Seeing Kemp strike out on a pitch 3 feet outside and hit into a double play tonight has brought back some memories.

Ender has sucked all year at the plate...but with his defense you cant bench him.


Ozzie has flat out sucked for about a month now.

Ozzie can bitch all he wants to, but he's the one that started to swing on a head high pitch, He's become useless since teas figured out he can't lay off the high fastball. Jeff Francoeur syndrome. Learn. Please fucking learn.

I'm about at the point where I'd bat Dansby leadoff and bat Camargo second. The leadoff spot has been horrible for over a month now, and it's a big reason why our offense has regressed.

Way to work through it, Winkler. Got it done and it worked out good since the big bats are cleared.

Don't know what Bellinger is so mad about.

The 2-1 pitch was a strike and was called a strike. And Hernandez has been ringing up checked swings all night. You ain't special, hoss.

Big win. With Newk going tomorrow, I like our chances to take the series.

Weird game. 7 hits with RISP, but only 5 runs.

Good Win but Our #1and #2 spots gotta pick it up. (Dansby seems to be doing well at #2, so hopefully he is the fix.)

Ozzie has just been awful the last month if its A High Fastball close he swings. And also Ive started to notice this the last week, his delivery is slow as fuck when throwing.

At some point, we're gonna have to give Ozzie a couple of games off. Him being in the leadoff spot and not ever getting on base is killing this offense.

I'm honestly wondering if he's coachable, because his issues are pretty clear and he's just not making the adjustments. If he doesn't start learning, we might even have to option him down for a week or two.

With Ozzie and Inciarte, we basically have 3 pitchers spot in the lineup right now and it's been this way for over a month.

It's like when we had Dan Uggla and BJ Upton in the lineup.

Back to back strikeouts to end the frame. I think it takes Newk a batter or two to get dialed in.

But at least Dan Uggla did take a shit ton of walks.

Enders troubles is just a patience thing IMO...Ozzies swing is broken IMO.
