Until Cotts can get some control, he can't be used in crucial situations. The shame is that the good looking lefty, K. Wunsch, looks solid for the Dodgers so far.

I wish he would have let Freddy finish the inning but Neal will get the job done.
I agree, I like our chances more of Garcia vs Gotay than Cotts vs Graffy or Marrero (destroys lefties).
I know, I'm not ready to start complaining about Podsednik as much as I have about Konerko's approach. I just would like to see more line drives by Podsednik, even if they're soft ones like the hit in the 8th last night.

AJ needs to step up on his defense. This is getting old.
I agree, but that was Uribe's fault on that throw. The runner would have been safe even if A.J. caught that ball.
Good play by Rowand there to save a triple. Does it seem to anyone else that Garcia doesn't use his little changeup/splitter much anymore? I remembered him throwing a lot more of that pitch last season when we first got him.

Repeat after me Pk and company: Level Swings
Very good swing by Dye there. Nice to see him drive the ball to the opposite field.
I honestly have no complaints if Pods will try to steal on the first or second pitch every time he gets on base, especially against a righty. We need to get some things going on the bases.

I think it's time to just pitch around Sweeney
Yeah, a massive hanging curve is never a good idea to a hitter who has 4 homers in 2 games. Luckily it stayed in the park.
