So..... We suck? There is no question we are one horrible offense/defense, I still have no idea how we aren't 15 games under .500

QUOTE (raBBit @ Jul 21, 2015 -> 12:44 AM) 0 of Micah's 7 home runs have come away from BB&T Ballpark. Are you trying to rain on the Micah parade? I don't think anybody is looking for Micah to be a 10+ home run guy in the majors so his home runs really don't mean much

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 07:03 PM) Completely agree. I really wouldn't be surprised to see Ramirez moved soon to create room for the at bats of all of our young middle infield prospects (excluding Anderson...well until his Sept callup). Abreu-Micah-Sanchez-Saladino infield would be interesting to watch

Johnson is now 2-2 against Scott Diamond (LHP)

QUOTE (Señor Ding-Dong @ Jul 20, 2015 -> 06:28 PM) I'm glad Micah's destroying AAA, but his bat wasn't the reason he was demoted in the first place. We all know how horrid he was defenisvely during his brief stint in the majors and sending him down to work on that was obviously the right move. If he can be just below average defensively at 2B instead of in the running for worst defensive 2B of all-time then his speed and hitting skills will make him a real weapon. He has the range and athleticism to be a solid defender, so let's hope he can improve his footwork and other mechanical issues. From what I can tell the reports on his defense in AAA have been positive, but is 56 games really enough time for him to improve his defense by any notable margin? I think it's going to take more than two months in the minors to get his defense to at least playable at the major league level. To put it simply, he's a threat on the basepaths and his bat is major league ready, but his glove is no where close. The opposite could be said of Cleuluis Rondon, but you don't hear anyone clamoring to call him up to the bigs anytime soon and for good reason. Is it also not fair to say he was a horrible defender in the majors based off of 27 games in the MLB. Who says he wouldn't have improved while up he was up here and getting more comfortable?

Sorry but Sale gives up way too many home runs

If he is hurt put him on the damn DL

Flowers now has 9 passed balls, he has to be leading the league

I hate the Royals, can we switch divisions?

I am ready for Micah to be back to give some more offense to the club, we need it big time

You can blame management for this loss for having Emilio, Beckham, Gillaspie, Sanchez, Alexei, and Saladino all on the roster keeping one less pitcher in the bullpen.

Oh cool, walk in a run.

We get a run, let up a run. Just poor play by this team.

Every damn time. Why did they keep him in?

F off LaRoche. Still want Avi starting instead, I don't care about the pitchers numbers, I care about the hitters and how they are hitting

Now its up to LaRoche. Work a walk man

There we go! Could use a Jose bomb, it's been awhile

Saladino is playing well. We need a couple more players like him

I would have rather started Avi at DH then LaRoche

Same pitch over and over to Cain there

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 18, 2015 -> 01:58 PM) Q has to shut them down now and our only hope is Guthrie to give up his 5 runs a game average The problem is he isn't facing other teams, he is facing the Sox which he dominates us normally

Same old same old

More approaches like Saladino

This game is already over. We can't hit worth s***

I wish we had a gameplan like the Royals do
