I'd be far more concerned about Ventura if was making knee jerk moves at every turn. You have to believe his patience is wearing thin with Flowers and Dunn. But look at Viciedo -- before tonight you would have thought he deserves to be benched too.

Rick Hahn deserves a lot of criticism for not bringing in a better back-up that could give Ventura more options.
I'd seriously like to see Gimenez get some more ABs.

Good managers aren't afraid to make massive changes in the line-up if things aren't working. Obviously the personel isn't conducive to playing much better than this, but s*** Robin can't trot out the same line-up over and over and just hope for the best. You gotta try [i]something[/i]
third week of the season? i guess..
I realize this is only the first of many road trips, but this team just looks so out of sync, offensively, defensively, managerially. Wish they could hit the re-start.

If the Sox continue to struggle this year, Peavy is far and away the best trade chip the Sox have. Call up the Dodgers and see what they're willing to give up for him.
What kind of talent does SF have? I bet Bochy would love to have him back.

Not a good audition for the team that many think might be interested in him at deadline/free agency.
The Angels are interested.
