Thank God for Moreland hitting both RH and LHP or we'd have MY at 1b still.

Wash doesn't want to use prospects ... and Buzz made his little pitch early in the game how it wasn't fair to the prospects to get thrown into the middle of it ... and not fair to the other players. Like crappy play from MY and IK is fair.

Guess Wash came up with this philosophy that announcers say is what Wash has always felt based on his experience as a player.

Apparently he didn't remember that was his experience and philosophy until after burning any talent that Chris Davis or Julio Borbon had by forcing them onto the field (or DH in the case of Borbon) every night.

Wash's "philosophies" are whatever suits his assinine decisions at the moment. JD needs to remove him from this staff this winter.

Hopefully his piss poor management and lineups don't cost us the world series until then.

3 runs against Everett Teaford and Vin Mazzarro, and that was all on one swing. Can we please treat AAA pitchers like the minor leaguers they are?

Dempster is all over the middle of the plate.

Young has been teasing like that for a while now, then I go look at his numbers and he still has basically the same cruddy numbers he's had since June, he's just trading HRs for doubles at this point

It's promising to see some pop in his bat though. Physically he may be coming out of this awful funk but he's got to change his approach at the plate so he's not always jumping at the first pitch he sees and swinging off his front foot. I honestly think its plate discipline as much as anything now. Look at his walks this season. That's an awful number.

Mitch just needs to keep doing what he's doing to get starts in October.

Mitch Moreland creamed that ball

Seems to be hitting LHPs with a bit more authority this year, he's actually hitting mistakes

Yeah. If wash doesn't make him a mainstay in October that will solidify my opinion that he needs to go this winter.

Moreland, for defensive and offensive purposes, needs to be the 1B in NL parks, with Young drinking a nice cup of STFU on the bench

And honestly, even in AL parks, Murphy needs to be DHing while Gentry mans CF, defense is at a premium in the playoffs, even a "casual" fan can see this

Yeah, but we all know Young will at the very least be in the dh spot every game. I just hope he let's Mitch play the NL parks if it gets to that point. MY could actually be a good pinch hitter option coming off the bench when you need a righty that will most likely make some contact.

:L

Once again MY swings at the first pitch off his front foot and kills a potentially big inning.
