vs. DIAMONDBACKS, 8/14

[Ori-Al]

They take advantage of the free baserunners. And they throw Hill another fastball. Moronic pitch calling.

Finally. The bullpen is screwed, the offense can't hit a beach ball...scratch that. This offense couldn't hit the ball off a tee right now with runners in scoring position.

Our team might be average, but you guys are great. Over 1000 posts in an afternoon start and a demoralizing loss. Thank God for a day off tomorrow.

Let the JJ mayhem begin...

We rightfully lost that game. Sometimes you deserve to lose ball games. This was one of them. This team is starting to look a lot like the 85 win team I thought they were when the season started.

The way they're playing, they look more like a 70-win team right now.

We couldn't get out Goldy and Hill pretty much was the difference.

[MDK02]

Aaron Hill is the best 2nd baseman in the league, no question.

[ChinMusic]

LOL...

I rarely (never) agree with Birdland, but he's right this time. This team is done.

Look who's catching. It's quickly becoming known that Wieters may not be the game caller that some people think he is.

[Ori-Al]

And go to who exactly? You realize once you go to Bud you are committed to him for at least 3 innings. Win or lose. YOu suggest we burn another starter???

Adair is the pitching coach.

I can't wait for the day when Johnson is DFAed.

Yeah, but they had a nice head start.

[jjnono]

14-21 in one run games this year, as compared to 29-9 last year. That's a hell of a swing...

It's just been a rough few weeks. They're still in it. I'm not ready to jump off the roof yet. I'm certainly not ready to fire Buck as some have suggested...I disagree with how he's handled the bullpen, but his pros outweigh his cons overall.

[ChinMusic]

Haha, touche!
