Milwaukee Brewers at Cincinnati Reds, May 7, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
|
|
|
After being thoroughly embarrassed last night, the boys look to get back on the winning track tonigh as our resident power bat off the bench faces off against a pitcher with the middle name of LaVerne.
Looper has pitched well against the Reds of late, going 4-1 with a 2.57 ERA since 2007. On the other side, Owings has not been good versus the Brewers in his career, as he's 0-3 with a 7.71 ERA in three career starts. (small sample size!) The Brewers beat the Reds 9-3 when the two faced off way back on April 15th.
The Brewers are 12-3 since April 22nd awhile averaging six runs a game. Maybe Ryan Braun will catch a cold from being out in the rain last night. A girl can dream, right? If not, maybe we can get Shadowhare to kidnap him until after the game.

The new
and probably not improved lineup, from the Fay:
Taveras 8
Hairston 6
Bruce 9
Phillips 4
Nix 7
Hernandez 3
Hanigan 2
Rosales 5
Owings 1
Votto is sick. It’s the first game he’s missed.

Votto gone and the 5th starter on the mound,
along with the fact that the Reds are friggin’ abysmal at home does not make me like our chances tonight.
But hey, I thought we’d win yesterday, so I’d love to be wrong again!

well
We got Nix instead of Dickerson, and Fay thinks it’s a long-term change.
Fay also reports that Janish’s arm didn’t fall off, despite throwing 35 pitches with a lot of 90 mph fastballs. He might not feel it until tomorrow.
Looks like the fans appreciated the effort, at least.
Either that, or his family came up for the night. You usually don’t see that kind of reaction for a pitcher with a ERA of 45.

Looking at this lineup
And I think Owings might be the most qualified to bat 5th. At least bat him seventh.
Ramon Hernandez at 1B? Hmmm.

Nix LF
Rosales 3B
Hanigan C
Janish SS
Owings P
The bench tonight is McDonald and Dickerson, and that’s it.

They gotta DL A-Gon. This is ridiculous. They’re going to end up using a pitcher as a position player or something.

Janish – 25 starts at SS

They announced the new lineup with Votto out around an hour ago, and the minus-BP lineup a little more than 20 minutes ago. Still, it’s inexcusable that they don’t have anyone on their way up from Louisville right now.

they might be available to pinch hit
Last year, Doug Mientkiewicz was sick with the flu. The Pirates ended up having to use him, even though he was sick as a dog. They sent him in in the ninth, and he looked terrible. His eyes were glazed. Still, he almost beat the throw to 1B…but then took a full minute to slowly stagger back to the dugout. He looked completely dazed.
Worse, the game went to extra innings, and he ended up having to play defense five innings.
OTOH, they might not want BP and Votto in the dugout at all, in case they’re contagious. The Yankees usually send sick players back to the hotel, so they don’t spread their germs.

at least Janish has demonstrated that he’s a decent replacement for Gonzalez for the next couple of weeks. So assuming whatever hit BP and Votto is temporary, why not DL Gonzalez and give him time to rehab?

Jeff Niemann pitching for Tampa tonight
The dude is immense. 6’-9", 280 lbs.
He was a first round draft pick out of Rice, the same year as Janish. I would guess he’s one of the reasons they moved Janish from pitcher to SS.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?

Ali Boombaye
by Cy Schourek on May 7, 2009 7:31 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Along with Wade Townsend and Phil Humber, yeah.
Those two along with Niemann were hugely hyped first-round picks when they came out of Rice at about the same time. Humber and Niemann went 3rd and 4th overall, respectively, in the 2004 draft and Townsend was 8th overall in 2005. Humber looks unlikely to ever be more than a spot-starter in the majors, Townsend hasn’t been able to stay healthy and probably won’t ever make it to AAA, and Niemann has barely stuck around in Tampa and probably won’t be there much longer, though he should be a serviceable starter somewhere.
So yeah, I’d say Rice had plenty of reasons to not keep Janish as a pitcher.

that Rosales would have raised his hand first. That’s because he’s a gamer and he loves baseball.

There was a Bleacher Report post about Pedroia’s stature that throws the whole racial bias thing into relief. There are black and latino players who are about the same height and don’t get credit for being short and scrappy.

I’m glad Dusty wasn’t going to leave him out there forever. 35 pitches is kind of a lot, even for a regular reliever.
Any guesses on who would have raised his hand first?
You gotta think Dusty would go with an infielder, though. They usually don’t put outfielders on the mound, because they’re not used to how fast the balls gets to you in the infield.
And I don’t believe Dusty would let one of his young stars pitch. It’s usually a reserve guy. A Janish or Swisher, not a Votto or Bruce.

Why risk injury to your franchise player?
I don’t think it would be Dickerson, either, because he’s an outfielder. Even if he pitched in high school or college, the balls are lot faster in the big leagues. If there’s a comebacker, he’ll be looking up waiting for the ball to fall from the sky…when it clocks him in the chin. ;-)
McDonald, maybe. He’s got a hell of an arm. And he plays infield as well as outfield.

Yeah, he's looked impressive at first.
He saved that throw that Janish totally blew, too.

So why do they even have Jim Day?
He shows up what, once a game? He makes some remarks that aren’t remotely funny, and then they put him back in hiding.

I'm rec'ing this because it's 100% true.
Although he’s there pre- and post-game. Still terribly unfunny.

Jim Day was sitting alone in the outfield, being an idiot.
Thom and Cowboy asked him if he saw any singles, so he yelled down at a group below him. Then they started going on about how he should hit on this woman who is clearly much younger than him…
And Jim Day is awkward even without all of that.
Oh, and eventually he persuaded a woman to come up and sit with him, and she clearly wanted to run as soon as she got up there. Thom and Cowboy once again wouldn’t shut up.

He has a certain Snagglepuss quality that seems appropriate

Until the last run scored
Thom and Cowboy seemed to think the Reds had a 10 run lead and the win was a formality.

I'm really glad someone explained this.
I was at a bar, Reds on tv, but no sound… I look up see all of this and had NO CLUE what was going on. I thought the game had to be over they didn’t show anything for so long.
