Okay, Josh Fogg:

Decent curveball but can't throw strikes with it consistently
Throws a slider and a changeup, but those too are very inconsistent.
Fastball in the mid to high eighties.

If we can be patient and not chase his crap, he can be out of the game relatively quickly.

Go BrEwErS!!!

I just have to get through work and getting all my homework done, and then I get to actually watch the game tonight unlike last night with that Bucks game. I will be at this game wearing a t-shirt and jeans, look for me. lol

We haven't hit Fogg very well, the team is a collective 18-74 (.243) against him. Fogg does have a 6.48 E.R.A at Miller Park.

The Reds are 45-119 (.378) against Bush. Griffey especially loves facing him. Hell Fogg is 1-1.

Fortunately this is Bush's penultimate start.

The wife and I are going to the game; first one of the season. Looking forward to it!

If Bush knows what's good for him he'll pitch well.

Well we haven't done that yet so I don't expect them to start now.

This is going to be tough because the Reds pound Bush. I couldn't think of a better way to phrase it so screw whoever brings it up first.

Gallardo made his second rehab start today.

And the word is that the Crew may bypass his last rehab start and bring him up next week......this is a very important start for Dave Bush. I would move Bush to the bullpen and get rid of McClung.

That's my dream scenario as well. It sounded like Ned was planning on having Villanueva, Parra and Gallardo in the rotation as well when Gallardo comes back so not good news for Bush if he wants to stay in the rotation and not good news for McClung staying on the team.

Edit: I added extra meat on my pizza to help Prince break out of his power slump.

Davey: "When a pitcher shakes off a catcher...that means that he doesn't want to throw the pitch that the catcher called for."

:rofl:

Even FSN knows watching the Bucks on back-to-back days is too much to handle.

Ryan5UW · Post #36 » by **Ryan5UW** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 12:08 am

Hardy looked surprised when it hit the base - wasn't he paying attention to the ball?

Wooderson · Post #37 » by **Wooderson** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 12:09 am

Here comes a double play from Grif the crime dog

Wooderson · Post #38 » by **Wooderson** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 12:10 am

Wow how'd Bush pull that off. Three of them in a row.

Bush sort of needs to throw him a strike then.

Wooderson · Post #40 » by **Wooderson** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 12:12 am

This better be the last game Bush throws in the first inning.
