Yeah, because we have a hard time making needed decisions like sending a guy down like Ogando.

In fairness....our MASH unit is in such a shape, I can't totally blame the decision making process here.

But the time has come to send Alexi down and be happy about it.

Maybe this is what this season is destine to be; one giant experiment. Send guys up & down, get some young guys a little time up here so they can at least feel the ML experience.

Ya know what? I'm really fatigued with hearing our "vaulted" announcing crew make the other pitchers sound like Hall-of-Famers.

Granted, Buehrle is really good. But then again, we're making everyone look really good and they're not.

Naw....we're snake bit, and there were a bunch of snakes.

Our scouts and FO have done a good job of keeping the system ready. But man, no organization could prepare for this carpet bombing we're experiencing.

I wasn't really talking about just this year. We couldn't even send Kirkman down after one lousy game after another. It eventually came down to a DL. Same with Scheppers being moved back to the pen.

If I could get Nadel & Dish/FSSW to sync up properly... I'd be in heaven.

MM swings at ball 4 then watches strike 3. This teams approach is awful. FIRE MAGADAN ALREADY

Bosley was let go in June... If anything happens with Magadan - i'd expect it to happen in June.

The good news is the X-Rays are negative on Ogando's hand. But there's "absolutely" no reason whatsoever to not send his ass outta here tonight.

Heavens man.....when he ain't walking them, they're hitting about .330 against him.

Send his ass packing and make no excuses about it.

Gallo with another HR tonight. After being walked a few times.

Dude is on fire.

Need to get this guy up to Frisco soon. We need a DH. In fact he couldn't do much worse that what we have gotten out of DH but I know that would not be the right thing to do with Gallo. But my frustration with this offense makes me throw caution to the wind.

Single single single or the very rare HR. Those are pretty much the only ways we score. Without checking the numbers I would guess we're at the bottom of the league in doubles, and total extra base hits.

Meanwhile the BP fails us again...although agreed, that double was a piece of crap...

I can't believe Beltre isn't hitting close to his usual .300 yet
