How many goddamn DPs have we hit into this year?

Goddamn...I love me some Andruw Jones

I'm sure Lopez's eyes lit up after seeing a BP fastball right down the pipe....good one.

But really, who didn't expect that...

Randy Williams, your ticket to the Independent leagues is ready.

Hell yes, way to go Danksy, helluva performance out there. Andruw, Paulie, Bobby, yes!

5 hits....5 whole, awesome, motherf***ing hits. Enjoy your bonehead decision-making, losing season Ozzie.

Pathetic. Give me a f***ing break, this team is brutal.

If it weren't for being 1 hit in Toronto, this game would easily qualify as the low point of the 2010 season so far. Shut down by a bad Cleveland team, and an efficient Talbot...

Bechkam is a natural at second, I love to watch him play the field. When his head isn't up his ass, Alexei is pretty solid at SS as well.

Ouch. We get one back, and give them 2.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2010 -> 08:34 PM) Teahen looks a lot better than he did a week ago. Yes, Teahen definitely has improved everything about his hitting approach, very happy to see that. I'm hoping that Pierre gets the slappy-ness back to his ABs as well. Also, Rios has, for the most part, had good ABs even when getting outs. Now, if someone can find Kotsay, Konerko, AJ, and Alexei's normal batting approach, and send it on to them, I'll be even happier.

What is there to be so positive about, honestly? Tell me? And thats a silly statement, go to the gamethread for the last game we won, and see how many 'negative' posts I made. I've been around here long enough to give props when its due, but to also point out the glaring bad parts of this team too.

Sweet another leadoff walk. And as for negative/positive posts...I think the sad part is that most of us realize this team isn't 'special' by any means. But most of us know that because of the division we're in, we can possibly hang around long enough to have a shot when it matters. Burying ourselves early on will remove even that possibility.

Man on 3rd, less than 2 outs. Most clubs consider that an automatic run. We're not most clubs.

.211 .268 .237 .212 .143 .238 .212 .147 .217 Thats the averages on this lineup this season after tonights 5 innings. I'm sorry...there is absolutely NO excuse for this garbage product, every f***ing year in April, from this team, regardless of who is in the lineup.

12 in a row out, sickening. Wake up, slumbering offense...this isn't Arizona Spring Traning anymore...

Talbot is going to get into the "8-12 pitch innings" mode now, god I hate this team sometimes.

Good lord...

Making this WAYYYYYYYYYY too easy for a freaking mediocre pitcher in Talbot.

Yeah, take your time, Ramon Castro.

But SERIOUSLY...what is the point of having Randy Williams on this team?
