Well, he's not playing every day (Santiago has played almost as often at short) and the conditions are more comparable when he was playing half...
I think the difficult part is shifting philosophy. A lot of fans would get frustrated in the short-term no matter what fans like you and I think....
Just to be fair, they expanded the playoffs from 4 teams to 8 teams in 1995, right about the time McLane took over. I'm not using this as an...
I agree with your point about Blum and Boone which I was getting at when I mentioned Johnson + Manzella in my previous post. The point I was...
I don't like Jerome Solomon. It's not just that he's not a homer. Feigen is a total homer/mouthpiece and I can't stand his stuff. No need...
Tejada is barely hitting better than the average NL shortstop (sort by wOBA):...
OP, it's cool that you are high on this guy but if he's so awesome why hasn't he been able to stick anywhere? Other teams saw him up close and let...

I really don't know enough to judge him on a baseball level. I guess what I should have said earlier is that there is something that bothers me...

Speak of the devil. Another meaningless Pence HR. Makes sense though. Pitchers are aggressive with big leads. Well, they're supposed to be.
Well done, Sammy! You stuck your finger in the dike.
JD: "It's Sammy Gervacio's turn to see if he can stick his finger in the dike." Funny.
You really do have to wonder. I saw Dewey laughing it up in the dugout when it was 2-0, Astros. I wonder how he looks right now.
Yea, he pulled in some big pieces but I've read he had tons of failures, too. And he still got fired... and choked by one of his own players....
Make that 16 hits, the most recent a HR to a guy having his first major league AB.
Bazardo and Lopez have collectively given up 12 runs on 15 hits and 5 walks through 5 and a third. Ouch.
Carlos Lee just ran as hard as he has all season and made a pretty impressive catch. My guess is that's the last time we'll see him run that hard....
