QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 13, 2013 -> 04:52 PM) So, basically exactly what people wanted him to do? Swing earlier, put the ball in play, stop swinging for the fences every time? Yeah, guess he just forgot the actual success part.

Good to see Dunn in prime 2011 form as well.

He has Dylan Axelrod type junk today...unbelievable, 11 games into the season.

I guess our new pitching strategy is to see if we can get all of the starters at 100 pitches by the 5th inning.

Why is Sale's velocity down so much, its start #3 of the season...

10 for 68, that is a .147 clip, and fallllllllllllllllllllllllling

10 for 67

Team is now 10 for 66 with RISP

Flowers is totally locked in right now.

#4(*&@^ This team frustrates the piss out of me. No reason what so ever to lose 1-0 to this s***ty Cleveland team. Can't execute any damn fundamentals, can't bunt, can't hit with RISP, managerial abomination, #@%%@#%$

This has the wrong feel to it, all the way around...

What a snoozer. Don't lose this in the bottom of the 9th, c'mon.

The gas can is on to ice it for CLE!

And here is the half inning where we get punished for not executing, with a bloop RBI or something from CLE.

I'm still totally lost, as to why you'd want Alexei to bunt, and leave the RBI work up to Gimenez...why??

Clearly, someone needs some bunt work in the cage.

Man if he is bunting, we're counting on the backup catcher to drive the run in? Blech.

Conenor with the double!

This offensive display is offensive.

Hit and run? Just make him bunt already, seriously.

We need to get Q some run support, he is dealing, but maybe has 2 innings left. C'mon guys, base hits...

We're currently putting up an offensive display!

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 12, 2013 -> 07:53 PM) Their bullpen of Storen/Clippard/Stammen/Soriano is pretty deep. I expect they'll trade Espinosa sooner rather than later to make room for Rendon. I don't find Soriano to be all that in terms of a closer. I think they can certainly do better there.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 12, 2013 -> 07:47 PM) I'm excited to see any improvements they make in the next year or so with regards to filling Haren's spot with a top pitcher. Yeah, Haren is a dog on this team, so there is room to get someone in there at that spot. There, and closer/bullpen. I guess all we need to do is suck balls for a few years, and hope 2 of the top talents in the last 20 years are also available in the draft! Oh, I guess we'd have to actually have a farm system worth mentioning, also.

I think I'm officially adopting Washington as my N.L. team. So fun to watch these guys.
