we got a half way decent one hes just hurt

Eddie Guardado is a place holder until we can find somebody who is ready to take the job. I don't think he is the answer.

Matt Belisle.

Ahh Matt Belisle. You will either see a tremendous effort, or 2 innings of some poor guy getting shelled. There really isn't much in between with him.

but we still don't have a closer.

I do. They are certainly an improvement over the ice cream vendor unis they have worn in the past.

 

[emainvol]

Yeah, at least we aren't wearing those sleeveless atrocities anymore

never said he was the answer. just said he was half way decent which is a hella lot better than anything we got right now.

Well, it would be nice to win 6-7 out of their first ten.

bill bray will eventually take it over.

That doesn't make me feel any better.

ahhhhh.....the Fulmer mantra

 

[emainvol]

it depends, he has good stuff, i think he has the tools to be a pretty good closer, we just don't have much of a history of developing pitching.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

Homer Bailey!.......

 

[emainvol]

Homer Bailey!.......

i hope he can be ready to come in and bolster our starting staff by mid to late season, I just don't want to rush him up

Good win on a night fit only for polar bears and penguins.

 

[emainvol]

Geez hat, how good did Matt Belisle look? I hope he can give us some more solid starts this year.

[vols kick balls]

woot woot.

He pitched exceptionally. Threw strikes and had a really good slider. With efforts like last night, he'll win a good number of games this year. Now, we get to see if he can establish some consistency.

What happened to Todd Helton?

 

[vols kick balls]

from what i can tell this has been a crazy game so far today

 

[emainvol]

And this one belongs to the Reds!

 

[Cincy Vol o5]

did hat go to the game today

 

[hatvol96]

did hat go to the game today

Yes, I'm still thawing out. If any VN members are in the Cincinnati area tomorrow, I have an extra ticket for the game. Today was the second most uncomfortable day I've had at a sporting event. Only the January 1, 2001 Cotton Bowl was worse.
