Bronson Arroyo, 13-9, 3.42 ERA vs Jeff Manship, 0-4, 6.86 ERA.

This guy we're facing has awful stats. 21 IP, 22 hits, 16 runs allowed.

Still, Bronson at Coors isn't ever going to make me feel comfortable.

Need a sweep in this series, as we know that either STL or PIT is going to lose everyday.

I'm not big on saying a series is a must sweep but I absolutely feel that way for this series. Our next 7 games after this series are 4 with the Cards then 3 with the Dodgers. Need to be playing VERY well going into those series or we're just going to fall farther and farther behind with only a month left.

Bruce goes 2-4 w 5 RBI in the 4 hole so lets put him back at 5. Only scored 10 runs that game. Might as well change it up and find something that works!

Not allowed to bat lefties back to back.

He should also start every game Ludwick, Bruce or Choo doesn't start too. However, you know he'll get like 12 at bats in 25 games and then Dusty will say that come postseason time, Derrick Robinson and Xavier Paul bring a lot more experience to the table.

Based on last night's results, maybe that rule should only apply when the opposing starter is a lefty.

Sigh Choo. Can definitely chip back into this one, but that was a big missed opportunity.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLL what a joke. Here comes 2-8 in our next 10 which will probably put the Dbacks 3 games back and plenty of confidence to finish the season strong.

For as blah as the Rockies are, they're surprisingly good at home, which makes them annoying as fuck to play. I remember a few weeks ago when the Pirate went there, I was thinking sweep or at the worst, 2/3. And then they tagged Liriano for 10 runs in 2.2 (or was it 2.1?) innings and next thing I knew, it was a sweep but by the wrong team.

Bunch of fucksticks...

Reynolds badly wanted to quality for the win by getting thru 5 innings -- so bad he took the pop-up for the 3rd out right away from Phillips!
