September 15th Vs Oakland

[ORS]

Tonight's loss, on an island, doesn't bother me too much. However, the defensive woes and cold bats that we have seen the last two weeks are a cause for some concern though. They just aren't playing like a team that is headed toward the playoffs. Even some of the wins have been ugly.

 

They need to turn it around by the time they head into Baltimore after the Tampa series. That kind of play won't get the job done against the O's and Jay's. If the sloppy play continues, they could be chasing both the NYY for the division and Cleveland for the WC during that last week at Fenway.

hey guys, woke up and realized my bad dream was actual reality. still though curt allowed just 4 runs on 11 hits and 2 walks, his pitching and defense behind him kept that in check. this frigging offensive slump has to change especially tek who is starting to drop towards the .280's now. haha one quick question, everyone around me by 3rd base sideline seats were all saying wtf when payton actually tried to tag from 1st to 2nd. Why would you test Trot's arm like that?
