This series with the ChiSox is a good testing barometer to see where we are at right now competing with a pretty well rounded ballclub.
Would be nice to win the series with Ray and Gilbert tossin' games #2 and #3.
An alarming number of strikeouts up and down our batting order. Would like to see more hard hit balls put in play.
2 hits in yesterdays game with the Twins is inexcusable. We made Bundy look like a Cy Young candidate yesterday.
And he has a losing career W/L record and a career ERA hovering near 5.0
The one move I would make (I would not have made this move in the first place) is to put Crawford back at the leadoff spot. He is a high energy guy and Frazier has hit a ton of pop ups.
Stop us if this seems familiar: a talented Phillies prospect has struggled defensively and seems like a good change-of-scenery candidate. Why not have that scenery be the great PNW (again)?
Liked Brash's start today. But damn, this offense kinda blows doesn't it? I really thought they'd take a step forward this year, not so through 5 games.
