Open Thread and Ichthyomancy: Marlins at Giants (7/27)
Florida Marlins at San Francisco Giants, Jul 27, 2010 10:15 PM EDT
The Marlins are looking to secure a split of the series tonight.
Josh Johnson takes the hill for the Marlins. JJ has been outstanding in his recent trips to the mound. In his last outing he ran into trouble with the pitch count and ended up throwing 120 pitches in just 6.1 innings. But that happens when you are striking everyone out. Hopefully the Giants won't do to JJ what they did to Ricky, i.e. foul everything off.
Matt Cain is on the mound for the Giants. In Cain's last outing he went 8 innings, allowing 0 runs on just 3 hits. The Marlin saw him earlier in the season and all he did was pitch 7 innings of 3 hit, 2 run ball. Hopefully the Fish learned something from that. I mean something other than walking back to the dugout shaking their heads.
Ichthyomancy is ready for round two of Midnight Baseball.
Best of Luck to You!

And Bonifacio...well, he's done it before, at least
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
The offensive contributions are about equal, but yeah, defensively, Helms is much better
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
Cliff Lee has 114 Ks...to 7 walks after tonight's 9 inning performance
That’s just…insanity.

Huff and Posey ARE the Giants offense
Torres has been doing well lately, but really, those two are the key to the offense.

actually they must have combined mine with someone else
cause it wasn’t exactly what I said—evidently they got several about Tommy’s leather jacket
ugh
ive got this feeling……

But at the same time...
Him struggling still looks much better than most guys when they have their best stuff.

JJ needed that quick inning
Now let’s go offense, thanks.

Cain's losing his control a bit
Now’s the time to jump on him!
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
Stanton with a 4-pitch walk...
I don’t want to get too optimistic with this offense, but…
JJ going to put it in cruise control
Cain looked pretty shaky there

JJ's making good pitches
But the Giants are making good swings to put them in play. It’s just one of those days.

he is on a tear right now
just sucks most of his shots have been solo
ginats announcers
are just slobbering over how cain is mad at cody for the “bat toss”
Japan. Been there since March.
Very nice place, but Marlins games start here at about 8 o’clock in the morning, which is not at all convenient.
you should recruit some japanese arms while you're there
our bullpen will be thankful!
It is a nice place to live if you don't mind living in small apartments.
I’m having very mixed feelings about having to come back in mid-August…
So the ‘dc’ part of dcfish means the Districk of Confusion?

stupid rockies fans at purple row
rockies now 2-10 since all star break with a loss today..
..serves them right!!
roxgirl tried to boot me when i went there to say hi during marlins-rockies series
it was the game JJ pitched
That's weird.
I have been over there on many occasions and they have always been nice to me. Maybe they were just having a bad day.
i was nice at first but then they started making fun of fishstripes
and marlins fan population in general.. so i started telling them how many rockies JJ had struck out everytime he would get a K..
..and ofcourse that didnt go along well with anyone and just seemed to piss them off more!!
and then i left!
just saying i wasnt on here because no one was ever visits fishstripes
and how their stadium sells out every game, blah! blah! blah!
..i wonder how much its selling out now with their 2-11 record, it was COMPLETELY empty the 3 marlins games i went to in april.. the doubleheader had maybe 20% full and next day was maybe 30% full at best!
funny thing is i live a stone's throw away from coors..
..literally.. my apartment complex wall borders coors fence.. and i generally root for the rockies all season except for the 6-7 games against the marlins..
..but havent really felt like rooting for/watching the rockies at all since purple row experience.. i mean they were really classless!!
seems like jj
is throwing a lot of off speed pitches… esp for a guy that throws 95
This is probably JJ's worst outing since the beginning of the season
Still, a 7 inning QS is nothing to sneeze at.
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
Yeah, I think he's still trying to get back into rhythm following the All-Star game
Wainwright and Jimenez have also struggled a bit since.
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
pitch count so overblown
that equates to only 16 pitches a IP
im surprised they didnt send cain back out there
he was only at 98
and theres the marlins bullpen
why must we suffer?

This is getting to be ridiculous
Is some consistency too much to ask for?
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
you can literally see it on all the marlins players faces
they know the pen is awful & can see it coming too
I have 1:30 in the afternoon...
But I’ll accept the sentiment.
Finally, that mess is over...
A serious rally is needed.

That's what MLB pitching looks like, LoMo
Sorry you had to see Wilson so soon…
Chris Coghlan is NLRoY 2009 (that's a +1 for me!)
thats what a MLB bullpen looks like
romo/wilson and company
he has to get some work in
cause he never throws more than a few pitches before he’s pulled back out for blowing the game
yet another solo shot...
we need people to get on base before danny goes up!! his last 4 have been solo shots i think
