Due to that great catch I will call him Nate instead of McOut for at least the next 2 innings.

McLouth has been getting it in center all year. Now he’s just got to get it at the plate. Great catch.

A play like that might Turn Nate Dawg around at the Plate or is that wishful thinking?

I have a feeling the guy making the racist comments when KK pitches is the same guy, just changing names and emails so that he cant get booted. Just try and ignore it. Im sure he is just trying to get a rise out of us…

It seems like KK has 1 inning in every start where he doesn’t have it together and then settles down. Hopefully the 1st was KK’s Slop inning?

Most 5th starters do. Hence the assignment of 5th starter. However, he IS better than the results have shown. Good point though, hopefully that was his inning of struggles…

Bottom line I want to get at here is instead of arguing with nobody or that one idiot who said “vacation”, why don’t you let us know what happened with Jurrjens MRI? — Chuck James was Solid Until the 6th
That’s the bottom line? For you, maybe. For me, the bottom line is, I’m not covering the team today, and was at the eye doctor getting fitted for new glasses and getting drops put in my eyes so my pupils would dilate for the vision test at about the time the clubhouse opened. So why would I have the info on J.J.? We’ve got two people covering the team today, Carroll and Chris Vivlamore, both at the ballpark and reporting any news about J.J. or anything else. As I said earlier, I wrote a Sunday story and had a half-day off today. Sorry that doesn’t sit well with you, Chuck.

It’s all good with me over here. I just wasn’t cool with you wasting your time off explaining yourself to the person saying you were on vacation. Kind of like now, you don’t need to explain yourself to us. Enjoy your time off. The only point I was making was if your going to write 3 paragraphs mine as well be about baseball instead of explaining to some fool that you’re not on vacation. Sorry if you took my tone wrong. That’s why I hate trying to convey my point over the computer.
Hope everything went well with your Eye Doctor and everything is cool. Enjoy your night off dude.

KK’s stats this year SO FAR have been garbage. He doesnt give up that many runs a game but he is not pitching enough innings.
One cannot assume that he would not be giving up more runs if he was staying in longer, hence the high ERA

Chuck James was Solid until the 6th!!! — Yeah, but remember Chip Caray is responsible for play-by-play stories. Sutton comments on plays. That’s 2 different jobs and, also, I don’t think you can compare TV with Radio. (I’m yet to listen to Chip on radio; don’t want to do it.)

You can’t help where it lands, ask Glaus… I’m just glad he sat back and rocket it. It’s very encouraging that’s for sure! Especially if Bobby will keep him in the 4-Hole.
Tomahawkin
Like we always say, it must be tough for the guy to be pitching down in the game every inning of his life. I would love to see his repetoire and game strategy on the road if they went up 5-0 or something in the top of the 1rst. But that wouldn’t be right, would it?

Sutton did TV on TBS for a looong time. He was solid. Carey just tries too hard and gets very annoying. I guess we were spoiled with Boog last year because listening to Chip becomes a chore tolerating him. This duo with Smoltz and Simpson is perfect for my liking. No painfully pathetic nicknames that only stick for 20 minutes and nobody laughs to begin with. Like ‘Sparky’ for Prado the other night when he hit in 5. That’s like what an 11 year old would come up with. He’s not the slightest bit funny. His Dad knew how to get laughs with the unintenional humor, the clever humor. Chip just lets it all out there and the results are always bad for him.
