I thought the same thing. But he wouldn't have been calmly discussing that on the mound a few pitches before, I wouldn't think. Telling Willie and the trainer, "I really have to poop badly." "Well, Victor, get this last batter out and then we'll let you go potty."

And Fortunado is in the house? Is that correct?

Yancy Street Gang
May 06 2006 02:04 PM

Watching the replay it looked like Zambrano charged for the dugout before he even saw the result of the pitch. If it had been grounded back to the mound he wouldn't have been there to field it.

If it was an elbow twinge, or something like that, I'd imagine that he'd shake his head and start walking back to the dugout. That immediate sprint was way strange.

Yahoo sorts is reporting that Zambrano left the game because of a right elbow injury. This is one game where the bullpen is stretched so thin that the team was depending on him to gut it out and eat some innings.

I could say something here about him leaving the game with a "tummy ache" not being possible because he has never shown any guts. But I won't.
Oh, wait. I just did.

it should probably go elsewhere, but if they DON'T start thinking about stretching Heillman out to go as a starter when they might be going to the 8th/9th starting pitcher on our depth chart it's just pig headedness.

We might get lucky and Lima etc might throw a decent start or two but I just don't get why we can't bring up the likes of Bell and put Heillman back in the rotation.

Edgy DC

I disagree, Heilman is far more valuable as a reliever, no matter who the starting pitching is.

Who cares if we are going to the 8th or 9th starter on the DC if we are leading the NL in victories and ERA.

May 06 2006 07:34 PM

Wow. What a great game to see in person! It was a beautiful day at the park and after last night's 14-inning game, all 45K+ fans were pretty spunky. Some dude in a Pujols jersey caught Franceour's HR, which prompted a stadium-wide chant of "Throw it back." The Evil Redbirds fan refused, and was treated to some good-natured heckling from my secion throughout the rest of the game. A tennager in a Crawford jersey was interviewed by the female SNY reporter in our section, and he got a little ribbing too, as peeps in our section started a "Take it off!" chant (refering to the kid's jersey, not the reporter, you lecherous pervs).

Zambrano looked filthy in the first. His fastball had some serious giddyup, topping out at around 92 according to the park gun. He sprinted off the mound into the dugout right after K'ing Larry looking at the end of the first. When he did the same thing after getting Andruw looking, the dude next to me was convinced it was food poisoning.

Elbow trouble sounds bad to me. If he's out for any length of time, I think we need to put Heilman in there. I suppose Maine & Bannister could round out the rotation, but I'd rather see Heilman take it on.

Hudson was definitely off today. His fastball sat between 88 & 90, topping out at 92 and he hardly threw his slider at all. Oliver's fastball had some nice late downward movement on it today and he looked sharp. He really came out of nowhere, didn't he?

I'm pretty sure Andruw was taken out of the game because he dogged it to first on his DP ball in the 6th. He wasn't even halfway down the line by the time Delgado caught the relay throw. Right call by Cox, but he kind of screwed the pooch there. There were a couple balls that maybe Andruw would have got to that Franceour, who played deeper, couldn't reach.

The crowd was roaring for Matsui after his 2 ribbie double and I could tell he was beaming on second even from my seat in the loge section by the left field foul pole. A huge hit for him.

Julio, on the other hand, quickly became the goat of the crowd, prompting several chants of "We Want Wagner" which was just stupid. Wags threw around 40 pitches yesterday; if anything, they should have been yelling "We Want Heilman." I thought going to Julio was a ballsy move by Willie after he pitched in the last couple of games. Heilman was the obvious call, IMO. Still, Julio got it done--eventually. I really wanted Heilman in there after Langerhans walked, and even more after McCann's pinch hit. Still, Willie showed a little faith and was rewarded, although there's no excuse for not having Heilman warming up after Langerhans' walk--I don't think Heilman started throwing until after Diaz brought the Braves to within one.

At any rate, the crowd rebounded with some nice applause after Julio got Renteria to ground out.

A fine game--and one that brought my 2006 season W% to .500. If I can maintain that throughout the season, I'll be a happy camper.

TheOldMole
May 06 2006 07:42 PM

With Julio rounding into form, they can spare Heilman in the bullpen.

Frayed Knot
May 06 2006 07:54 PM

I dunno what to think about Zambrano. Sprinting off the mound like that complaining of elbow pain just screams; 'Call Dr. Andrews and we'll see you in 18 months' -- but that's a get bit a head of ourselves at this point.


]I'm pretty sure Andruw was taken out of the game because he dogged it to first on his DP ball in the 6th. He wasn't even halfway down the line by the time Delgado caught the relay throw.


My first thought too but he actually tripped - twice even - trying to break out of the box.
He was def a loafer earlier in his career (I was watching a TBS game one night when Cox pulled him in the middle of an inning a la Gil/Cleon) but has been much better behaved for the last few years. Not sure if the trip caused an injury or not. Good thing for us either way; he probably gets to Nady's bloop which started the big inning (plays shallower, gets a better break) so there's no telling how the rest of that inning plays out.

]NEW YORK -- Andruw Jones left Saturday afternoon's game against the Mets because of a sore back and his status for Sunday afternoon's series finale remains in doubt.

Jones exited in the seventh inning after feeling discomfort during each of his first three plate appearances. He stumbled out of the box after ending the sixth inning with a double play grounder. But he first began feeling the discomfort while sliding into the plate in Friday's 14-inning loss at Shea Stadium.

"I play the game to win and my team needed me out there," Jones said. "So I just went out there to help. I should have just taken the day off and given the back a chance to rest because we had only like eight hours of sleep."

]we had only like eight hours of sleep."


Sigh......and people wonder why multimillionaire athletes get booed.

]A fine game--and one that brought my 2006 season W% to .500. If I can maintain that throughout the season, I'll be a happy camper.


I'm 4-1 this year and still bitter about the one loss.

]At any rate, the crowd rebounded with some nice applause after Julio got Renteria to ground out.


I noticed this too at the game today. I've got more comments that I'll paste tomorrow.

But regarding the crowd and Julio, they did boo the hell out of him after the run scored, but as he was getting strikes on the last batter the "get the last strikes standing-O" was going full blast with nary a boo.

A great freaking crowd. Announced attendance was 48,000+.

The blue caps also netted me three blue cap mug shots: Julio, Oliver, and, at long last, Matsui.

If anyone can spot a good blue-cap headshot from this game for any of the following players, I'd appreciate it: Feliciano, Bradford, Fortunato, Nady, Castro, Chavez, Woodward.

Thanks!
