8/16: Open Game Thread

Tiny by Deanna on in Regular News Comment 378 comments

Roster Note: O'Flaherty up, Dobbs down. For one night and one night only, the Mariners have a lucky 13-man pitching staff. If you can't beat the A's with talent, beat them with superstition.

And so, we come back to the only Mariners pitcher to win a game against Oakland this year, as the A's faithful prepare for another rousing chorus of "BROOM! HERE COMES THE BROOM!"

Ready or not:

First Pitch: 7:05pm PDT

                   

Ichiro RF Kendall C Lopez 2B Kotsay CF Beltre 3B Bradley RF Ibanez LF Thomas DH Perez DH Chavez 3B Broussard 1B Payton LF Johjima C Swisher 1B Betancourt SS Scutaro SS Ballgame "CF" Ellis 2B ---------- ---------- Meche (9-7, 4.58) Haren (10-9, 3.58)

Meche: "Okay, guys, we're going to break this curse tonight.  Did you get everything I asked you to?"
Washburn: "Yeah, I went and hunted down a rabbit and cut off its foot."
Broussard: "I picked up a heads-up penny on the ground this morning and saved it for you."
Woods: "I drove out to a ranch and got some horseshoes."
Green: "I found a four-leaf clover!"
Johjima: "Meche-san, I bought you omamori from Shinto shrine."
Lowe: "I ripped the number 7 off of one of my jerseys."
Bloomquist: "I brought Fifi, my cat."
Washburn: "That's not a good luck charm!"
Meche: "Willie, you moron, that's a black cat!"
Bloomquist: "I also brought a mirror with me, but it broke when I tripped over a crack in the sidewalk going under a ladder on the way here."
Everyone: "AAUUUUGGGGHHHH!!"  [runs out of the clubhouse]

LET'S GO MARINERS!

O'Flaherty up, Dobbs down
according to USSM.

That's what Rotoworld says

I also love that they say "Joel will likely spend the rest of his career as a journeyman."

by kva15 on Aug 16, 2006 6:06 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

He needs to talk to Soriano
Raffy used to be an outfielder, maybe Joel can complete the circle and go the other way. He'd probably regularly miss the cut-off man by 20 feet, though.

by AnotherAaron on Aug 16, 2006 6:59 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

No
Pineiro's location would be dead on...he'd just flounder in the outfield with a Bloomquist like arm.

by Fuckmikereilly on Aug 16, 2006 7:00 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Speaking of this...
I've heard we had a outfielder in the low minors(Everett maybe) who had one of the best arms in the system, rivaling even Choo and Ichiro.  Unfortunately, he couldn't hit.  Anyone know his name?

I think it'd be interesting to see if he could pitch.  It's always an interesting idea, you just might catch lightning in a bottle, like with Soriano.

by Fuckmikereilly on Aug 16, 2006 7:02 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Haha
Quote from John Hickey:

"So he will pitch in long relief and work with pitching coach Rafael Chaves in an effort to find the stuff that made him one of the club's best prospects in 2000-01."

I think Joel would have more luck if he was looking with Morse.

by Fuckmikereilly on Aug 16, 2006 6:10 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Bad vibes
He'll do what he did last time: look dominant out of the bullpen, as he can throw as hard as he can when only throwing 5-15 pitches and add 5 mph to his fastball, and then they'll reinstall him as a starter, he'll suck again, rinse, repeat, because the Mariners are run by stubborn imbeciles.

They should recognize him for what he is and release his ass pronto.

Perez and Broussard?  Back-to-back?  Fun.

That's Fucking It!!!!!
Someone needs to kill Hargrove.  Now.  Didn't we get Perez to go against lefties and Broussard for righties?  Under the assumption that they both suck against their own handedness?  So why, in the name of the baseball gods does he put Perez ahead of Broussard against a Righty?  Am I crazy, or is Grover a bigger Fucktard Idiot than we all think?

by The Dude on Aug 16, 2006 6:37 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well Let's See
With Sexson (a veteran) being gone, the remaining bench players are Jones (a rookie), or Morse (a rookie, or near-rookie), or Rivera (the backup catcher and a sucking rookie).

Are we sensing a pattern here? What will be even more interesting is the in-game "managing." Let's see, will Grover use Jones to PH? Nooooooo. How about Rivera? Noooooo. So the only potential move is to PH Morse for Bloomie late in the game and then put Jones in CF for the last inning. Well, now that all the managerial moves for the night are decided (excpet when exactly to bring in Gas Can Mateo), we can safely kill Hargrove and hide the body.

Cool
I can't wait to watch him play again.

It's funny, though. I'm going to the Rainiers game tomorrow, just in time to miss him play there. Last time I went to a Rainiers game, it was the day that Everett was DFA'd and Snelling was up for a day, so I didn't get to see him then either.

There was an accident on the Ballard bridge and my normally 20-25 minute ride home took an hour and a half, so I just got home.

I'm in no fucking mood to watch the Mariners lose a game, but here I am in front of the TV anyway.  I predict I'll be pissed off and leave within an hour.

Or at least, I hate certain people who seem to be mailing it in now.  Pineiro and Meche have been, because if they suck at all they go crazy and stop trying.

Ichiro's not giving this team a chance to win.  Trading him would seriously be a great move.  He has so much value for a player who brings a fairly low OBP for his average and who just refuses to play unless they're within 5 games.

Betancourt, Lopez, Beltre, and Joh are all still out there to play.  I wish others would give them some support and at least try to make the best of this lost season.

I love Rotoworld.
Scott Feldman was ejected from Wednesday's game in the ninth inning for throwing it and hitting Adam Kennedy with a pitch.
Feldman responded after the Angels hit two batters -- at least one intentionally -- the previous half-inning. Kennedy charged the mound, and the 6-foot-5 Feldman continued to use his sidearm delivery to get in a couple of good shots at the shorter second baseman. He'll be facing a suspension, as will Kennedy and Kevin Gregg, who hit one of the batters the previous inning.

Angels = filthy villains.
