Peralta in the lead off spot? Has that happened before?

Yes. More than once I believe.

Edit: Guess I was wrong.

I normally never like dealing with Billy Beane, but Tommy Milone is asking for a trade from Oakland with him getting bumped out of the rotation due to the acquisitions of Samardzija and Hammel.

He has solid #'s across the board and a nice groundball rate. Would be a good fit in Chase Field and a move to the NL could help. A's would want a reliever most likely since they're trying to get ready for a postseason run.

Trade of Perez for Milone sounds fair.

Does anyone else dislike Todd Walsh as much as me? Where is Jody Jackson? I need her back on the pre/post game shows instead of Walsh & Berthume's wife.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Wow, El Nuno making Miggy look silly at the plate.

 

[Jonas_steven]

Peralta leading off?!?! Dammit gibby!!!

Steve's wife scares me! Todd Walsh is bearable but he is not good.

 

[Jonas_steven]

We put up a lot of fight that inning!

 

[Jonas_steven]

Hopefully Vidal Sassoon can have another decent start.

 

[Jonas_steven]

Did anyone else see that mccrappy blamed his awful play on gibby for telling him to cut back on his cutter!

 

[Jonas_steven]

Well...that was quick! Right down the middle of the fucking plate!

 

[Davis_Mike]

This is the wrong team to give up flyballs to. It also doesn't help when you throw meat right down the middle.

 

[Orange602]

Already down 2-0. Damn.

 

[Jonas_steven]

This game will get ugly!

 

[Orange602]

Come on Nuno, you can't elevate pitches like that at Chase.

 

[BPNAZ]

im so glad Vidal Sassoon is in the rotation instead of a guy like Trevor Bauer

 

[BPNAZ]

watching the game on TV, and it makes me sick how many "Detroit" fans are out there, that probably had D-backs jerseys on yesterday
