Sure, but is the weather also affecting his ability to field routine ground balls? 

don't know how he did last year.  but i think youse guys are being a little rough on him.  he's a proven commodity.  having said that, i don't like his 3 year contract anymore than the rest of you

I am less concerned with the bat when he's not a bonehead in the field.  He's valuable when not overused, but TLR thinks he's an everyday guy and theres nothing we can do with that.

Leury always has some brain farts here or there on defense, but I don't remember him screwing up this many routine plays in a week. I count 3 now this week. I can excuse him not hitting cause I don't have real high expectations of him at the plate, but a lot of his value is his ability to play ok defense at a bunch of positions. So far, his defense has been abysmal. It just adds to the frustration with him also being hitless at the plate.

can't disagree with that.  but i think he's better than we've seen so far.

Pitch to Kelenic was bad. I will say the ump missed the strike two to Kelenic the pitch before in the zone. May have been a different location and outcome if it was 0-2 compared to a 1-1 count. Oh well…

Yup 0-2 probably means he ain't getting a fastball he can turn on.
