I've never seen another team besides the Cubs collapse in such a way. It's amazing. No matter how well the day is going they are always 1 inning away from blowing the game.

What if we move Floyd to the #3 spot and move D. Lee to #4 spot? Lee is struggling.

 

What could this solve?

 

what you do is when ramirez gets back you bat ramirez 3 floyd 4 lee 5

 

No, you bat Lee 2, Floyd 3, Aramis 4, Pie 5

 

 

NO NO NO NO, DO NOTTTTTTTT MESS WITH PIE, LEAVE HIM AT 2!!!

 

His profile fits better lower in the order. You want to maximize runs, you move Pie down. You want more "exciting" baseball, you leave him where he is.

 

how do u figure putting a power hitter at 2 and a contact hitter at 5 will create more runs? thats backwards

Power Hitter? Is it 2005 again?

 

ok but Pie isnt gonna get big power out of nowhere, and when ur Lee's size the balls are going to start leavin the park. Lee has more chance to start hitting homers than Pie does

No he isn't going to magically start hitting homers again just because he is tall. Since his wrist injury he has been sapped of most of his power.

 

lee isnt just tall, he is huge and muscular, if ur as good of an average hitter as Lee and are that big it SHOULD only be a matter of time for him to start launching balls. He wont be a 40 homer guy, but 25-30 is what he can do, i mean thats what kind of power hitter he has been his whole career minus 1 year

that is crap--Ibanaez could have wrapped into an inning ending DP just as easily. SOme of you guys just always say the negative and then say you are always right because I never hear anyone saying good job when the "good"decision is made!!

 

 

 

Sorry but I put that one on Lou. I'm listening on the radio and I could see that Marquis was finished.

It is on Lou. Everyone knew Marquis had to come out.

 

I didn't.

 

They weren't hitting him. He got what should have been an inning ending DP. He hadn't thrown that many pitches. I don't see how you can assume he's done there.

Yeah one year when he hurt his wrist. I think Lee hits 15-20 homers.

And you know what's gonna happen here? If Weaver gets in any trouble, they'll pull him for the M's excellent bullpen arms.

How many freakin times this year have we failed to score the guy from 2nd on a base hit...

 

now we have Jones...might as well be two out.
