Jones not lookin so good today

 

Get used to it.

 

Yea we should write him off after 1 reach on an error going to the opposite field, a fly out to the opposite field warning track/wall, 1 rbi, 1 misjudged ball, and 1 K.

 

That and his really bad previous two years, his mediocre one the year before that, and his only moderately good one coming way back in 2002... and he barely topped an 850 OPS in that season

Well, it's been a few years since he's been any good. He strikes out a lot, doesn't walk much, and doesn't hit for as much power as you'd want out of a corner outfielder who strikes out that much.

 

Not to write him off, but he's got a lot to prove.

Same thing year after year. Our starters can't hold leads and we waste opportunities with our offense.

I picked the wrong time to start watching this game.

 

Second year in a row that Z doesn't make it out of the 5th on Opening Day?

 

oh, and 57 pages for this game? Yikes

Jacque Jones coming out on the double switch? I love you Dusty!!!

 

I thought for sure that Murton was coming out when I saw Dusty walking out with his lineup card.

Does this really need to start 5 innings into the season?

 

Well do you really sense a change?
