Shumway Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 A bit off topic from the World Series, but I don't feel like diggin up the MLB thread, or starting an MLB offseason thread.Anyways, the Angels exercised options on John Lackey and Vlad, but not on Garret Anderson. I'm a bit upset to see GA leave, but, well, losing him frees up a fair amount of money, I'm assuming to sign Mark Teixiera. Looks like Juan Rivera's gonna start. FINALLY.

FINALLY.Any word on if GA is going to return for a lower price?If not, at least Rivera will be in there. GA's been slowing in recent years, so this will be a benefit in disguise.

GA's been slowing in recent years, so this will be a benefit in disguise.I'm hoping he will return at a lower price, being that GA in another uniform is just blastphemous. He's still productive, but not what he was 5 years ago or so....it seems like the 2nd half of the year belongs to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Madson vs. Balfour. Jenkins batting for Hamels to lead off the bottom of the 6th....PLAY BALL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Anyone think this game ends before 11pm ET? Not me.Is the weather supposed to get bad by then?It could end before then, the Rays bullpen has been a bit shaky. And the Phillies bullpen is great at shortening games... well, they only need to shorten a 3 inning game if they can score early.Jenkins leads off with a double. Rollins bunts him over.

Cujo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Jenkins leads off with a double. Rollins bunts him over.Philly has a runner on 3rd with less than 2 outs. We all know what's been happening in this situation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 It wouldn't be the '08 World Series if Tampa didn't put the leadoff hitter on.So Philly win = worse fan riot than '84 Detroit?

Swiss Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Man, oh, man, the Phillies' fans are very, very anxious...!!!BTW, what an error from Iwamura!!! One can smell a World Series championship right now. It's great to be young and a Giant! - Larry Doyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Iwamura kind of sucks, eh?I get why Iwamura was moved off the hot corner to make room for Longoria, but happened to Upton playing 2B for Tampa? Was he that much worse?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he that much worse??Upton moving may have had more to do with Upton's range/arm in CF. Upton still doesn't take the best routes to balls, though, and he has a tendency of half-assing it to the ball (and by 'has a tendency', I mean he does it every freakin' time), but his speed keeps an awful lot of balls from dropping.Though he did have a .952 F%, which is very, very below average, but he had above average range.

Swiss Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Wow, that Wertz was called safe at 2B. I thought he couldn't reach there. It's great to be young and a Giant! - Larry Doyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Wow, that Wertz was called safe at 2B. I thought he couldn't reach there.Yeah, not exactly a good sign when you can't even get the runner on a successful pick-off play.The Phillies are now 8 outs away. Rocco with a solo-shot. 3 all.
