Dusty is the king of unnecessary double switching
He does realize that Weathers won’t bat in the AL, right? Why all of the sudden did Janish need to come in?

the same could be said about throwing to Ross at home

freaking weathers
errrr
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
I'd like to see him throw 118
so his arm would fall off and he couldn’t hurt us anymore
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
what was that
DFA Weathers now. And what was up with Ross on that? Catch the freakin ball
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
i agree with weathers
and while your right on ross i have a feeling not catching everyday (like he should) and the astro turf had something to do with that

maybe we can package him with Harang

Harang
Here are Harang’s last 8 starts, including tonight.
INN H ER BB K
5.1 10 5 2 7
4.0 2 0 1 9 WTF happened here? Rain?
4.0 10 6 0 2
6.0 9 3 1 4
5.1 11 7 0 4
7.0 4 1 0 7 Only win on this list
5.0 10 5 3 2
5.2 7 5 3 3 Tonight
That’s four 10+ hit games and one 9-hit game, and only once did he go more than 6 innings. I haven’t checked around the site yet, but does Slyde have a graph up yet for this?
the 4 inning shut out was the 18 inner against the Pads
Tanzen!

One trick pony.
After that first pitch, why doesn’t Dusty pinch hit for Hopper? The trick didn’t work.
hopper

See him what?
Burst into flames at home plate?
Treat the bat like a foreign object?
He’d have better luck walking up to the plate with one of Fistband’s chewing sticks rather than a Louisville Slugger.

Griffey could move over from DH, right?

Can't Griffey and someone else switch positions?
Like, say Dunn gets hurt. Can’t they take Dunn out, move Bruce to LF, move Griffey to RF, and have Bako or somebody DH?

No
You forfeit the DH if you do that.

I almost hope we lose
cause going extra innings would be devastating to the bullpen

We couldn't stock up on them like in years past
because of the bad excange rate.

wow
norris hopper needs to learn how to throw, and hit
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
no
but he threw it way wide of home, not even close

although to defend him
i forgot he had arm trouble…
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
His arm is still not 100%
They probably shouldn’t have activated him so soon.

Well,
we can’t complain about that.
Nice work.
Let’s get some hits.

the bat was flying at Stormy
and the runner was bearing down on Ross

dh question
The Designated Hitter may be used defensively, continuing to bat in the same position in the batting order, but the pitcher must then bat in the place of the substituted defensive player, unless more than one substitution is made, and the manager then must designate their spots in the batting order.
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
is hairston on the bench?
"God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. This is more important than anything I could do in baseball." -Albert Pujols
Griffey can be PH for. But if you put him in on “D” the pitcher must hit
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
no
if you put griff in the field the pitcher is hitting. The pitcher then takes the place of who ever in the line up. Only way around that is to double switch the other guy (presumably Hopper) out.
Either way the pitcher would be hitting the rest of the game
and we only have Bako left on the Bench. Ede if can swing a bat
Hope Springs Eternal! Go Reds
No
You can’t substitute someone else in at DH.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Crazy rules.
No wonder the NL doesn’t want to adopt this. The point of the DH was that the pitcher doesn’t bat, but if the DH switches positions, then the pitcher bats. Makes no sense.
Thanks for clearing this up, Caleb.

Are these Louisville Sluggers that keep shattering?

My guess is...
...maple. Which they want to ban, and probably should.

New headline:
“Minor leager traded for 10 maple bats. Bats later banned.”

It all comes back to 9.
(square one anyone?)

There was this segment on square one about multiples of 9.
4 * 9 is 36, 3 + 6 is 9
5 * 9 is 45, 4 + 5 is 9.
25 * 9 is 225, 2 + 2 + 5 is 9.
I guess what I was trying to say is it all comes back to Denny Neagle.

we gave him up for 12 starts in 99. then the guy was out of baseball after the next season

And we learned from that the following year, right?

A bunch of drunk interns though, since there was a free beer/wine bar at this thing. But since I was working (and with co-workers), I couldn’t partake of either the booze or the interns. Shame.
