greg775 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 21, 2011 -> 02:01 AM) Dunn would be better off trying to hit right handed holding the bat upside down. Adam Dunn is so bad it is beyond belief. I think he's the worst player I've ever seen, truthfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Well, we better never acquire a "big-name" left-handed hitter again. First, Swisher...now Dunn. How is it even possible both guys could veer so far off their career norms when they came to such a hitter's park? It's the curse of Joe Borchard. (Yeah, yeah....Thome was good).

Flash Tizzle Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 If you cant hit that last meatball from Zambrano you don't deserve to play. That has to be the 10th hanger he has thrown down the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I think this is one of those seasons we'll just go back and forth between .500 and ten games under...can just never over the hump. Not as bad as 2007, but more frustrating...because we're in it "just enough" to keep from doing anything to change our roster or TRY any younger players on an extended basis.

southsideirish71 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Getting destroyed by these clowns over a 3 game series will do wonders for attendance for the rest of the month. Sure the National's series will draw well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, you described Baseball Hell. Looks like 2012 will be another one of those seasons where we're hoping players play up to the expectations because we're sure as hell not doing a lot of trading and FA signings.
