    Apparently Joe isn't tired of our zero-homer first baseman. He's starting today.

    So you bench Dubon/Meyers to play Cubbage in LF and not play him for the slightly better than a rock Abreu? Ugh.

    He is being forced to play Abreu. Has to be the case.

    Good on you Abreu... I know you're hiding inside there; time for you to strut and become the rockstar of this team you signed up to be... break it mash it matters not where just trust it & crush it.
    GET. IT!

    About two weeks too late. Jbreau accumulated -1.4 bWAR in only 73 PA on track for the worst season in Major League history.

    Even if Joey is replacement level, him getting all of Jose's ABs will, on paper, contribute to a 7.5 win swing compared to Jose's ineptitude over a full season.

    PS: Glad to hear that the good Doctor Ron Paul is still alive.

    How many players do we have that throw right but bat left... it just seems more common on this team than in real life... granted, I do the same.
