well i would hate to leave the bad empty and he and Middlebrooks are the only ones i think are struggling slightly.. that is why they are in the bad and not the ugly.
following Becketts footsteps seems like, instead of being angry at himself for not covering the 1st base or giving balks he keeps saying so what.. i loved him as a long reliever when we need 3-4 innings out of him.. but he is pushing his luck..
i hear ya. and Lowrie never stayed healthy with us. but is hitting of the charts right now.
Brandon Moss is the Nava type player cashing in because he is given an oppurtunity.
Reddick is the only guy i missed last season. again its part of the business and i understand that but would hate to see these 3 guys do well against us. anybody but us and i would be happy.
the good thing is in the 2 series we lost against Os or the KC Royals we were in it or could have had a chance to win both of those series.. unlike last year once we were down it was just downhill from there.
but to make us better these are the type of games i would like to see win. down by 1 run and 7-9 innings we come out scrambling couple runs. or a Papi blast would be nice too
and so far he and Napoli are the only ones that have had clutch hits to win a game in the 8th or 9th.. well my bad even Victo had 1.
i hate extra inning games since we dont have Aceves who can chew up innings. One of the reasons why i liked Doubront was in these scenarios he was spectacular. 3-4 innings. he is out of gas everytime after the 5th inning.
