Misch has really pitched well

Despite the stats

14-21...this sucks

by rhys on May 9, 2008 8:45 PM PDT reply reply   0 recs

Again

Why throw Feliz a fastball? I was about to comment that Misch should throw anything but a fastball and he throws a freakin’ fastball.

Misch wasn’t around last year, he probably doesn’t believe the scouting report on Feliz.

by paboperfecto on May 9, 2008 8:47 PM PDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

Misch..

He does have a really nice curveball. It’s big like Zitos but doesn’t have as much of a hump.

Yeah and Misch can’t get the K against freakin Feliz. DIAF everyone.

it looks nice though

pretty close to TV quality. I’ll take the slight delay

Yea I'd take it too..

Except I don’t really have the $100 it would take.

1 time fee though

totally worth it if you know people who live in the bay area and can leech their TV

by Azmanz on May 9, 2008 8:50 PM PDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

Yea..

I’m on Slingbox. $100 one time fee plus getting other channels is worth it. $100+ for just baseball even if it’s a better quality isn’t worth it.

Slingbox is pretty cool

but i don’t watch anything but sports. The magic of the interweb gives me all the content i need. It’s good to not live 20 years ago

by bondslegend on May 9, 2008 8:53 PM PDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

Yea..

But also this way I don’t have to pay for cable too. I’ll get local channels through an antenna but this way I get some cable.

i have a stupid fast connection though

i live in dorms

so bandwith is a problem sometimes, i use slingbox mostly for giants games

4 runs through 6.

I don’t think that’s too bad from Misch being a callup.

Not bad at all

The hamels hit that led to a HR was just bad luck for him. I’m honestly surprised by the whole team so far

by bondslegend on May 9, 2008 8:48 PM PDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

as I said before I realized another thread had opened, it’s really not too bad when you consider the Phillies just saw him last week.

Considering the Giants are going above average against Hammels I’d say it’s very good.

I'd send Misch out next inning if his spot doesn't come up.

Give him a one batter leash.
