Yeah, I guess a better way of putting it is that it's unfair to throw Mitchell under the bus right now. If you weren't a fan of the pick at the time and wanted Trout it's fine with me to toot your own horn, but not by complaining about Mitchell's lack of production.

Is there anyone in your system who refuses to take walks? He's the likely choice.

Nix had an .802 OPS against lefties last season, as a strictly platoon player at 2B he's a solid player. That being said I have no problem with the White Sox optioning him because he is pretty terrible as a utility guy.

We were on top before the game against Strsburg.
Pretty sure nothing has changed since.
Yep, still least in the league with 352. Royals have the second fewest with 386.

Nearly a 1.000 OPS in June and it wouldn't take much to acquire him. I still don't really believe we've turned the corner, but going after a guy like him would be fine with me.

He was getting squeezed on the corners.
Not really, Rodriguez was setting up outside, those pitches were pretty much on the chalk of the left hand batters box.

Sounds like the closing song on Surfer Blood's Astro Coast, but I'm not sure.

Not a very lively park tonight, which really benefits Lilly.
Neither of those balls were hit very well, so I wouldn't take much from just the first two batters.

Hood Internet opening for Tobacco at the Empty Bottle was quite possibly the worst live set I've ever had to endure.

Has he thrown a change yet? I haven't noticed.
He's had a couple pitches down and away at 90-91, but I'm not sure if that's his two-seamer or a change.
