The Mighty Mite

Carlson? Did you mean Colson?

Basically we are between a rock and a hard place because the division in a very unusual year is there for the taking. If we don’t do anything and say Cleveland wins the division with 83 or 84 wins and we wind up with 81 wins will we all be going nuts as to why Getz didn’t do anything at the deadline. In a normal year and with our record of 2 games over .500 and probably being 10 games out, I would stand pat and figure out who is for real. We definitely have question marks with the starting pitching, lack of a right handed power hitter to add to Vargas’ power and concern about the catching situation, Teel so far hasn’t reminded me of Carlton Fisk and Quero is still struggling down on the farm. It will be interesting to see what Getz does with one thing he has to remember, will Mune still be with us after 2027.

How many have the BoSox robbed us today with great catches.

We can’t get a break.

I thought about that, Venable making moves too early.

Teel and Meidroth struck out with the bat on their shoulders.

He needs to settle down. Now batting .188.

C’mon, break out of it.

Either a trade or they bring up Korey Lee as Quero is still struggling in Charlotte.

I think the Cleveland series mentally exhausted our guys.

No surprise.

NY will say safe.

Eventually they will come out of it but when.

This is why we miss Hays and Baldwin.

Dreaded lead off walk.

New York saw something else.

We have to beat this pitcher, hasn’t pitched in 2 years.

The guy hit a weak grounder but Kay didn’t make contact with the bag early enough.

For me there’s nothing worse in sports than a baseball team in a hitting slump. What’s amazing is that a whole team just stops hitting, you’d think someone would be clicking, well Attonacci has hit pretty well in this series so there’s one.

We need this one.

You are spot on. The thing is that the division is so bad it’s there for the taking but the reality is our pitching probably isn’t good enough.

Have we ever this year had the same lineup 2 games in a row? Seems like Venable is trying to prove he’s the smartest guy in the room but he’s yet to make the case.

Unforced error by Acuna.

Colson looks disinterested.

He doesn’t have a plan at the plate, maybe he should take a pitch or two.
