Timmy U

would be nice if Robert got a chance to bat with someone on.

Watching Charlotte. Sosa at second covered first on a ball both the pitcher and 1b went for, so it is possible.

Baylor heating up. 8th inning homers in 3 consecutive games. Just in time to kill us as usual.

Robert may hit more HR than Sox get Ws

HR Sosa

Well, that didn't take long. Pray for rain?

I had a horrible thought today—They should have hired Ozzie. In his first stint, he identified guys like Carlos Lee who were not winning players. They need someone to do that now. Keep people who have a competitive spirit, dump the rest.

I have been watching some Charlotte. They sent Colas down to make better swing decisions. He is still not doing that. He's just strong enough against bad pitchers to paper over a lot of those bad decisions. I'd give him some time to get motivated to improve. This team does not need yet another player swinging at everything regardless of the situation. Hopefully, he can improve his approach and get a lot of at bats in the second half.

Not 14 under in mid-May?

Normally, this one would have felt pretty good.

People act like they forgot about *Michael Brantley*

Woo! 3-3 against the Astros, 11-24 against everyone else.

I'm beginning to suspect that Corey Julks may not be very good.

Not Preller, right? Except for one series, Dodgers own the Pads.

I forgot that Marisnick is inexplicably in the majors. With Romy, they are awash in defensive replacements for Sheets.

Finally, this team has an identity.

Hold them and go home (without falling below .333 winning percentage)

Helluva job by Kelly. Too bad he didn't have more luck.

Love the planning that gets you Sheets in RF and Haseley as DH.

Vaughn killed them in this one.

So Bummer in to lose game in the 8th?

ReyLo, he of the 0-3 8 ERA.

This team needs a nickname like Southside Hitmen. I suggest The Never-Walking Dead.

Good outing for Cease. Infield hit in the 1st really extended him, but he came back to pitch very well. I am sure the Orioles are impressed.

There’s our run. Let’s try to have it hold up.
