If this team is going to be bad defensively, and worse out of the bullpen, then it needs to beat the livin' bejeesus out of baseballs.
This is the way.
And then there are days like today, where the guy goes 2-for-3 with a dinger and cleanly fields everything hit/thrown to him. You know there is talent in this guy and you _want_ him to succeed, which is what makes the taken third strikes and the miscues so frustrating. Will the real Edouard Julien please stand up?
