Our players are the worst, other teams players are the best... Yada, yada, yada... lets start the game already.

 

You just came off a ban. Probably wise not to start this junk before the game even begins.

"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

Aw, man, Arcia starting?

 

He and Kratz will be automatic outs...

 

I'm thoroughly convinced Arcia just doesn't pay attention to the coaches. There's no way they could be ok with his approach. He has zero hope.

 

Zero hope? :laughing

 

23 year old who hit .277 for a full season last year. Yep, he should just retire since he struggled this year...

 

The pessimism is beyond laughable some times.

I don’t remember Grandal being bad defensively but this series has been pretty horrendous on his part.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

I wanted Schoop here, but 0 for 6 with 4 K's is not a very good way to start.

 

And he's looked baaaaaaad doing it. Swinging at everything, not even coming close to hitting most pitches.

 

I'm sure he'll snap out of it, but man, it's been a rough 6 AB's.

I think he's pressing, with his new team, as opposed to being loosey goosey lately with the no-pressure Orioles.

 

Probably. Hopefully he'll loosen up once he gets the first hit out of the way.

I agree, I also feel like putting him in the clean-up spot puts a slight bit of added pressure on him.

Not just “at Night” anymore.
