Everybody else has taken a beating with these series thought I might as well join in.

Taking on a lot with that title, Wastin. At least these should be more competitive games. If we can't beat this team at least once here, man, it's going to be a long season.

Yeah, I know. It may seem like a long one already.

At this point, I just hope we don't lose 100 games. At the same time, a top 10 protected pick would be nice.

Lets just call it blind optimism.

Surprised Sardinas playing third here and no Choice. Choo needs to have complete days off sometimes.

Tired of Choice. He needs to go back down as soon Aducci returns.

Herd he broke another finger. He has 8 more to go

Lets call in The Family. They can take care of the rest of those fingers.

I think that is the best place for him. Just out options are limited in the 3 hole.

Will someone please hide his hammer.

Please tell me you guys are just playing.....Please.

We need Adduci here and MC in the minors in some kind of big way. I'm afraid MC is being damaged, mentally, by being so over matched.

I'm all for seeing what the "youngsters" can do. But if they aren't doing it - Choice certainly falls into this category - then don't let their confidence get destroyed for an extended period of time playing against the best players in baseball IMO.

Just playing around. Haven't heard anything on Adducci. But I would believe we would have some word as to when he would be available.

I know back on June 11 JD stated it would 3-4 weeks.
