AdrianneLove Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Good game all around. Another great outing for Hendrickson. Great hitting, including 3 jacks. Who says the fish can't do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeLowell Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This team is so fun to watch. Our offense is insane, the starting pitching is starting to pick it up and our bullpen is great. Keep making everyone at ESPN look like fools guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Really good to see Uggla have a couple of good games in a row with the bat. It's pretty astonishing really that we've gone 12-7 getting next to nothing after Olsen & Hendrickson. That's a testament to our bullpen and the way the guys have been swinging the bats early on. If another of our starters can get on track, look out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee Ball Bunt Machine Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Who says the fish can't do it? "Experts" Good game. Third multi-hit game in a row for Uggla, looks like he's picking it up. Nice to bring the HRs overall though I hope we can bring just as much when playing the other NL east teams besides Washington. Oh yeah, and it's always nice to see any pitcher (of ours) have a multi-hit game. And a leadoff double and an RBI single no less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammerhead Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Hendrickson was only a .071 lifetime hitter before this game. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'm happy for Uggla, he is close to be the man from last year. Although he is still striking out a lot. He should be more patient on the plate. It's weird, half of the rotation can pitch 6/7 innings (Olsen and Hendrickson), the other half is not able to throw strikes. Oh, the Mets did not win. Neither the Phillies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'd just like to see us beat up on some better teams instead of Washington and Pittsburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee Ball Bunt Machine Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'd just like to see us beat up on some better teams instead of Washington and Pittsburgh. While I feel the same, I'm glad we are playing the teams we are while our pitching is so shaky. I'd rather have at least the prospect of getting some of our pitchers back by the time we have to face stronger teams. Plus I think it gives the hitters a lot of confidence they will be able to take into those games. Plus a division lead never hurts, and puts more pressure on the other teams.

Nico Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Whe should have a solid 3rd starter asap. We will not be able to beat the Mets, the Cards or the D-backs with this guys. Is it craaaaazy to move Pinto to a starting role? Now I'm missing Jason Vargas and Yusmeiro Petit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Didn't Matt Morris used to be good? What happened? he hasn't had an ERA under 3 since 2003. Seems to be losing his stuff as he ages... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it craaaaazy to move Pinto to a starting role? Now I'm missing Jason Vargas and Yusmeiro Petit. Jason who? Yusmeiro who? A guy who isn't even in the big leagues (Vargas), and the DBacks long reliever who currently has an ERA over 6 (Petit). Wow...I'd rather have Nolasco and Badenhop. Just watch Nolasco and Badenhop, and be patient. Miller...who knows? Personally, I think Miller still needs to develop in the minors. As for Pinto, he's very valuable from the pen.

Erick Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Positives 1. Hendrickson goes 8 innings, and gives us a quality start. 2. The bats were amazing...Uggla and Rabelo had some really good swings tonight...great sign, since they had been struggling. Now 3 games for Uggla performing well, and being more patient at the plate. :thumbup 3. Lindstrom looked awesome in the 9th inning. Negatives 1. Pittsburgh fans have really done a lot of suffering the past 15+ years. I feel bad for them...it's actually a GREAT sports city. Then again, it has nothing to do with our team, so whatever. *I'm now 10-3 on the gamethreads.* W00T! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know both of them are not aces. But Nolasco has a 6.46 ERA, The Hopper a 7.00 and Miller a 9.68. I was just thinking of possible starters that we let go. Petit was traded for Julio... And where is Byung-Hyun Kim? I do not like him, but he can be the 5th starter until the others get ready. Oh, I forgot Jason Wood, he pitched one perfect inning last year.

Be patient with our young pitchers. The pitchers we have now have much more potential than Yusmeiro Petit. And Jason Vargas? He sucks. Period.
