  1. LOL. Others say I loved the guy and was his biggest defender. Bloom made some big mistakes. Most of his biggest moves back-fired. Look at the deals for over $10M: Devers- TBD Story- injuries derailed hopes, little left to be determined Yoshida- One year meh, 2nd year and beyond TBD Jansen- great Barnes- oops Martin- great for 1 of 2 yrs (the wrong year) Kike I- good for one year (the right one) Richards Kluber Kike II He did very well with under $10M deals and rebuilding the farm and foundation, and frankly by not trading away DD's best prospects. The current foundation has a lot to do with Bloom (and DD,) mostly because Bloom focused more on the longterm than the here and now. Well, the longterm is now the here and now, mostly because Bloom set it up this way. I thank him for that, but he failed to produce winning or exciting teams, along the way. He had a big enough budget to do so, and he did not. I don't hate the guy, at all. He did some good things. I don't hate DD, Ben or Theo, either.
  2. Yup. Ever since I've returned from Spain/Portugal, my mind has been distracted.
  3. Starting the inning with a man on 2B does not make any RP'er's job easier. That being said, he failed to get the job done, and it's not the first time. He has sucked, recently, but he did have a 1.96 ERA and 2.77 FIP after 24 games (out of his 42 total.) When he is bad, he is bad. 30 games: 0 ERs (5 times for more than 1 IP) 7 games: 1 ER (twice in 2 IP) 3 games: 2 ER 2 games: 4 ER (All 3 times, he pitched in extra innings, he has let the man on 2B score, and last night, others too.) His total numbers are not great or even good, but they don't suck.
  4. Max, no two games decide what a team is or what they need. Houck and Crawford are at or heading towards shattering their career highs in IP for a regular season. If we make the playoffs, add 5-25 more innings. Adding 2 SP'ers sends Criswell to the pen to eat innings and help others in the pen. Going to a 6 man rotation eases the innings on the starters we already have. I'm not against adding a RP or two, as well, or 1 solid SP'er and 2 RP'ers.
  5. Not having Martin & Slaten is taking its toll.
  6. Blind squirrel climbing a broken clock... LOL. (just kiddin') He sure sucked, tonight.
  7. Okay, make the "throw-ins" Fitts, Sandlin, Lugo and Meidroth.
  8. Who do I hate?
  9. Yoshi. (Move Rafaela to OF and DHam to SS?)
  10. It seems like it's Abreu or bust, tonight.
  11. Can we now stop with the O'Neill bashing?
  12. Better score, this inning. It won't be easier than now. (Better get 2!)
  13. Woo is tied in 9th Kavadas homered (17th) and Dbld 1.012 OPS Grissom was walked twice. EValdez 2-4 Lugo 2-3 w BB POR lost 6-5. Teel 4-5 w HR & 2B (.868) 2-5 Mayer (.864) 1-5 Anthony (.799) 1-4 w BB Campbell (1.100) 2-5 Jordan (.758) GRE is down 5-4, but Monegro went 4 scoreless (1H, 3BB, 2K) Jg Garcia 1-3 w 3B Coffey 1-3 w 2B SAL won 7-6 3-4 Yuten w 2B & BB 3-4 Lugo w BB FCL lost 2-3 w BB Arias (1.055) 1-3 Reimer (.815) 1-3 Nunez (.761)
  14. Bello can't go past 5 IP. Before today: 6.43 7th inning 6.43 6th inning
