I hope we keep Adonis on the team next year either as a platoon with Rio Ruiz or as a bench bat. He's been new player offensively and defensively since his demotion earlier this year.

Awful ab by Swanson

[thewupk]

Might of been the worst AB we've seen of Swanson so far

He's been swinging it well for awhile now

Man. Swanson struck out on ball 4. Can't do that man. Wisler even worse.

[Garmel]

We squandered bases loaded with no outs. Not one damn run.

Fouled off ball 4 before striking out on ball 4. Be patient, Swanson

Hey WIsler

Watch out, cause Imma eatcha

[USMA76]

We've had a nasty habit of late of choking away potential big innings. It happened twice in the first two innings against San Fran last Friday night and it's happened twice in the first four innings tonight. As much as I like Ender, he's often overly aggressive and a centerpiece of our squandered opportunities. The saying is (when taking a risk on the bases) "if you're going to go, you better be safe." Ender's judgment has let us down a few too many times lately.

Joe and Chip don't know how a mutual option works. They have zero business ever saying anything about roster construction or financial aspects of the game.

Wisler's looked great since getting called up. Throwing strikes, getting groundballs, velocity seems higher, etc.

We really need him to establish himself this month.

Would be nice to go into the offseason with 3 guys you can count on for rotation spots.

[Ozzie Swanson]

Wisler doesn't need to be an ace for us or even a TOR pitcher. We just need him to pound the strike zone and be a solid middle to bottom of the rotation starter. I think he definitely has the ability to do that.

Is Beckham the best PH we have?

seems he is

[USMA76]

Feeling a lot better about this game than I was about five minutes ago.

[thewupk]

[nsacpi]
