August 25, 200916 yr I can see giving a guy time to work things out but JD is not even producing at a Brian Anderson level yet he's still in the 3hole. If it was week, or two, maybe 3, but it's going on 2 months. You have to try someone different there. Thome's not a high average hitter so, with basically no #3 hitter, you're wasting the top of the lineup when they get on base. I don't think Rios is a 3 hitter but i'd be willing to give him or Quentin a shot. PK is swinging well again, try him there. Actually, the ballsy move wouold be to move Alexei or AJ(Getz when he's back) to the 2 hole and drop Beckham to 3.
August 25, 200916 yr Before yesterday Quentin was on a six game hitting streak. I say its time for him to get his spot back.
August 25, 200916 yr Right now Dye is hitting like Carl did in 05. It took them until what, the middle of September to make that move. Until our backs were up against the wall did Ozzie make that change. Our backs are beyond up against the wall. Dye needs to be moved out. He is providing nothing with the stick, and nothing in the field. Maybe he is tired, maybe he is hurt. I don't know. But its time to make a change.

August 25, 200916 yr I would wait until his average dips below .245 before making the move. Ozzie and I are on the same page.

She's in better shape than about 99.9% of the population. She's only bulky because she's got such muscles from gymanstics. She can be cute, but I don't fall in love with girls under 18 anyway.
August 25, 200916 yr Off topic but I have no idea why guys like that girl in your sig. She's hideous and about 3 years from being overweight. She's definitely not hideous. As much as she's worked out in her life, I doubt she'll get fat. I didn't realize she was't even 18.
