But they're on the road. It's really tough on the road but these kids just keep battling no matter where they are. Didn't you see them come back today? That's battling and grittyness at its finest.
Ned just continues to amaze me with his stupidity. How do you not walk Lopez there to create a forceout at every base? I can't stand Yost. And I doubt anybody in the media will challenge him on that. They're idiots too.
I don't mind off days for players, what I hate is giving them the day off at the same time leaving a crappy lineup. Kaplan batting 3rd? Hell, I actually would have rather had Ned pick the lineup out of a hat.
A Brewers win and a 3TO callup? These last few hours have been awesome. This calls for a sexy party! Are the Rays where they are today because of Branyan? I think so. http://mlb.mlb.com/images/2006/08/08/2otUemFh.jpg
We might have to start subbing in Counsell for Hall in the later innings. At least now it won't be a complete let down on the offensive end like it was with the Counsell/Braun switches last year.
I wouldn't mind having Davis back but Eveland is the guy I want back. We just threw him to the curb like he was a scrub and didn't get a single good piece back for him. Now, none of those "pieces" we got are on the team anymore.
