  1. AA should get fired for this fact alone: Bases loaded against a division rival. And the three f***ing guys you have coming up are: JPA Izturis Boni And it's not like it's the result of injuries...with Lawrie being the only guy out.
  2. why go to the pen? There is no way we come back from this. Let JJ throw 110 pitches, and who cares about the score.
  3. "biggest contract for a pitcher in the history of baseball"
  4. nothing more painful than watching a couple of struggling pitchers.
  5. good interview Adam is such a difficult guy to read. I have a different (better) impression of him now.
  6. It looks like Reyes is still limping to me?
  7. Or: "Goddammit, why did I get stuck hitting behind Pablo Sandoval!"
  8. More importantly.....predict the October rotation.
  9. Lind clearly had a serious head injury.
  10. Is the BP rested enough to consider yanking RAD if he sturggles early today?
  11. I doubt the trade for Bautista for Profra makes sense. SS is not a long term hole in the org. Sexy player, but a Bautista trade for other holes would make more sense (ie 2nd base). Maybe we flip Bautista and force someone to take salary (MB?), and then use that space to get Cano. as for trading Bautista, all you have to do is say: "with the emergence of Encarnacion, we thought it was a good time to move Bautista". There are other benefits: I think you would see someone more fitting to take over the leadership position. One of the benefits (amongst some drawbacks) of having Rogers, a media company, own the team, is that they are awesome at PR. Perhaps too good, given the hype of the season. But in the case of Bautista, it helps, because the marketing guys can quickly re-frame the team around an Encarnacion and Reyes, and convince the fans to move on from the Bautista love. How many more dingers does Bautista have in his current contract, anyway? 90 over the three seasons? 80? 100?
  12. Jim Negrych would have had that ball. and a hit or two. Just sayin.
  13. AA on Bautista at contract signing: "we are signing the human being as much as the player." nice one!
  14. I think it became clear to AA over the past interleague games that an extra bat off the bench would be helpful.
  15. officiating in the MLB is by far the worst of the Big4 leagues.
  16. "We'll give you Bautista, JJ, and JPA for Profar. Deal?" "I'm sorry we can't do that deal. No way. We'll do Bautista and JJ for Profar."
  17. This is the problem when the media empire also owns the team. The PR side of it become a much bigger concern.
  18. how did AA mess up so bad on his assessment of Izturis. Can't hit, and a s*** fielder.
  19. Why I am not shocked that Boni and JPA screwed us.
  20. Dont you usually hit and run on a guy that can make contact. Rasmus is either homer or hit a home run.
  21. Occam's Razor suggests that it's simply age, although it's probably a combination of factors, like most things. But I think a big part of it is him simply losing it.
  22. The team would have been better off without the deep pockets of Rogers. It would be continuing to build organically. "All-in" is so easy to screw up.
