  1. Opposing pitchers can just throw first pitch garbage, the swing and miss rate has to be around 90%
  2. My fear is that they will fall so far out of the WC race that they will keep many of the guys that could help down until September. Afraid this thing is ready to implode, already looking lifeless and disengaged.
  3. Another misplay by Larnach…. Probably the worst outfield in baseball …. even more depressing is what we have developed in the minors…. is there anyone that can play some defense.
  4. The .500 talk can probably stop. We are who we thought they were.
  5. Shelton should probably decide who his best 2-3 relievers are and be using them at the end of a close game. Rodgers isn’t one of them. We are a 1/3 into the season, it’s time to decide on a closer, maybe two. At this point Banda clearly is better than Rodgers and Gomez has looked serviceable.
  6. Watching a lineup that includes Arcia, Gray and Bell starting isn’t particularly appealing. . None of these three are part of the future, none provide any meaningful value right now and none of them make we want to drive 4 hours to watch a home game. If anyone can explain the philosophy of this front office I would love to hear the strategy behind this roster construction….
  7. If, and it’s always a question when transitioning from the minors to the majors, Cullpepper’s play translates there is no need for Houston at SS, unless you are manipulating team control for several years. The odds are both won’t be successful, if they are it’s a good problem to have, whether in trade value or plugging another infield hole.
  8. Frauds…. to me, in the sense I began to believe that they could hang in the WC hunt until the AS game.
  9. We’re frauds, only reason we are only 4 under.500 is the AL sucks
  10. That Ckemens guy has value… great throw to the plate, inside and down…. anywhere else he doesn’t get the tag in time.
  11. The throw was fine, it took him away from the runner and should have been an easy turn.
  12. Good throw from Gray… a big leaguer dropping a perfect throw = really bad defense, really really bad defense that loses ball games
  13. These batters do realize we’re only up 1…. some terrible AB’s the past 5 innings.
  14. That a boy LK, nice hustle. It’s uncanny how you say something a little negative and they show you how little you know.
  15. Keaschall seems to have zero idea of his strike zone, swinging at really bad pitches and worse putting a lot of them in play. I can say I didn’t see this coming after last season. The scouts found something during the offseason.
  16. Our catchers have a difficult time putting the ball anywhere near where it needs to be on these stolen bases.
  17. On a positive note, SWR and Orze are not available.
  18. Another little league start and Bradley is as much too blame as Lee.
  19. You’re probably right…. Just don’t understand the pushback on trying a new position if you still believe you can be part of the future.
  20. Couple thoughts on Lewis…. he seems to have an attitude problem, it’s like he’s been a top tier player for several years. Reluctant to try 2nd or 1st, I don’t understand this position when your career is possibly on the line. This is a player that could ruin team chemistry, a guy that sees himself as an all star and in reality is no where nearly as good as he thinks he is. He needs to continue to hit another month at St., Paul to get called back up, but even if he does it doesn’t necessarily translate to hitting at a MLB level, the pitching is night and day difference. If the attitude doesn’t change I hope he rakes in the minors, hits up here and us traded for anything someone is willing to give up, not sure his value is worth it.
