Batista
Webb
Dessens/Good

Scratch Dessens from my projected rotation - he belongs in a long relief role, or possible emergency starter; he is too much like Anderson/Helling/Albie to leave him in the rotation.

Counsell flies out. 4-1 Padres

 

[Dback Jon]

Lets see what Elmer does this inning.

 

[AZCB34]

1-2-3 inning for Dessens. How about we chisel a bit at this lead?

Can someone tell me why with the current success of the Diamondbacks and there rookiew, why a team like the Cubs or Dodgers who have great pitching is not will get get rid of the over the hill guys like Troy O'leary and Lenny Harris(BA 167) and give the kids a chance wince they are suppose to have 2 of the best fram systems in all of baseball.

 

[AZCB34]

Bases loaded. Q up to bat. I think Moeller must have walked.

Dodgers USED to have a great farm system. It is mighty barren these days, has been for a few years.

Q grounds out to 1B. 4-2 Padres

Dessens has settled down the past two innings - time for another run or two from the D'Backs...

Not getting a hit hurts. Not only did we leave 3 men on base, Elmer leads off the next inning.

 

[AZCB34]

Have to bail out here guys. Dbacks are coming up I think. Cmon, lets get a couple here and make it a new ballgame.

 

[IndyDevil]

*d'oh*

Looks like I spoke too soon...time for Elmer to leave!! I hope Myers can stem the tide a little.

Our timely hitting sure would be....well, very timely right about now - too many runners left on base already!

 

[Dback Jon]

Dang it Myers - throw a strike. He's a pitcher!
