I really am tired of our inability to manufacture runs.

I remember last year, on two occasions, that Adrian Gonzalez, he of the high BA and HR and RBI, actually laid down a sacrifice bunt when the Padres needed it. It may have been a stupid call, taking the bat out of perhaps the best hitter in the NL at the time, but the Maxi's were struggling for runs. And Bud Black had him bunt.

Our scrubs aren't even asked/told/commanded to bunt by Noggin.

Cabrera agreed to waive his no-trade clause only if he was never asked to bunt.

FUCK Orlando Cabrera. Seriously, when was the last time that guy was a legitimate player in this league?

Stros beating Slytherin, 7-0.

We could gain some ground, if we could facking hit.

0 for 4 with RISP. scratch that, 0 for 5.

And of course, Rowand hits into the inning ending DP, which would NOT have happened if Noggin would have ordered a sacrifice bunt from his .240 hitting shortstop who seems to think he is Lou Gehrig.

Non-productive out leads to the double-play

OMG, it's Groundhog's Day!

We are doomed to repeat this pattern for a while, friends.

Seriously, if we are going to suck this badly, I'd just as soon give some of the kids playing time, so they'd be that much more experienced next season. They could not do worse than we have seen in the last two weeks.
