I think Piniero might finish a lot of games that are not save situations. They'll help him hit his incentives so he doesn't become disgruntled. He looked good tonight, but it's hard to judge anything against KC.
My biggest criticism was that the FO had no backup plan if he wasn't ready. Look at the young pitchers. They are still not ready, but we had other options.
OMG, Lowell with 3 errors in one game. Will he go on the DL? The KC announcers at the start of the game mentioned how he rarely makes an error. Now they are saying that it is hard to believe that they could have jinxed him that much. He looks like Yaz at 3rd tonight.
He still needs to shorten his swing. He can swing hard, but he can't have a long swing or it will be exploited by the pitchers. Tonight the swing didn't look that long. Maybe he is adjusting.
Teahen is very good, Sweeney is a great hitter, and Dejesus isn't bad, neither Grudz. If Sweeny can stay healthy and the rookie Gordon comes throught, they'll be better than they have been in years.
