Gordon and Gladden

just said Slowey is warming up and they are going to get started pretty soon.

Go Go goes

two run double for Gomez, Slowey gets out of a bases loaded jam by striking out Puhols and a terrific stab by Buscher for the the final out.

The only stat that counts is W

Ankial

It’s always an adventure with a flyball pitcher. At least we are still ahead for the moment.

Well Slowey had a good day at least,

I am not watching it, but I have it on the radio and it sounds like Slowey had a pretty good day overall. G & G said it was really good other than the one mistake to ankiel.

Final line was 6 innings, 8 hits, 2 runs no walks and 5 strikeouts. Not bad.

Dickey

What do you guys feel about the knuckleballer Dickey? He just pitched a good inning.

by ianmader on Mar 29, 2009 4:53 PM EDT reply actions  

he hasn't had a very good career to date,

but he has been having a pretty good Spring. Spring era of 2.63 but over what 10 or 12 innings?
In his career he is averaging an era of 5.57 over 300+ innings.

I think that his only chance is if Anderson, and other coaches/scouts are seeing something significant that suggests some improvement under Anderson’s coaching…

you might want to make that question a fanpost

you would likely generate a few comments from people who have some good opinions on Dickey, or on the pitching staff in general as we are getting closer to having to make a decision.

Joe Gaetti

I guess I have been under a rock, I didn’t know we had Gary’s son on our team.

That reminds me

watching Mijares reminds me of the old joke where the agent is negotiating with owner, “Sure the kid is a great pitcher. No matter where the other player holds his bat, he manages to hit it.”

I really hope he gets sent to Rochester to play himself back into shape.

The only stat that counts is W

Game

I was at the game today. It was pretty cool. Also really wet. Gomez was good. Slowey was great. Just a great day. That is all.
