badddddddddddddddd feeling here...

Juan Pierre: 1 for 13 in the series. Right now, I'd take Lance Johnson at 46 over Juan f***ing Pierre.

Hey, at least Pierre can't play left field either!

NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO Do NOT LET JUAN PIERRE HIT HERE>>>>>>>>>>?!?!?!?!

Wait..WHAT?!?!? You are going to let Mark Kotsay hit against a guy who is shutting lefties down completely??????????????

Did CQ just run full speed into the wall?

Theres our guy Randy, doing what he does!

Yeah, leave him in there a while longer, Ozzie...gotta have that remote shot at a win!!! Same ole Ozzie M.O.

103 pitches and still in there, huh Ozzie....you know, you don't ALWAYS have to try and get all of your starters a shot at a win. Don't be afraid to not make his arm fall off.

Juan Pierre is a no talent, assclown. Get the hell out of here.

Solid plan there, AJ...

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 09:43 PM) Dan Pasqua might have come close too, if memory serves me correctly. That guy could hit some absolute bombs. Ah Danny Pasqua...what memories. I remember driving 4+ hours and back to see a Birmingham game, just because Pasqua was there on a rehab assignment!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) Has someone hitting under .200 ever hit 30+ homers in a major league season? Rob Deer? Dave Kingman? The funny thing is that if you look at Quentin's minor league stats and 2008, you would think he would be a consistent .270-.310 hitter for 15 years. Deer hit...I believe (recalling from memory)... .191 one year with 30+ homers. I stand corrected, 210s and 220s when he was in the 25-30 HR area.

Good news: Back into the game 5-3 thanks to CQ Bad news: another 2 weeks of that type swing.

3 pitch K. Lulz

QUOTE (The Gooch @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 09:30 PM) Your right, because he is on a losing team he is not making a difference. I bet you wouldn't have taken Zach Greinke in the White Sox rotation last year either? So you're willing to erase a career of mediocrity from Mr. Scotty, all in favor of what he has accomplished in 3 weeks, playing for a bad Kansas City team? Cool, sounds like a plan.

Truth. Scott Podsednik's hot start to the season has single-handedly carried the Kansas City Royals... ...to an 8-13 start. Get over it. Pods is s***, Pierre is just a bigger turdstain than Pods is. I'll take neither of the above, thanks.

I'm done. No reason to watch this garbage the rest of the way tonight. You can put whoever the hell you want in the lineup, Ozzie, but it doesn't mean s*** when you are picking from different size/shape turds. Glad you have your ever-so-desired smallball lineup. 0-6 road trip, here we come.

But seriously....how many GIDPs is that this year?? Its like we all know to expect it if someone is on first.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 09:24 AM) Maybe its just me, but Pierre is Pods + baseball IQ. There really isn't any difference in their games or abilities, except Pods is baseball dumb, and Pierre understands what is going on around him. Actually....I think you are 100% right-on with that astute observation. I feel the same way.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 08:12 AM) Yesterday alone would have been a help. How many men LOB did Pierre have? The game was close. One key hit in those situations could have scored a run or 2 and changed the complexion of the game. The same Scott Podsednik who came up to the plate with the tying run on base in the 9th inning yesterday, and hit into a double play? Yeah, clutch. Riddle me this as well, fellow caped crusaders...last 5 games: Player 1: 4/21, 1 BB, 3 K's, 1 SBs Player 2: 4/21, 0 BB, 0 K's. 3 SBs Does that "Huge" difference in production look so huge lately? I love small sample sizes, you know, the same sample sizes that are making people line up to Pod's defense.

True story. With Pods on this team, we'd at least have 12-14 wins, stellar left field defense, and a true threat on the bases. GMAFB. Pods alone would do jack s*** for this team, there are far too many other problems with this abomination of a baseball team.

TON o' strikeouts tonight, to the lowly Texas Ranger pitching staff. For some reason, I felt fairly optimistic about our chances to take a series in Arlington. Don't ask me why, but now reality might be setting back in.

Let me get my vomit bag ready for the senseless comments sure to come...

The amount of Pods' knobslobbering in this thread is despicable. The guy has had a good 3 weeks....3 WEEKS...playing for a gutwrenchingly average Kansas City team, who no one expects anything out of regardless. Not a chance on this great, green earth, that Scott f***ing Podsednik would have made 3+ WINS difference when no one behind him would have been doing anymore than they already are. You're right though, 3 weeks of the 2010 season for an aging, 1.25 tool outfielder should FAR outweigh any numbers that he put up in the previous 7+ YEARS of a mediocre career.
