PeavyTime Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 QUOTE (PlunketChris @ Aug 29, 2009 -> 12:25 PM) Depending on the makeup of the rest of the team, I like Nix in the lineup somewhere. But if you need Getz as your leadoff type because it's not coming from anywhere else, then Getz is the 2B Why? Nix brings squat to the team.

Disco72 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Nix is proving me wrong with his bat, but what the heck is his problem on defense this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattZakrowski Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 QUOTE (PeavyTime @ Aug 29, 2009 -> 01:27 PM) Why? Nix brings squat to the team. He's slugging .457, and he gets to more stuff in the field than Getz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nix and Getz are both absolutely awful fielders, but in different ways. Nix gets to a lot, but drops the ball constantly, whereas Getz generally catches the ball, but never gets to it. Nice pitching, Jose. Had to throw an extra 10 to 12 pitches probably because of the error though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Dye Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Ive mentioned it before, but i think Jose shouldve been tried as a reliever long ago. Very often has a good first inning or two, then loses focus. Not great at holding people on. OK now i'm trying to think of good things... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSqwert Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 (edited) I really wouldn't mind seeing Pods get a 1 year deal next year to leadoff and play in LF, shifting Q to RF. The OF would finally be pretty solid. Edited August 29, 2009 by BigSqwert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChrisSamsa Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 29, 2009 -> 12:24 PM) Blaming the ump there is kind of like Pitino blaming the media. If you dont commit the initial mistake, none of the other baggage piles on. OK it's like that but w/o the group sex. Hold up.. group sex? I didn't follow the Pitino thing that closely, I thought that was a one on one thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChrisSamsa Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I'd be happy with it, as well as we had another capable 4th outfielder, or a Kotsay type... We lose Kotsay in the offseason right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removing Dye from the OF and ensuring Pods is no longer in CF would indeed make me happy. Pods is still a pretty decent leadoff hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense, bullpen, coaching staff, and defense could all use a weekend off to gather their thoughts. We're great other than those minor problems.

greg775 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 It's easy to be negative lately, but Jose was throwing slop that first inning; soft slop. That does not bode well for the next time through tht order. Don't like what I saw in inning No. 1. Of course we have done nothing in 2 innings agianst their hack pitcher.
