We will be there tomorrow. I figured the 4.2 mile Pat's Run was enough for my 67 year old body today. Yeah, that's the cap I wore to our SB.

Dbacks with bases loaded the first inning and get zilch. Second inning, runners on first and second and zilch. Gotta get some of these runners home.

No they cannot for the continuity of the team. It has to be demoralizing to the team to watch Godley allow 4-5 runs within the first three innings every time he's on the mound. Throw him in the pen and bring up Duplantier.

Man, you guys are a tough group. Based on what’s been posted we should get rid of Godley, Greinke and Torey. Settle down, it is a marathon not a sprint.

When was the last time Godley had a good start?

And he’s a total head case. He had the whole off season to figure out how to throw to base and he still can’t do it.

Ok, that sentence makes no sense.

I was talking about the PEDs.

Edit: you changed it but it still makes no sense.

It was in reponse to your comment: I’m surprised they’re pimpin Gonzos stats. I thought that was a sleepin dog they were gonna let lie.

It makes perfect sense to me. It has to do with him cheating. Cheating is cheating, regardless. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

Oh yeah, I get that but I thought it was a secret rule in the organization to not talk about his stats.

Godley does not deserve to be in the starting rotation of a team striving to stay over .500.

5 runs on 4 hits and 4 walks in 2 2/3 innings destroys the bullpen, especially following the
previous night when Robbie Ray pitched only 5 innings.

And Koch, having to come in early for Godley, then gives up 4 runs on 8 hits in the next
4 1/3 innings.

Godley should be dropped, if for no other reason, as you pointed out, than his inability to
throw accurately to any base. In his previous game, he was afraid to throw a comebacker
to 2B for an easy double play and underhanded a toss to 1B, allowing the runner to move
into scoring position.

Godley in an incomplete pitcher and an extremely unreliable starter. There's no justification
for leaving him in the starting rotation of, for that matter, on the Major League roster.

He also said that Koch did not hit Bote on purpose, reiterating that thr Diamondbacks do not play "old school baseball" and do not throw at batters on purpose
