Queen Prawn Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Lately I have been reading alot of posts about whether this team has heart or not. Personally, I think they have plenty of that particular commodity. I think they lack in the balls and brains department myself. Which one (or is it all of the above) do you think tbey lack?

Chisoxfn Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 I'd say Brains. I say most of the everyday players play with heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyKongerko Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Olivo definitely needs a brain. Swinging at 3-1 breaking balls in the dirt with the bases loaded in Tampa Bay. Fielding bunts down the line and trying to get men out at third too much. Maggs needs some heart. He is our all star and I think he needs to act like he cares a little bit more. Maggs needs to get in a fight or get ejected or something. Courage? I don't know who needs courage. These guys all go out there and take s*** from alot of the fans about poor performance. If anyone needs a courage boost I say it's Jon Garland. He seems to get rattled when teams get consecutive hits off of him and starts falling behind in the count alot. Courage to throw sinkers over the plate and get double play balls like he was getting earlier this season. Who has the best in all three of these categories? Hard to say it but this year I think Carlos Lee has made huge strides in the brain department. Sure he made a couple of boneheaded plays in the outfield but not nearly as many as before. He has also started more than one late inning rally with a clutch double here or there. He's still probably one of the dumber players on this team but I see progress.
