The Mighty Mite

They don’t care as long as they are making their millions, no pride at all.

There’s 2 months left, it’s a long way to rock bottom.

Smart bunt there by Robles, the Sox give him a hit and he takes it, I don’t understand why we don’t see this all over baseball but instead guys are swinging for the fences.

Please tell us.

I feel sorry for Baldwin, has to be saying to himself; I came up to the Majors with a team that is a complete clusterfuck.

Robert continues to strike out on pitches low and way, he’s has to be some kind of stupid. Same thing with Vaughn.

Just DFA him and ILOY ASAP. No way they are going help win games the last 2 months. ILOY cracked me up last night when he was HBP in the shoulder, watching him one would think he blew it out, what a clown.

That’s some goal. If that’s the case my only take is that JR thinks it will be easier to sell the team maybe next year with a low payroll, I’m praying that’s the end result.

Simply amazing that this team can’t put together a sustained rally, have they scored 5 runs in an inning so far this year. Right now I’m betting that they don’t get to 40 wins. It’s unbelievable that Grifol is still the manager, how does this guy still have a job, he must have compromising photos of JR and Getz.

I think Fedde was frustrated because of getting squeezed all night by the umpire. Do these umps at the end of the season have to answer for their lousy performances, this is the worst year I’ve seen for balls and strikes and also lot of calls being overturned by video replay.

You have to add Moncada to the mix.

I’m going with what Paulie said, forget the losses, the Sox will be one of the 18 teams that won’t make the playoffs, only way I keep my sanity.

He’s a strikeout machine.

Does it really matter what the lineup is, they all stink.

I wouldn’t bet on it.

This season is beyond a nightmare, eventually they might make a movie about it, will be scarier than The Exorcist.

Well good, they can have him and they can have Moncada and ILOY too.

Who would trade for Robert, he’s a quitter. I remember Ernie Banks in the 1950s playing with pretty bad Cubs teams but he went out there and did his job every day hitting homers and driving in runs and won 2 MVP awards in 1958 and 1959. Banks had more class in his baby finger than Robert will ever have.

Sign premier free agents but we know that the wretched owner won’t do that, only hope is new ownership and damn soon.

Anyone with half a brain can see that he has plain out quit, Grifol who has a quarter brain can see it and probably benched him, 2 Ks and 2 at bats and not even going through the motions. Just about everyone on this team needs to look into the mirror and start acting like professionals, they’ve living a dream and making great money, someone needs to chew their asses out and read these stiffs the riot act.

Randy Arozarena in a cool thing is walking in the walkway behind Randyland and shaking hands with his fans and thanking them for their support, how great is that, still can’t believe the Rays traded him.

3 scenes, the first is from The Natural when Roy Hobbs is bleeding from his mid-section while at bat and hits the game winning walk off homer and the Knights win the pennant. The second is manager Dutch Schnell’s clubhouse speech to his NY Mammoths played by the great character actor Vincent Gardenia in Bang The Drum Slowly. Also from that movie is when Piney Woods sings the title song in the clubhouse during a rain delay, every time I watch that scene, tears come to my eyes.

Exactly.

Easier said than done but I do like the potential of the starting staff but they have to keep Crochet and Fedde and sign them to extensions. The starting lineup is anyone’s guess, Quero, Lee, Montgomery, Ramos and Baldwin are going have to fill their potential. I have no idea what to do with Robert, everybody else needs to go, Vaughn has turned out to be a major disappointment.

As a pretty ardent follower of the Rays this shocked the hell out me. Arozorena was very popular with Rays fans. He got off to a bad start this year but he’s been on fire since June 1st. They’re going to have to rename Randyland out in the left field seats at the Trop.
