  1. Unreal. I would've sent him just because we aren't gonna score here anyways.
  2. Haha I thought the same thing. It's been 99 years and I've been alive for 20 of those. I'm perfectly fine with it being easy.
  3. Sacrifice Bunts are sometimes good ideas. If Luke Scott had bunted, there would be two people in scoring position with one out. He did not and they had to give up two outs just to get the runners over. You're right, and had we had runners on 1st and 2nd, no out, last night it probably would've been a good idea. But you don't sac bunt with a guy who has only 1 GIDP since he came here, is hitting .289, and doesn't strike out very often. I realize that, I did not say it was a good idea with Kendall, I was saying that sacrifice bunts are not all evil. Derwood didn't say they were all evil either, but okay.

  5. not as awesome as back to back to back walks!
  6. I hate when our pitchers have to bunt. They are terrible.
  7. Z is in center and Dempster is catching tonight.
  8. 100 pitches later, we're going go the second!
  9. Can we stop this? We all know it's not going to happen. They basically promised Soriano the leadoff spot, and he sucked those two games he wasn't there, so Lou is going to go off that. I don't agree with it either, but Soriano is our leadoff man for the rest of the year. I love how "he sucked in the 5th spot because he wasn't comfortable", but nothing is mentioned by Lou when Soriano is terrible in the lead-off spot. I know it's not going to change. Doesn't mean that it's not stupid. Oh I know, I agree with you. I'd love to see Soriano moved down in the order too, but at this point in the season I'm not expecting it to happen. If it does, I'll be shocked. Nice catch DeRosa!
