That's just bad baseball, plain and simple. You don't make that throw, a perfect throw without hesitation wouldn't have got him, end of story.

Why the f*** is Erstad even in CF?

The CF position for our club only requires that you be a "grinder".

 

See 2005 (i.e., Rowand)

Good Luck Thornton, you're going to need it.

You guys, calm down. These Spring Training games don't mean anything. Sheesh.

 

 

 

 

 

Talk about a f***ing implosion.

 

If Aardsma gets out of this I will punch myself in the face

Hooray!

 

Aardsma's coming in!

So far: bullpen sucks, starters give up lots of runs, runs being scored mainly via the HR, wow, it looks like nothing has changed.

 

It's pre '05 all over again.

So, here's your choice if you're Ozzie. Aardsma, Thornton, or putting a gun to your head. Pick one.

Ozzie brings in Aarsma with bases loaded, nobody out. Wonder how this ends up? Maybe only two runs will be given up.

BA would have made the right choice...

It doesn't even matter. Erstad is supposed to be the ultimate ballplayer, the vet who's done it all and he's making just ridiculously stupid plays out there. He shouldn't even be playing CF right now.

Talk about a f***ing implosion.

Agreed... Aardsma is a joke.

7 earned Runs of of SP and we are still losing...............UGH

I'm thinking a walk here...

After today we should have the highest ERA in baseball.

Tell me he could not reach that with a dive?

I thought the same thing. Perhaps Hawk was right in noticing something with his side going to the dugout.

 

This game, unbelievably, is matching the ugliness of opening day pitch for pitch.

This game is going ot get really ugly and Is till think Crede and Iguchi should be flipped in the line-up for every good Crede at-bat there are two bad one's.

Granny is my bet.

I could care less if we go 0-2. It's just disappointing to see Spring Training carry over into the regular season with this pitching. The LF/CF situation is going to be a joke all season.

This might be comical to see what happens

I wouldn't mind the LF/CF if the pitching was there.

PK hurt? We can just put Gload at 1B then.

0-2, now time for a pitch right down the heart of the plate to be crushed.

That was such a disappointing play on so many levels. It seemed like everything was building up to that. Wow.

Gooch should be hitting 2nd
