Rowand44 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 05:58 PM) but don't you guys get that we're only overly negative this year because of Dunn and Rios. IF - and it's a decently sized if - they're hitting well come midseason, then what flaws do we HAVE? The two idiots at 2b and 3b. I'm with you, I actually like this roster, never thought it was that bad to begin with but I know Balta is worried about the stretching out of Sale, and Humber to a lesser extent.

And yes a lot of teams have weak hitters batting 8th and 9th but there's nothing like Morel and Beckham at 8-9. there really is, I promise. go ahead and check out 2/3 of the National league rosters also re: Texas, I personally find our rotation better than theirs. Yes, it goes without saying Texas is the best team in the league. But I see no reason we can't make the playoffs if 5 teams are getting in.

We're about to be 19-3 against the M's in our last 22 games. Let's see how we do with the A's. That will be a good test...one thing's for sure, we didn't just go into the tank after Tuesday's blown game.

Rios clearly with the key hit in this game, especially after Dunn was thrown out at the plate, not so many minutes after Fukudome by Ichiro.

elrockinMT Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) The only thing that upset me with this series is that I couldn't be there in person.
