O goody! Kotsay's back in the 5th spot!

You're comparing a pile of rock hard crap with a bowl of diarrhea.

 

Must remove visual from head before lunch is lost.....ughhhh

I know he's gotten on base a couple times the last two games, but Kotsay batting 5th still makes me chuckle. Rios should be batting higher (or switch he and the struggling Beckham)

Just a regular day off for CQ, or is the hammy bothering him again?

O goody! Kotsay's back in the 5th spot!

 

so we are back to the same crap lineup we had to start the season. havent we learned anything yet?

If that NY series didn't make Ozzie drop Becks down in the order...My God what does it take?

Why in the world would you want Beckham lower?

Beckham is our golden boy and the team is counting on him. Team will go nowhere without him. Leave him be and let him hit.

Because his mechanics are so screwed up right now that based on your standards, this team is going no where because he's not going to start hitting.

So you want him to be in the lineup but lower? He's still in our godawful lineup. What the f*** difference does it make where he bats?

We can't bat everybody ninth.

Frankly, I think he needs either a few days off to do nothing but work with the pitching coach or a stint in AAA. Might snap out of it on his own with regular playing time, but it's not just in his head right now, it's fully mechanical.

What the f*** difference does it make where he bats?

Since you don't think lineups matter, you'd be ok with something like this?

Hmm... to perhaps give him a lesser PA (horrid OBP) since he's hurting us right now with the bat more-so than helping us? How bout to help him get in a better pitch recognition to hit in? Or maybe this might be it, to get him to focus more on giving better at-bats (even Pierre was doing that in the 9 spot) than striking out at an alarming rate with the usual 1 or 2 out, nobody on base? Just a hunch. I personally think he needs a day or two off mentally myself however.

Flip Kotsay and AJ. I think it'd be better to have our two fastest guys hitting 1-2.

We can't move everybody down!!!

So, you got R, R, L repeated three times!

Updated lineup for today's game on page 2.

I'm not quite sure what exactly a "Justin Beiber" is, but apparently there's one throwing out the first pitch at the Cell tonight.

You know you are a huge fan.

Maybe he can steal away some of Gordon's girls so he can concentrate on hitting.

Teahen gets moved back to the bottom of the order where he had been hot before moving up,.

I bet he throws like a girl...

Ozzie just doesn't get it. What has Pierre done outside of one game this week that proves he's learned his lesson? What has Beckham done to prove he should still be hitting second?

Learned his lesson? What lesson does Pierre need to learn at his age?
