Why Chuck Norris is doing commercials trying to recruit more U.S. border guards. Wow.

I think a lot of people wanted to see what Alexei could do after that spring of his.

 

Then a few games in, everyone did the usual thing where you get hasty and give up on a guy. And we were so happy about Quentin supplanting him that we started saying things like "Alexei needs to develop in AAA"

 

no.

pretty great that when Q finally starts slumping, the whole offense goes, "well... guess we better get this started"

I want 20 Runs, am i asking too much?

 

Let's save 'em for tomorrow.

Alexei to SS, Ozuna in at 2nd, Anderson in to CF and I think Q takes a seat.

Quentin pulled cause he sucks.

Yes sir. Love it that we get to watch Alexei play some short.

We'll get an extended look at Alexei at SS now...Cabrera's out and Pab is at 2b

BA and Ozuna in for Q and Cabrera, Alexei moves to short.

 

Alexei now batting .298 on the season.

no.

I wouldn't be surprised if it just was going to take Alexei a month or so to finally get the hang of the hitting, whether or not he was playing every day. I thought some AAA time would have done him good, and I'll admit this is a pleasant surprise I didn't see coming.

Can we just score 20 every game?

BA is in for Q .. Swish moved over

Didn't see it coming at all. I thought it'd take a while for him to get used to big league hitting(a lot more than a month).

 

And that was quick, Gavin.

has uribe even gotten in a game since hes been back?

to ozzie's credit, his comments always seemed to sense that Alexei had the tools to absolutely be on the big league club, but that mentally he had to adjust some

While the time off for O.C. can't hurt...something tells me the fact that we keep seeing this substitution late these last couple blowouts is giving Lexy a trial at SS for, let's say, future years.

Floyd has some nasty pitches.

Can we just score 20 every game?

 

against the twins thats a distinct possibility

has uribe even gotten in a game since hes been back?

i think super briefly yes

BA is in for Q .. Swish moved over

 

Caught my mistake a lil too late.

 

God I'm in love with this team right now.

 

I hope this carries over to the Cubs series.

why not put quentin in RF and give JD the rest of the day off, seriously? put the youthful defenders out there and rest JD's legs, ffs.

While JD does need a rest (See below) honestly so does Q. He's scuffled a bit more than JD the last few games and JD's had more time off.

has uribe even gotten in a game since hes been back?

He played 2nd base for an inning vs TB on the 31st of May. He does not have an AB since May 15th.

Gotta feeling Paul is gonna try to turn and burn on the lefty.
