No More "Bullpen Failure"
I think a few of us are still on board with sending Choo packing. I have been on board with that even before his terrible start to the season. As far as DD goes it is still way too early to determine if anyone was right or wrong. A lot of bad players put together a few good weeks sometimes. It is still early, but it does appear that I was very wrong about Prince only hitting 20-23 HRs. I think I was in that corner by myself actually. I might be by myself in the corner regarding Elvis also. I still think he is going to be alright eventually.It wasn't long ago there was a call from a few to send Choo packing, and eat $50 million in the process. Bench Elvis, embarrass him, do whatever is necessary, to get his head back in the game. Prince was never going to get his power back, came from a few corners. Why was DeShields even on the 25 man roster? And on and on.
Amazing what a little hot streak will do to adjust our attitudes isn't it?
I am still in favor of giving EA a loud wake up call. But I'm not necessarily on board with the "embarrassment" factor. But maybe, now the team is playing better around him, this will be all the wake-up call he needs.
