The Mighty Mite

Yep, this game has another loss written all over it.

C’mon Tauch.

Another hit by Baldwin.

The nice hit by Frazier down the wide open 3rd base line led to this. You need to guard the lines late in a tight game. I hope our hitters were paying attention. Sox had a few chances for a bigger lead but crapped their pants. BTW I’m really starting to dislike Venable.

He’s not the only one, it’s all about ball speed off the bat, launch angle and barreling. When that’s all what your taught it’s hard to get away from that mindset.

Dammit.

C’mon, get a few runs here.

Another hit by Baldwin, got it right this time and so did Venable.

Out of the inning, good job.

Has he been hurt, only 132 ABs

Probably.

Agree that should be the IF at least the rest of the year, Mead was a good pickup, he’s good filling in at everywhere in the infield except for SS.

He looks ok at 1B, I like the infield we’ve had the last 2 games. I’m thinking they’ve been working with Lenyn at 1B.

There’s the hit by Baldwin.

Oops.

Looked like he was running in quicksand.

Can’t believe he didn’t score there, meanwhile Baldwin with another hit.

We need a few more guys to be on fire.

Sosa with a bomb to left center, guy is on fire.

He looked pretty good at first base last night, Vargas at 3B, Monty at SS, Meidroth at 2B and Sosa at 1B works for me, stick with that infield the rest of the way. I also want Baldwin the rest of the way in LF and don’t want him at a different position every game. Benintendi has been a bust and isn’t the future, maybe they can put him on waivers and be willing to pick up part of his salary.

Have to remember that a lot of the Charlotte guys are now with the Sox, Quero, Teel, Meidroth and Monty just a few with leaving out pitchers.

Beni should be depressed because he’s been a bust and no one wants him and his salary. I agree on the 2 catchers but bring Lee up and let Quero and Teel continue to rotate at catcher and DH, by bringing up Lee they don’t have to worry about an injury in a game to whoever is catching and losing the DH. I also agree on Meidroth, he brings lot of intangibles to the game, for one thing he’s pretty damn smart. I can’t believe some want to give up on him after only playing for a little over 3 months in the Majors.

I don’t think Getz called down to the dugout and told Venable to pinch hit for Baldwin with Taylor who isn’t the future. Baldwin had a nice line drive hit and made 2 goods play and he’s replaced, something stinks. Stone was spot on in his remark.

This game is history.

Stone is 100% right on his take on what they’re doing with Baldwin, he should still be in the game, he needs the ABs. Sometimes I think Venable is an idiot.
