Did Robinson Tejeda hit on Hillman's wife or something?

I guess Tejeda + Olivo would be a scary combo… for Olivo

I'm not a sabermetrician, but I do play one at Driveline Mechanics.

Jamey Always Gets

A grounder before he blows up. This one worked nicely.

We Needed A

Few more players chasing that popup.

Totally predictable

We need two more first basement and an extra right fielder.

Did I just say

“first basement?”
I may have had a cocktail.

That bloop in right

last inning really hurts now.

So we've got three members of the 100 K club now...

Teahen, Jacobs, Olivo have all wiffed 100 times!!!

Yay milestones!

Jacobs vs RHP would be ok, right?

Particularly with Spork able to play SS?

by sterlingice on Aug 22, 2009 10:36 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I'll bet

Teahan has broken more hearts with his K’s, though.

Is Jacobs hurt or something

there is no excuse for letting Anderson hit otherwise. My grandma could have hit a routine grounder to second in that situation…

by stram#1 on Aug 22, 2009 10:38 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Seriously...

Trey decided Anderson was the best guy for the job there?

by LaFLamme on Aug 22, 2009 10:39 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

We need to give him a look

Apparently DMGM wants him to be our full-time CF. Can’t wait for that next year.

its gonna be fun

by Will McDonald on Aug 22, 2009 10:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Looking forward to it.

After all, DDJ isn't a true CF.

Trey.

Trey gets the loss

Yanking Davies in favor of Mahay? Doing nothing with the late inning batting options? We’re all astounded by his ineffectiveness as a manager.

My wife

who knows less about the Royals than Hillman does. Watched somebody step into the batter’s box with the tying run on first and said “That had better be Jacobs”. When my wife has a better baseball IQ than the guy running the team changes have to be made.
