flavum Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:58 PM) Hopefully Ventura tries to change the lineup around. I'm fine with ADA leading off, but I think Alexei should bat 2nd. I agree. Not sure what they're trying to prove batting Beckham 2nd, other than he sucks.

caulfield12 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) At least Dunn seems to be avoiding the curse of everything falling apart. It would be ironic if he becomes a more valuable bat than Sandoval or Headley going into next season. Viciedo 0 for 16 career against Masterson. Heading for 0/17. This is where not having Eaton and a 3/34 Jordan Danks is killing this offense. Ramirez hitting .170 against Masterson lifetime.

caulfield12 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:01 PM) What the hell was that by Viciedo? 0/17 career, is what it was. (With everyone healthy, he would be on the bench, clearly...and not in the Top 5 AL hitting ranks, although he's about to slide out of that the way he's been going this week.) Ventura's going to have to get this team together tomorrow morning for a mandatory practice. Dunn didn't even slide there. Just a TERRIBLE game from every perspective but Carroll's gutsiness and Dunn's offensive approach. Of course, another great defensive play by Swisher. Purgatory is here. At least we have our 3 wins this season against CLE already. Indians a completely different team at home.

izroca Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 3, 2014 -> 06:47 PM) Apparently Carroll put out a video on youtube....homemade, thanking everyone and saying that he will endorse ANYTHING, whatever you need, he's your man. Some needed levity this week. Does anyone have a link to that? Great sense of humor from the kid. Refreshing story and a breath of fresh air.

You reslly think this is no different than Little League. Or else why would you want to punish the team and leave a hot Adam Dunn on the bench for a game as punishment for a mistake he rarely makes and is fully aware should not happen.
