    Griff will probably go 3 - 4 today with two homeruns and will be batting second for the rest of the year, regardless : or should it be

    Only a matter of time until it comes to a head. I am one who thinks that the three young guys are better than Jr and Casey. Maybe we can deal the young guys for some more chemistry

    Sitting Dunn this much early in the season will really go a long way in us not being able to resign him long term.

    Here's a novel concept. The Marlins are going with the SAME exact lineup as they put out yesterday when they actually won the game. And had 10+ hits. And the Reds, with 5 hits yesterday and a poor showing against the Pirates Thursday, are basically going with the same construction of a lineup. Way to go, Dave.

    Being in this kind of deficit before the first pitch is thrown is maddening.

    Why is struggling Joe Randa hitting 4th? Amazing Miley at it again

    Yeah, and it makes no sense to have Griffey and Casey, two lefthanded hitters who are slumping, bat second and third against a tough southpaw.

    It's amazing how much more often the first batter gets on base when Ryan Freel is that batter

    Freel and D'Lo's roles need to be reversed for a few weeks atleast.

    Of course Gonzalez's foot wasn't even anywhere close to the bag after he had to dig a ball out of the dirt....but that's your MLB double play right there.
