I loathe the Rich Aurilia signing ©

[letsgojunior]

Just ridiculous

[KronoRed]

So it begins.

[CTA513]

Aurilia = GOD.

[Raisor]

Where's Jeff Gallolly when you need him?

[Matt700wlw]

At least he's not in for Freel or Lopez -- I'm trying to find good in this

[KronoRed]

What is Miley thinking?!?

[Mitri]

Who's gonna pitch to Dunn with those 3 behind him? I predict 3 BB tonight.

[Danny Serafini]

What is Miley thinking?!?

He's not.

[Tony Cloninger]

RA must have threatened to jump the team or beat up Freel...if he was not put in the lineup.


I mean......come on.....for once i would like the same lineup for at least 1 week straight. Can never happen with this team.......beacuse of injuries and flat out stupidity by Miley.

[smith288]

Aurulia is like jock itch...

Anyone have some anti-fungal cream?

[Matt700wlw]

Not that Kearns is tearing it up right now, but he's batting .232 as opposed to .200, and with Kearns, he could just turn it on at any moment....he has more upside and more defensive range.

With Pena gone, Kearns should be getting playing time - Aurilia's role should be depth and backup now the Lopez has earned the starting SS job

[Cedric]

This is a complete and utter joke. What the hell did Rich Aurilla do to deserve being on a MLB roster, much less starting.

At their respective numbers RIGHT NOW, Kearns is worth over 30 runs per 600 PA's then Aurilia this season.
