Pretty sure Hale leaving Perez and his over 1.000 OPS vs righties to face Soler is the dumbest managerial decision of the year. Joe Sheehan has a great tweet about it that I can't copy at this moment.

KC wins a 6 inning game that probably shouldn't have been played. They knew they only had a 2 hour window. 8 games back now.

Moustakas has 7 more hits to LF this season than he did all of last year. He's become an all-star caliber player.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 24, 2015 -> 12:03 AM) You want to know how bad this offense is, right now? 7 Game Homestand vs 2 other 'worst' AL Central Teams 6 Games (so far) 10 Extra Base Hits 39 Hits 14 Runs 7 for 37 with RISP Pretty bad stats, if you were on the road and playing tough competition....but we're at home, against our division cellar dwellars...let that sink in for a bit. Need Avi back in the next day or so. Unfortunately, him not being able to PH today makes me think he'll be out for another 4-5 days.

Typically when a team is one of, if not the worst, teams in the Majors in hitting, fielding and base running, they're going to lose a lot of games. If they can't get things turned around, thoughts of contending will be done in a few weeks. Avi being injured highlights just how weak the offense is. Eaton's been far and away the most productive player this week. Need to shuffle some things in the order though, and I would suggest Conor batting 2nd and Melky in the 6-7 range.

Rest of teams in AL Central are going to retire Flowers jersey

Swing the bat! Second time he's done that vs Perkins

Where's Boni or Soto

Wait, why is JB batting?

Yikes... Coincidence his worst AB of the year was when PK was here?

Never seen a team with so much warning track power

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:40 PM) Or 3rd. There's like 4 combined from Conor/gordon at least

I wonder if Avi can hit in the 9th

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 23, 2015 -> 11:37 PM) We're 16th in team batting average but 29th in runs. Meanwhile Houston is 6th in runs but dead last in batting average. I miss having power in the lineup. It's going to be hard for Hahn to find power during the year. Right now, your only power sources are 1b, DH and rf. There's very little, if any, power coming from LF, CF, SS and 2b

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:36 PM) League started catching up on him 2nd half of last year. Didn't he hit like .350?

QUOTE (harkness @ May 23, 2015 -> 11:35 PM) Abreu is a big part of why this team can't score runs... I don't think he's close to 100 pct right now with that hand

Ha, nice swing

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:32 PM) Man....that Melky signing....he looks like he has about as much swing power as Rafael Belliard right now. 2.5 more years of a possible lemon. Has a chance to be just a horrible signing if he can't start hitting with some authority again.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:31 PM) 3 for 38. Ouch. I would bet 20 of them are choppers

Another chopper from right side by Melky. His swing righty is so messed up.

Wow unbelievable range

Great final 5 innings from Sale

Sale hasn't thrown many sliders, has he? I missed a few innings

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 23, 2015 -> 11:21 PM) What's worse, is that so far, in 5, almost 6 home games....14 runs total. Well, they are going to have to start hitting if they want to survive this upcoming road trip. If not, the players will be the ones responsible for just no showing the first two months.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 23, 2015 -> 10:18 PM) 28 ABs, 9 K's so far for Sanchez. Makes up for it with his power
