, 2008, 08:52:52 PM »

Interesting that Redding gets a "quality start".

IMO, quality starts should be min 6 innings, min 2 runs... especially in the NL.

EDIT: Sorry, I forgot 1 run was unearned.

Hell of a great job manufacturing a run there.

Man, is he for real? He's been hitting well, but I'm not sure if we should commit to him. What do you guys think?

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #35:** September 06, 2008, 08:54:49 PM »

Redding is what he is. A 4.50 ERA pitcher. #4-5 at best. Nothing to be ashamed in like I have said before.

Last 3 starts:
6 IP 2 ER
6 IP 3 ER
5.2 IP 3 ER

Solid bench player that is fairly young (25). Can't believe they actually gave us a decent player for crappy Ayala.

Yeah, that's why we need to see if he is really back to something worth keeping around. We need lefty relievers. Manning is ok to come in to face that one batter, but he has struggled more than he should have, and is useless against righties.

shoeshineboy · « **Reply #39:** September 06, 2008, 09:01:21 PM »

That's not a balk.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #40:** September 06, 2008, 09:01:43 PM »

BS balk call. Nice play Guz.

shoeshineboy · « **Reply #41:** September 06, 2008, 09:02:19 PM »

Good thing it wasn't Manning facing all those righties.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #42:** September 06, 2008, 09:02:34 PM »

Nice job Mike.

PatsNats28 · « **Reply #43:** September 06, 2008, 09:02:37 PM »

Dammit, SD is down 1-0 in the bottom of the 8th. We can't afford a WAS W + SD L.

UUUGGH, why do we keep winning? Please! Can't even lose right!

Yeah, it's tobacco. The Braves' pitcher Jeff Bennett. Looks like a moron.

Not many pitchers chew... more batters than pitchers.
