Crede can't get the job done....he's been bad ever since the Joba hit.

Someone please get Swisher a new supply of bats. If that doesn't tell him he needs to stay back on the pitch, I don't know what will.

Much better swings by some of the guys tonight.

Get in the game Swisher!

Nice catch by Jermaine there.

Crap, bad defense strikes again!

Floyd will be very lucky to get out of this inning without a run scoring.

That's a pitch that PK would have demolished in the past.

OC has made some nice defensive plays so far.

Nice job by Floyd getting us back in the dugout after we scored.

HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PK can't get the job done. He has no strength in that hand.

QUOTE (Gene Honda Civic @ May 6, 2008 -> 10:07 PM) ORLY? He's hit .242/.270/.348 against LHP since July 1st '06 -- 22 months of sustained suckitude. Compared to RHP, I assume those numbers are much better?

Ugh, bad call by the umpire. I can see why he didn't think he got the base though.

It took Hawk 3 batters to complain about the umpiring.

Going to be a long night if Floyd can't command anything.

While I don't think it's a big deal at all, I hope these guys aren't so dense that they didn't expect this to become a big story. Between Ozzie's rant and this, they've done a great job of trying to make people forget about the losing streak.

I must be the only one who's not excited that Uribe is going to be released. If we had a suitable replacement, that would be fine. However, seeing Ozuna and Ramirez there for another month isn't exactly an upgrade.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 6, 2008 -> 02:50 AM) Ramirez and Russell Ozuna!

It would only be fitting if Uribe was canned after getting 2 hits.

Nothing really. 2nd base is the only possible spot to upgrade, and I really hope they don't get Brian Roberts. As Boers and Bernstein frequently say, KW signed up for the same offensive structure as last year when he re-signed Dye, and decided to keep the 3/4/5/6 all together. I won't even go into how pathetic OC is.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 6, 2008 -> 01:51 AM) Pablo has to hit there, because there was literally NO ONE on the bench at that point. Crede is technically available, but he was hurting bad enough that he wasn't even in the dugout. Which brings up the question I asked 5 days ago... why the hell did they bring up Russell instead of Getz/Bourgeois/Owens? or that Josh Fields character.
