I hope every self-important fan who booed over the last few days had a nice moment with themselves over that BA at-bat. Wasnt rooting for it, but hey it's a side effect i enjoy after the fact.

Betemit needs to get some swings. Some guys turn it around in their mid to late 20s.

OK so lets hear that chorus of boos then...where is it?

gotta love The Octo-Man

I hate wasting a good pen on a bad offense. It's not a sport like b-ball where you can just sit back and enjoy the Bulls no-defense ways as long as theyre scoring. Makes it great or frustrating, depending on perspective

For the love o' pete.

I hate when I completely doubt it off the bat but then get sucked in by Hawk's call

A base hit, whoa. Outstanding.

Matty T is outstanding. Here's hoping Beckham can be real good real fast.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) i love tyler flowers as a prospect...but its gonna be frustrating to still have a guy otu there who cant throw once he takes over for aj Hopefully the organization counters by acquiring starters that hold runners on.

For those not listening to the broadcast, MacDougal six pitches six sliders

Wildman Jack on the mound.

QUOTE (chiguy79 @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 02:44 PM) why get thrown out at 2nd when the chances are if thome hits the ball it is a 2r hr. You would think Jerry Owens was at the plate. I think the chances of Quentin taking that bag plus a Thome hit are greater than two straight hits. And the chances of Thome hitting a home run fall farther down on the list of ways we'd most likely get a run in that situation.

I feel like throwing up a ton. You have to send CQ there as basehits are manna right now.

Quentin will get ball 4 here if he want s it EDIT: b/c they're all like 'hes all theyve got right now'

I feel like doing one of those Detroit Fire Millen Parade shows of solidarity over this leadoff problem.

Gavin was extended solely as a way of pissing off people who wanted a CF trade announced.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 02:34 PM) Difference there is that Thomas was a all-star player, Maggs and Carlos all-stars who could run, Valentin also could run and Durham could do many things. We don't have the same type of players as we did back then. Even broken down more than that, the earlier core guys could hit for average. I dont think ours are going to collectively hit for much of one this year.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 02:30 PM) Can Obama use his executive privileges to make the Royals go to their bullpen, anyone minus Soria and Cruz? i think he strongarmed someone to get Cutler here.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 02:31 PM) OTOH, it seems if we had someone like CoCo Crisp in CF, then we might even be the favorites to win the division...we're just a player short. I honestly feel that by year's end we wont be talking as much about the leadoff hole as the iffiness in the middle of the lineup.

I know it's just been a few days but that perfect storm of the aging guys waiting one more year to age, plus the young new studs continuing their young studliness...... ........what if every component of that fails as opposed to repeats.

The Midwest Softball King takes a seat.

What would be more badass than to intentionally hit someone with a pitch and then pick him off a second later.
