Wow, Corky's ABs haven't even been close. Hell of an idea to play him against the toughest righty in baseball.

 

its called fixing games. the bluejays line was rediculous this morning.

unless you think last year's injury set him that far back, no. He's 27, has had a good number of minor ABs. He needs to sink or swim in MLB at some point, and he should be up here working with the major league hitting coach to adjust to MLB pitching

He's been sinking for a while now. I think it's time we pull him out of the water before he drowns to death.

Leadoff single for Hill.

Agreed, he needs to get some confidence. Going 0-4 with 2 K's at the MLB level isn't going to help him.

What the heck was that Fields?

It really is time to send down Fields.

I agree. I'm all for letting young guys develop, but his AB's are brutal and provide no positives. At least with Getz and Ramirez, they put the ball into play and don't strike out a crazy ridiculous amount of times. I'd much rather see some sort of combo of Betemit/Nix/Andy Phillips at 3B.

 

Plus, maybe Fields could hit AAA pitching and regain even a slight amount of trade value.

Unless Rios is Joey Gathright, seemed like Fields should have had a shot at him at 3rd base. Rios got out of the box very slowly.

You gotta throw there at least.

Lind with a 3 run shot.

And that's the Gavin we've learned to hate. Grooves the first pitch fastball to a lefty.

And that's probably the ballgame.

Gavin Floyd sucks

Jays would win 100 if they played in the central.

Gavin's absolute lack of command on his fastball has made him a joke of a pitcher this year. No doubt in my mind he's given up more hits on his fastball than any pitcher in baseball this year.

way to come right back with a walk.

bad pitchers always walk the next guy after a HR. no stones. i have to say i missed the 1st inning..but why the f*** would JD try to steal 3rd with zero out? f***ing rejectolas.

joe madden messes up his lineup card putting longoria to hit dh and play third. Also, had Ben zorbit playing third. Now Andy sonastine is hitting third today now due mess up/.

Lillibridge with a peg to get runner at 2B ends the inning.

that throw will keep brian in charlotte for a month

i might even say the NY Yankees are the most disappointing team this yr. i think it will change when TEX starts mashing.

Looks like we have an early leader for the Terry Bevington award.

Lillibridge!

Gotta love the replay of the Lillicurse play. Only reason Rolen tried to get to 2nd was Lillicurse did a terrible job at getting in position to throw the ball (common theme with Sox for a while).

Lillibridge playing his way into the everyday line-up. Hope you like Charlotte BA.
