GO D'BACKS!


(Cut me some slack on the picture posting, i'm a noob here!)

 

[Mulli]

Cubs' outfielder Angel Pagan. Great name.

 

[Mulli]

1-0 Cubs end of 4th. RBI single by Jacque Jones.

 

[Mulli]

2-1 Dbacks. 2 run HR by Chris Young.

 

[Stallion]

2-1 Dbacks. 2 run HR by Chris Young.

Chris crushed that one. Go Snakes!

 

[Mulli]

RBI singles by Amorous Mamourous and JAcque Jones. Cubs up 3-2 in 7th.

 

[Mulli]

6-2. Game over. Now I will be stuck in traffic since the game ended before I left work.

 

[Shzm13]

4.5 out of first place.. That gap doesn't seem to be getting closer any time soon.

How many more losses til we ship Byrnsie and Orlando out of here for prospects?

 

[Stan C]

What exactly do you see in the "prospects" we have playing for us now (Quentin, Young, Jackson, Drew, Montero)? All sure fire All stars was all I read. They all tore up trple A, and now they all hit between .220 and .240 90 games into the season. I still have hopes for Young (obvious power and fielding) and Drew, but I can't see why so many want to get more "potential". We need a couple "can dos" while we wait for our current crop of prospects.

You can never ever ever have enough pitching


If we're not even going to try and get anybody, why keep Byrnes and Orlando around?

We could end up with a higher pick in the draft next year...

 

[JS22]

Game. Set. Match.

Season over. Let's bring up Upton so Melvin can ruin him too!

 

[Dback Jon]

Aramis Ramirez is a punk.

It's Seitzer I was worried about..


What ever happened to Wally Backman? He ever get his legal mess cleared up?

If so, i'd welcome him on the team.

 

[Dback Jon]

Great pitching by the Bullpen - Cruz especially!!

 

[mjb21aztd]

great win by the dbacks good pitching by the bull pen this afternoon and a great hr by drew he needed it. Now lets go and take the game tommrow and start a winning streak

 

[Shzm13]

Just hope our BP plays as good as they did yesterday.

 

[Shzm13]

Also, Gracie said something about Cruz that i really hadn't noticed before.. The guy's only 28. He's been inconsistent, but very solid as of late.

 

[mjb21aztd]

nice leadoff double by conor jackson hopefully we can bring him home here in the 6th, damn failed to bring conor jackson in from 2nd with 0 outs...oh well hopefully we can continue the good pitching

 

[JS22]

Ok, hold on.

Petit is pitching a 3 hit shutout and they pinch hit for him in the top of the 7th, right after Snyder nails a solo HR to make it 2-0? WHY? Let him pitch another inning or 2, then give it to Valverde.

Hopefully the reliever doesn't come in and blow this game.

His wrist has been swelling, and one of his biggest knocks so far in the minors (and limited big league time) is that he essentially hits the wall around 100 pitches.

 

[mjb21aztd]

nice 3-0 lead for the dbacks in top of the 8th hopefully we can hang on would be two big wins in a row

 

[mjb21aztd]

my god I want to kill that guy whos screaming sounds like he is saying hudson as loud as he can what a annoying sob lol

 

[mjb21aztd]

nice series for the dbacks taking 2 of 3 from the cubs pitching was awsome today

 

[MaoTosiFanClub]

Nice road series win against a hot team.

Gotta win both series at home this week.

 

[Stallion]

Yee-ha! Great pitching the last 2 days. Very nice series win.

Go winning record.
