Yea, I think Colton will be in Norfolk by weeks end.

With Cedric and Hicks coming back soon, he and McKenna could be optioned.

He’s been nothing short of embarrassing since joining the club. Being honest.

A rookie struggling with less than 100 ab's is not embarrassing.  It is in fact kind of normal to be honest.

He leaned in and looked that pitch into the C's mitt as if it were his job to observe it, not hit it.

[Jagwar]

Need a big fly here

[Malike]

I'm digging O'Hearn, but he seems to hit the ball just hard enough to make you think it's going to be HR then falls short.

[Yossarian]

Time for a Weaver Special from OHearn 

[Moose Milligan]

Time for a piss missile.

Another Melaniism: "Can Santander take it home for the league?" (The Heart & Hustle award, I think.)

A rookie hitting like a pitcher is kind of borderline embarassing to me.

Struggling to the tune of like .600 OPS is typical rookie struggling.  .425 is a little more than that.

[O's84]

Just missed balls are killing us.

[Moose Milligan]

Goddamit.

[LA2]

O'Hearn looking pissed at the high & tight and determined to slam the ball--and does what Malike sd he wd.

[Bemorewins]

O’Hearn just missed tying the game there.

He’s batting under .100. No matter who you are that is embarrassing.
