Or anyone, for that matter.

 

The problem is he was brought in to help us from the left side, but any righty with good stuff just overpowers him it seems. When he struggled against Garland, it was a horrible sign IMO.

When Dunn went down with his appendectomy, I bet someone that he would still hit 38 - 40 homers.

 

That was a dumb ass bet.

 

 

Luckily I didn't have anyone to bet with, but I thought it too

Absolutely. If there is anyone he should hit, it's Garland.

 

That being said, I don't think it's an issue of him losing bat speed because of age or anything. I think he's just fighting some mechanical adjustments and is most certainly pressing mentally. He'll figure it all out...the question is will it be in time?

I think he'll figure it out, but his start this year in addition to how poorly he ended last year is definitely a big red flag.

More ground outs to the pitcher and into DP's than anyone I can think of this year. Juan Pierre

 

Why oh why does this man get the most AB's on the team?

 

Yeah, I know, Ozzie.

Why does Danks always give up a run in the first 2 innings of a game? What the f*** is the deal? Can he keep an offense at bay for at least 5 or 6 innings

 

It seems he ALWAYS puts the offense behind early in the game

I wonder sometimes just how warmed up they are when entering the game. Are they ready or not is my question
