Yes, because I'm brilliant...

Nice crow spot on 20th May.....I'll try and remember you said this in August.

Someone's getting snippy

Yeah.....looks a lot like me doesn't it?

This guy was talking "scrub" shit a week ago and now wants to take bragging rights, and I'll have none of it.

I will happily eat crow if we can turn this train wreck around...

Goes both ways cowboy.

Our batters do so much guessing at the plate. What happened to see the ball and hit it? We've been caught watching more than I can ever remember.


Chirinos swung but he was guessing too. He was behind a 89MPH fastball that was right down the middle.

What....I can't just disagree with you? Nice system.

Odor's average may not be much but he never seems overmatched.

Like I've said. Magadan's work isn't producing results. Hasn't for over a year. Time to let him go.

Odor's average may not be much but he never seems overmatched.

He makes contact, but he swings too much. I'm sure with time his eye will get better.

We've been noticing this for weeks now. So many called 3rd strikes. Even from guys like Choo who sees the ball really well. Don't know what to make of it.

I may not be exact on this but last night they said that Victor Martinez had not taken a called 3rd strike in over 500 ABs.

Fingers are crossed for June...

Colby finally made it through 6. Too bad he gave up 5 runs but did better the last few innings.

Between Odor and Choice, I really see some young guys with a lot of promise. I kind of expect them to "at times" being over matched" since they really shouldn't be here now to start with.

We've both been preaching that for awhile. I don't like doing the same thing and expecting different results. You would think they would hold someone accountable being near the bottom of the AL in runs scored. It's not just the injuries. They're underachieving, and like you said, not getting results.

Seems to me Magadan is trying to force some hitters to be what they're not. Would love if every hitter could give us at bats like choo does, but that's not everyone's skill set. I think that's a big reason why so many of our hitters look uncomfortable at the plate.

Let MY be the hitting coach. Call it interim for the remainder of the season.

Colby finally closes out a 6th inning, too bad he gave up 5 runs
