Two f***ing hits against the Indians. Thats scary bad

 

I thought this new and improved ozzieball offense was supposed to grind out hits and runs. That Kotsay in the 5h hole is definitely awesome.

They scored 3 runs on only 1 hit. That's not Ozzieball enough for you?

When does the Greg Walker talk start?

 

I'll think I'll go on hiatus to avoid it.

I don't think anybody's going to be all pissed at Greg Walker when you have guys like Kotsay and Teahen doing what they do

The whole bottom of our lineup sucks. It's not just Kotsay unfortunately. I wish it were.

That one hit was a home-run. We live in a confusing world.

gotta love blowing the 3-0 lead

It was also against a red-hot Carmona in rainy, 39-degree weather.

 

Kotsay gets a lot of hate, but when there is only one guy that got a hit that left the in field and all of your RBI's against the Indians, there is plenty of blame to go around. With that said, I do hate watching Kotsay in the 5th spot, especially thinking about how that could (or should) be Jim Thome

I blame Southsider2k5. Warrior started opening day, and we won.

Ozzie asked to take the brunt of the blame this year if things go south. i suggest we honor that request.

Our lefthanded hitters are hitting an amazing 2-26 so far.

 

Lefties not named AJ are hitting an amazing 0-18.

Six walks. That should be enough to get things going.

At least we don't have 4 righties hitting in a row.

Too early to start up the Agon trade talks?

You'd think, but it's not like this team has historically torn the cover off the ball early in the season either.

 

This lineup obviously isn't going to score 850 runs, but I wouldn't put too much stock in this game... or the entire month of April, for that matter.

I want him so bad!

Twins and Tigers should win tonight. And I have no idea why I'm scoreboard watching already.

On the bright side, Paulie is on pace to hit 162 dingers this year. . .

I don't want to harp on this, but with Ryan Westmoreland having brain surgery and the Red Sox having trouble getting rid of Lowell, i'd say we're the favorites at the moment. That being said, i think Jared Mitchell going down was a huge deal as it kind of forces the direction that the package has to go in.

I'd have no issues moving Dank2, Hudson, Flowers, Viciedo, or any other prospects.

we just need a new DH and BAD! I think we can all see that Kotsay is not gonna work out and they even said that A. Jones will rarely DH.

well...that was painful.

 

Thornton is a god. but the indians had a good game plan vs. peavy - take a lot of pitches. The dude just cannot do anything unless he's thrown 8 pitches per at bat. And then they looked low and hey.

 

But yeah, when our 2-3-4 aren't doing anything, we're f***ed.

when Putz, Thornton and hopefully Jenks are in we will be money, other then those guys, its gonna be shaky.

Unless the Sox get a real DH or Jones becomes Andruw of old, we're boned.
