San Francisco Giants at Washington Nationals, Jun 6, 2008 7:35 PM EDT


On the Hill...

Tim Lincecum, the San Francisco Giants' 24-year old right-handed sophomore pitching sensation is (7-1) with a 2.23 ERA so far this season. Last year, Lincecum's rookie campaign, it took the former 1st Round Pick, (10th overall in '06) 19 starts before he recorded his seventh win, and he ended the year at (7-5) with a 4.00 ERA in 24 starts and 146.1 IP.

Already in '08, Lincecum has matched his win total from last season, and he's more than half way to the strikeout total of 150 K's with 78 in 12 starts and 76.2 innings pitched this year. Lincecum hasn't lost a start since April 29th, and in May, Lincecum was undefeated at (3-0, 2.97 ERA) in 5 starts, with the Giants 4-2 in the six starts since Lincecum last lost. Last time out, against the San Diego Padres, Lincecum went 7.0 IP, allowing 4 hits and 1 ER with 4 walks and 2 K's in a game the Giants won a walk-off single in the bottom of the tenth.

Washington righty Jason Bergmann is (1-2) with a 4.50 ERA in '08, but the Nationals have lost 3 of his last 4 starts, though Bergmann only earned the "L" in his last appearance at Arizona, where he allowed 7 hits and 4 ER on 4 HR's in a 8.0 inning complete game for NJ's finest. 

Bergmann, the Neptune, New Jersey native, brought a 19.2 inning scoreless innings pitched streak into the last start with the D-Backs, only to see it end in the bottom of the second inning of that game, but before that, Bergmann hadn't allowed a run in any of his three previous trips to the mound. 

Nationals' #'s Against Tim Lincecum...

Willie Harris - 2 for 6, .333 AVG, 1 2B, 1 3B.

Uh...that's it for the current roster actually...

The "If they were playing" list...

Ronnie Belliard - 2 for 4, .500 AVG.

Johnny Estrada - 1 for 4, 1 RBI.

Check the NatCast if you're heading to Nationals Park...

The game gets underway at 7:35 pm EST. The Giants are here for four games this weekend, tonight and tomorrow evening, followed by a Sunday day game and the Monday night finale. The Nationals are now 14-17 at home after losing two of three to the Cardinals. The Giants have a 12-16 road record this year, and they're 6-3 in their last 9 away from AT&T Park through May. Time to play baseball...

Sarcasm's also often referred to as the "lowest form of wit."

Can’t wait to see Lincecum pitch.

don't pick on that scab...

Wagner was a bone head for putting that sign on Milledge’s locker.

Serves the METS right (hate to say it). Milledge had NY written all over him. Fast, flamboyant, good contact w/the ball…

We appreciate Church filling in for him.

Church has been the most consistent Mets player all year.

Church has been getting knocked around...The Mets better keep him safe the rest of the way...

No “picking” I know all too well what it’s like to watch/follow prospects development and then watch them depart like Lastings did…

i've been to 3 nats games

vs. Marlins (Marlins destroyed em)
vs. Mets (Nats won)
vs. Braves (Nats won)

Metro is a bit crowded when departing…should say was.

Can’t imagine it’s too bad now. the nats crowd has been pretty thin of late.

Oh, no joke...

from mlbtraderumors.com

In June came Ohka’s famous diss of Robinson – he turned his back on his manager when he came out to make a pitching change. Robinson had to grab the ball out of his hand. The Nats fined him and traded him five days later to the Brewers for Junior Spivey. This despite his 3.33 ERA in nine starts on the season and a year and a half of service time left. Upon joining the Brewers, Ohka posted a 4.35 ERA in 20 starts, including his first shutout.

i believe they are tinkering for the rest of the season and next year

not bad strategy considering who they are playing and who they have on the mound for them.

LOL! question on the Amazin Avenue site

The question of the day was:

“Who do you have more confidence in?”

Schonoweis

or

Heilman

I couldn’t even vote. they are both horrible. Take a look at box scores this season for the mets. If you see earned runs in the 7th or 8th… I guaran-damn-tee you it was one of those two giving them up.
