Not that it applies to this at bat...

but if the batter in front of Olivo is walked then Olivo should get to walk to, like in Coed softball

On the bright side,

having Jacobs has allowed (forced) Butler to play everyday, and in the field, too. So, he is getting all the playing time we could ask for and producing fairly well.

Not to sound mean. but why are you still here

 I quit…..

Watching this team brings me way too much grief. Fuck it. This team top to bottom is horrific. We just have to face the facts that they suck. Terrible Defense, terrible offense, terrible manager, etc., etc., Im done…… til tom sadly enough. Even i might not watch tom -2LegittoShit

I guess cause Im as big a fan as the rest of us that watch this putrid shit everyday.........

Thanks for the quote though. Why are you calling me out? Are you mad about the game and thought this would make ya feel better. Everyone here gets frustrated right? How many other ppl have said theyre done today? Gimme a break buddy. Whatever helps I guess…..

by focs on Jun 20, 2009 8:08 PM EDT up reply actions  

Well its cool man haha

I just really have trouble watching this team everyday when i see no strong moves to change things up. For instance, HoRam on the roster 2-3 weeks to long (if ever being on the roster was good), Davies has won 2 of his 12 starts and we just now make a move. The moves arent strong and are perpetually late. I know the talent pool is weak and injuries arent helping but its tough to watch this team just have nowhere to turn. Literally, everyday i go from one extreme to the other lasing this team for being stagnant and then having the realization that there is not much to do. Not good enough to make trades. Not deep enough to punish the premadonnas in the lineup. Its like being tied up and have water drip on your forehead 162 times.

Nasty Sewage Water that is

I know. Its fucking pathetic.. i say the same thing everyday to my friends.. The trades and moves this offseason have really proved how poor of a franchise is.. Going from Glass to Dayton to Hillman. its a joke.

According to Mark Bowman at MLBlogs, the Royals retain interest in Braves OF Jeff Francoeur and are keeping an eye on him this weekend. However, Bowman notes that if a deal were to happen, the Braves might have to be willing to assume the $12MM owed to Jose Guillen.

Guillen is owed another $12MM in 2010 before his contract expires. The Royals’ interest in Francoeur is well known, though supposedly not everyone in the KC front office is keen on him. It isn’t clear if the Braves would be willing to add any payroll, let alone any payroll that would involve a potential headcase like Guillen.

I’d trade Hosey for a crossdresser these days
