    Then BJ stares at a called third strike. The heck is wrong with the guys? Just swing the bat.

    I don't want to sound like Mr negative but I'd be shocked if Kendrick doesn't dominate us again tonight. I just don't get it, dude sucks.

    Freddie's like: You idiots need to swing at pitches down the middle.

    He can get over it. haha it helps the team to have a good hitter in the 2-hole. How about he just hits better? If not, don't complain.

    Everyone is missing the point on BJ. Of course he shouldn't be batting 2nd in a normal world with other good options, but he there to not concentrate all the suckage at the bottom of the lineup. It's a judgement call and quite frankly, looks like a lose/lose to me. If TLS was right handed he's be in there already.

    Kendrick has gotten a lot of borderline calls for strikes while Santana isn't getting anything. His Slider pitches even more.

    Which is stupid because he puts together a lot better ABs than LHP than BJ does. Never understood the deal with LHH hitters vs LHP but not RHH vs RHP.

    That's what happens when everyone is always bitching you strike out too much. You hit little dinky ground balls by "shortening your swing"

    Following the game on ESPN Gametrac. Appears Santana has made two bad pitches -- is that right?

    I'm not mad at BJ. I don't want to see him benched. But batting him 2 should be over.

    He didn't shorten anything. He didn't move his legs or anything. He just waved at it.
