Morels AB was the definition of awful. Took a first pitch right down the pooper and went on to get himself out of soft s*** out of the zone.
Right now I dont know which one I dont want to see in the lineup. I wish we had capable replacements for both of these guys.

And something about him just tells me he's soft. And Gordon's finish on his swing is about the ugliest thing I've seen in baseball.
The thing about Morel's at bat is he swung at 2 pitches that were balls. It was just a horrible at bat. That last strike by Gordon was brutal.

Watch an NL game, and his swing looks on par with most pitchers.
I think some pitchers have a better swing right now.

Saw "Beckham suspended for 50 games" at mlb.com and part of me actually hoped it was Gordon and not Tim.
But then it would be REALLY hard to explain why he's fallen off a cliff offensively.
no kidding

Im glad Robin finally admitted that they cant keep Beckham and Morel in the lineup with the way they are hitting(if they keep it up). He is going to give them more time. But if they keep struggling he'll take them out.

Rios didn't even wait long enough to build any drama.
Just another quiet, boring out.
Hopefully Ventura as the season goes on will be more willing to use Konerko in a situation like that...
Doesnt Paulie have a strained back or something like that?
