I've seen AAA lineups with better 4-9 hitters.

I've seen AAA lineups with better 4-9 hitters.

how do you suggest farrell situate the lineup w/ bats, jp and lind on the DL? should we call up mcdade or hech?

[SharoneWright]

I like my Coco Crisp...

[s e n s i]

colby is so adept at bunting. very very skilled, probably the best on the team in this regard imo

[BigLeagueChew]

When Gose learns to hit...

[s e n s i]

this skid is starting to feel like the 10-gamer that put us out of our misery a couple years back

[SharoneWright]

Pooper Cooper.

[BigLeagueChew]

Yeah Cliff Lee is horrible, he only has 1 win. Thanks Buck. He's really 2-6 but yeah let's use wins to judge pitchers.

[spykelee]

Bartolo Colon eating us up, boy that doesn't happen often...
