This Maxwell kid just might be a keeper. He DOMINATED this series!

I was, that is WAS, worried about a sweep the other way! YAY for us!

P.S. posted 10 minutes ago but browser Klunked!

For all Aoki's presumed patience, his at bats today have sucked.

Man on 3rd, no out. Do we score? Against the Dogs?

Seaweed had an awful day at the plate. Just terrible.

These players really play hard and Pence is coming back. What happens to Maxwell when he gets back. You have to be proud of this team. They never give up..never give up.

It's still concerning that we are not scoring much, but heck, a sweep's a sweep, and nothing's finer than a sweep against the Dodgers.

I think A-O-K and Oxy will be getting more down time (and Herk as well - it was stated that they were going to try to give him 5-10 games off this season anyway). Maxwell will need to continue to play out of his skull to become more than the #4, but as it is, he has cemented his position as the #4 (more of a 3.75, in actuality).

If he keeps this up they might have to platoon him with Aoki when Pence comes back...start him vs lefties, leadoff Pagan those days. Can Maxwell pay center if (when) Pagan gets hurt?

Wasnt he signed because he had the ability to play all 3 OF positions?

From what I have seen, he does not look like a CF, but he is playing RF in one of the toughest parks to play RF, so maybe he would do fine.

As some have said here, there is no way A-O-K can keep up his torrid pace. If this is true, that will likely be the natural spot for Maxwell to slide into.

However, if A-O-K can't keep it up, neither can Maxwell.

In fact, in his career, Maxwell has played more innings in center field than he has LF and RF combined.

Broken Tron on the bump.

6-5 good guys; Biggie comes in after Tron moundshattery and locks down the doyers so we can come back.

I'm going to the game; G-d help us all.

Tron stepped up BIG TIME today. And FYWW continues to excel.

I going to assume this game was approved.

Rumors of Vogey's demise were...well, you know the rest.

I approve of the game, the result, and Tron's effort.

However, Tron is broken until proven otherwise. Timmah had a nice 6 game stretch last season too; we all remember how THAT turned out.
