Its Lenny Harris' fault? Come on. His ML performance really has no bearing on whether he can be a good hitting coach or not. They're promoting a guy who is really from the Dusty Baker school of thought where being overly agressive is good.

Lou brought him in because he already have up winning this game. I don't blame him though. This team always finds a way to make huge mistakes which cost them runs. It is absolutely pathetic. He certainly shouldn't have given up winning a game down two runs in a hitter's park. That's absurd. Second, Eyre has pitched in many close games, surely Lou hadn't given up winning all those too? This is only Eyre's 4th appearance in the past 2 1/2 weeks. One of those was the final out of a 7-1 win, and 1 of those was in extra innings when the Cubs were running out of pitchers. Lou hasn't been using him in many close games lately. I'll stand corrected. It just seems like he pitches all the time. However, that's "giving up on winning this game" would be moronic. I seriously, seriously doubt that entered Lou's mind. It's a hitter's park and it was a two-run game in the sixth. Yeah, I bet that CCP also doesnt think that it actually entered Lou's mind, but its a coment on how bad Eyre has been and that it seems stupid to bring him in to a tight game that we still have a chance in. And now that we have come back a little it looks like it was. CCP didn't say that. I was refuting something another poster said. My bad, I looked at the quotes and thought it was CCP. But what I said still stands for the poster. EDIT: Great, that was my 5000th post. What a waste.

There's a reason that the Nationals are last in the league and just won their TENTH game. This is one of them.

At least we still get to face teh Philly bullpen. This is a bullpen that has Fat Alf on it...

Don't pull a Texas please. They just loaded the bases with one out and had Young line out and Texiera strike out, with Sosa on deck.

The team does have 1 on the season. It's going to be tough going now. Yeah, and that one was a mistake.

I don't know where he is, dickwad, but I do think Pagan is starting because Lou doesn't want Jones facing the lefty Hamels, plus Jones needs a couple days off.

Sori homer

Kaiser Chiefs, good band.

At least Bob showed up.

Trade the hack already.

Ohman seems to have forgotten, again, that you're supposed to throw strikes.

2 in three AB's! 9. 9 pitches. or 3 an ab...

If Fick comes up, someone needs to peg him in the head.

I would suggest hiding, but that probably won't help, the Kenties will find you anyways.

He got lucky to get that one.

What name change?
