  1. He basically has to be until Guzman comes back.
  2. Sounds like Lou and he had an argument in the clubhouse.
  3. Oh yeah, I fogot, hes struggling, as opposed to whatever the hell it is that Fontenots doing. Isn't he sitting because he tweeked his wrist and probably bruised the [expletive] out of his thigh?
  4. Puff-puff, give, [expletive].
  5. Its hard telling when Geo smoked it for one, and for 2, where does Geo spend his offseason? It could be legal there. Lastly, who cares. Yeah. Why would we be upset that he was smoking weed and devouring cases of Cheetos instead of preparing for the season? He's playing just fine, right? He's actually playing very well lately. You really think pot = baseball decline? Everyone's been crying about how fat he is this year, right? It's not a stretch to think that his weight issues could be related to smoking weed. I'm inclined more to think it has to do with him always being big.

  7. Leadoff double for Sori down the LF line.
  8. Problem is, Bradley really hasnt been struggling lately. He hasnt lived up to expectaions, but hes been doing fine for himself. He's 0-10 with 4 K's in his last 10 PA In Bradley's last 13 PA's, he has a .538 OBP. I don't get the benching. Isn't it because his wrist is sore after making that attempt at a diving catch last night?
  9. I agree that pitchers can readjust to him, but he's so obviously gone back to his old approach as opposed to sticking with the changes and not getting results.
  10. Co-query. It really doesn't make any sense. Last year it definitely was a case of the league figuring him out, but this year it seems more like he's allowed his approach to regress to what it was last year.
  11. It wasn't nonsense. He clearly had made some adjustments in his approach at the plate. His swing wasn't as "wild," or whatever anyone wants to call it. He seem to be timing his swing better and planting his foot before following through, cutting down on the "Fukucopter." It would still show up at times when he struck out, but by and large he clearly improved his hitting with how he was driving the ball much more.
  12. It is. An impact bat has to be added to this lineup somehow. I'm not sure who or where, or if it's even possible, but short of that happening and Aramis providing something when he comes back, this team is toast. This team doesn't have worst-in-baseball type talent, but they've gotten worst-in-baseball results RISP. There's got to be an easier way to fix that than bringing in an expensive player. I agree, but I'm stumped. The gulf between being able to get guys on and then do next to nothing with them has just gotten absurd.
  13. It was at home. And against some pretty terrible pitchers compared to Porcello and Jackson, and the Det bullpen. That too. I still just don't get why they can't seal the deal. It's not like they're being shut down by these guys. They're getting on base and then...what? Why is everyone forgetting how to hit with RISP? It's baffling. Ive really never seen anything like it, its mind boggling. I know Aram has been real good with RISP in his career, but my God he cant make this much difference. Right. This is making Aramis look like a Pujols-like player, and we all know he's nowhere near that. It would be one thing if they just stunk in general and couldn't put together anything against pitchers, but we keep seeing these games with 10+ runners OB and minimial runs scored. It's ridiculous.
