Jason seems to be obsessed with anyone named Nicky from the Chicago area....check out the next time they play the Rangers.

Hey they did get 1 hit with the bases loaded that inning....we can't get too greedy you know. Some extra base hits might be nice though.

Once again, I know little about AJ Pollock's career....but he is better than this right??

I think that is the 2nd hit for Tim with RISP in this series....if he starts to come through in those spots, that would be outstanding.

Hernandez ERA back over 9

At a fraction of the cost at least.

Just a little reminder for Jason....

I think the word you are looking for is inconceivable.

I also miss last year's Grandal. I know he is awfully streaky and that hot streak might still come but he looks bad this year and he was crucial to the offense last season.

1000% agree there Ray....and I know you will appreciate that type of math.

This team went from a pretty likable bunch under Renteria to unwatchable crap "ready to turn it on at any time" under LaRussa.

If they lose 3 out of 5 to the Royals, these pampered pricks should be taking a bus to NY not a chartered fucking flight. And LaRussa won't or can't do a damn thing to wake these clowns up apparantly.

NO

The frustrating thing is that a pitcher doesn't even need to throw a gem to shut this team down. Add me to the chorus of friggin do something....fire Cairo for all I care but do something.

I don't doubt what you are saying and I am only watching the results on Gameday but the guy has an ERA over 9 and a whip of over 2 so that means EVERYONE else has tagged this guy this year.

This offense is so frustrating Going up against a guy with a 9 era, please score some runs I'll go with Pollock

Screw it.....bring up Yolbert sooner rather than later. I've seen enough of Harrison's energy.

Can we retroactively fire him like they put guys retroactively on the DL??

Ugghh only heard that on the radio....Engel is only valuable if he plays + defense....that's just awful for a guy who's not hitting.

I would love to know what he does as well.

On the radio...Len said the only guy he remembers whose walk rate went up mid career was Sammy Sosa as teams were pitching around him....DJ said and it's also because of Steroids hahaha. Dj later elaborated that steroids help you get locked in so you see the strike zone better.

Seems like a bit of revisionist history there...I do not remember everyone here being happy with those trade deadline acquisitions last year.
