Just an awful at bat by Beckham. He seems to be jamming himself a lot.

Morel with nice contact there, just right at Cespedes.

PK!

DUNN!

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Apr 24, 2012 -> 03:48 AM) We also need Jermaine Dye to come back and play SS for an inning. It was SS right? Yep, that was the game Crede got tossed after arguing on a HBP

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 24, 2012 -> 03:39 AM) Opposing teams are going to have nightmares about this awesome 7-8-9 we currently represent. Colon doesn't seem to have his good stuff tonight.

Morel and Beckham are just terrible. Kinda surprised Ventura didn't have Morel running or Beckham bunting.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Apr 24, 2012 -> 03:13 AM) 691 Thank you!

What channel is this on, on U-Verse?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 10:33 PM) Why, because of that blazing 91 mph fastball he can't catch up with? I thought he had restored his fastball back into the 93-94 mph range last year...had no idea he was down to 91.3. For now, I hope Viciedo proves some of us wrong and hits some of those tailing fastballs on the outer half into the right field stands.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 11:30 PM) If they're going to compete, it's not going to be because of Kosuke Fukudome's contributions in the corner OF spot, it's going to be because we got Viciedo's struggles out of the way and got to the point where he is a contributor. Same story for Beckham and probably Morel. Again, plenty of time for Viciedo to get back on track, but the way things are going, Colon doesn't seem like a good match-up for him. He'll get a lefty tomorrow and then could face a AAA pitcher on Wednesday.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 11:07 PM) If you're worried about wins, then you're not all for Viciedo getting his opportunity this year. I'm worried about wins when the team is playing about as well as it possibly can outside of our young offensive players.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 09:56 PM) here is to hoping that bottom three gets their collective heads out of their asses. Having 3 automatic outs in a row is not good With all three of those guys struggling with fastballs this year, it wouldn't have been the worst thing to get Lillibridge and Fukudome in the lineup again. I'm all for Viciedo getting his opportunity this year, but you hate to have such a poor bottom of the order when you have so many other hitters on fire.

Great job by our bullpen and the entire offense! Danks with win #2

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 12:05 AM) Yes. You have to like that called third strike to Suzuki Not just that, seems every close play/pitch we've received benefit of the doubt.

I like the umpires in this series!

Really don't want to see Montero batting as the tying run.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 23, 2012 -> 12:00 AM) and with only 3 pieces not working - that's a playoff caliber club. every team has a couple terrible hitters Not the top teams in the AL, it seems

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:58 PM) but don't you guys get that we're only overly negative this year because of Dunn and Rios. IF - and it's a decently sized if - they're hitting well come midseason, then what flaws do we HAVE? Bottom of the order

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:58 PM) The term "it's always darkest before dawn" is what the "glass half full" person would say when looking at Beckham. He's never looked worse. I thought he looked worse last year when he was chasing every pitch and could only hit a hanging curve.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:55 PM) Yeah, absolutely... But if we pitch like we're capable of, we'll shut down just about everyone...Texas is the only offense that honestly just scares me...Tigers, Yanks, Angels included... I agree, except I'd put the Yanks up there with Texas with regards to offense.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:54 PM) we think fister's actually good? I do

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:49 PM) I know you have Extra Innings as well...I haven't seen anyone I'm afraid of other than Texas... Angels will get things going soon, in my opinion.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:50 PM) You can carry them as long as we win. Give them time to work through their issues. I see good things coming from those guys. Look at how folks including me were screaming about Dunn and Rios I see nothing good from Morel. Beckham's at least swinging aggressively.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 11:42 PM) 22 K's in 51 ABs, thats shades of Borchard awesomeness. It's really amazing someone who swings so weakly can strike out so much.
