striker

He has turned into the biggest pussy. Nibbling at the outside corner has just burned him. He was good last year cause he pitched inside. Someone needs to start calling his pitches from the dugout. If Scho gets rocked tomorrow I hope to god KW gets us another pitcher.

Crede is worthless. Throw him in on the RJ deal just to get rid of him.

Play too win. Johnson is a solid winner. Garland is not. We would have Johnson for the rest of this year and next. Rauch, Diaz, Honel, or Munoz could take Garlands place. Win and win now. Screw the future.

I love how Ozzie has adopted Jerry Manuel's managerial strategy of not starting righties vs righties and lefties vs lefties. It really paid off tonight. Stupid.

I can't stand Garland. What an inconsistent piece of s***. I would throw him in on any trade for a decent pitcher.

I don't see what the big deal with Rowand is? I guess the left handed bat helps.

I love the fact that he throws strikes. I couldn't stand how everytime Koch came in it was a big drama. I think Shingo should have been an all star.

How many times have you seen a platoon combine for all star stats? Seriously. I can't think of any. I can't stand managers that change players everyday based on who is pitching (with the exception to bad asses like Randy Johnson, Schilling, etc.). Throw them in the water and it's sink or swim. Regarding your comments on Rowand, I would never sit him. He is a major league baseball player and deserves to play everyday. His only weakness I've seen this year is hitting with runners in scoring position.

Platooning is gay. If you can't hit both lefties and righties you shouldn't be in the majors.

The Rookie

Why do we want to trade Maggs? Maybe if we get Smoltz. I don't see why we would want Jones whose numbers have dropped and Ortiz who walks everyone.

Nice

Who in their right mind would want Ortiz. He walks tons of people. I can't stand pitchers that walk tons of batters.

I don't blame Kenny for making those deals. Our team was the most talented team in the majors last year. It's not Kenny's fault Manuel and crew choked. How can Hicks say s***. He finished in the bottom of the standings with one of the top payrolls in baseball. Hicks is an idiot.

It was a joke. Since we finish 2nd every year.

Our pitching staff has problems. They suck. But we are only 2 games back and have been playing without Maggs for a couple weeks. We pick up a good 5th starter and get some decent relief pitching then second place is ours!!!

I think Cotts pitch selection is bad. Most the homeruns I've seen him give up are off his fastball, which is only like 91mph. He needs to get his change up bad and utilize his curveball more.

Look at the bright side. We won one game against the worst team in baseball!!! That's terrific!

Since we lost to the worst team in baseball, doesn't that technically make us the worst team in baseball? I would have to say yes.

They should have sent Politte, Cotts and Jackson with them. Let's face it. They suck just as bad.

Who in their right mind would give him $10million a year? MLB GMs are a bunch of idiots.

Cliff Politte is a f***ING PUSSY!!!! He throws 96mph and nibbles at the f***ing outside corner??!!!!!!! Thanks for the f***ing loss you f***ing piece of s*** pussy.

It was just a matter of time before he started getting rocked. He is the Rick White of 2004.

I say we throw in Ordonez.

I just can't stand watching teams throw money at players. Look at how many players got big paychecks and did nothing: Chan Ho Park, Higginson, Greg Vaugn, Mo Vaugn. f*** this overpaying s***. Another key note, Seattle said good bye to three future hall of famers Griffey, Rodriguez and Johnson and they actually got better. Money doesn't win games, real players win games.
