Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Rockies at Marlins (8/1)
Colorado Rockies at Florida Marlins, Aug 1, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
The Marlins are going for win number two in the four-game set.
Volstad's first win in the majors came against Colorado in two-innings of relief at Coors Field. He is a sinker ball pitcher and does require some help from his friends, who, up to this point, have been happy to pitch in.
Jimenez throws hard. Which isn't bad news, but it may take the Fish one time through the order to get the timing down. You would have to go back to June to find the last time he didn't have a quality start. Jimenez is a sinker, curve, fast ball pitcher and much like all the Rockies pitchers, he is on a roll.
Ichthyomancy is pretending like it is ready. Best of Luck to You!

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

Holy cow!!
What a catch by Willingham, flipping over the bullpen gate. That’ll be a Web Gem!

Is MLB.TV not working for anyone else....
or is it just me?

Jacobs goes after two pitches in teh dirt
then misses one right down the middle… why didn’t we trade him for molina again?
craig – you don’t want to be watching this…

and how about Hanley?
two errors, no hits, just struck out with the bases loaded.
talk about a buzzkill.

Why is Dave talking about a possible Marlins forfeit on the radio?
What happened?
by craig on Aug 1, 2008 9:00 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
uh...nothing...
that certainly doesn’t relate to anything we’re seeing on TV. I would just ignore it…maybe it was part of some hypothetical banter or something.

OMG....

At least the Mets and Phils lost
