You know it’s bad when Javy has the third best BA in the lineup.

Juuuust a bit wild today

[RandyMarsh]

We're almost a month into the season and our lineup currently has only 1 guy with a slugging over .375, that would be upsetting enough if that was obp but slugging,  jeez that is downright deadball territory.

I really have no idea why AJ sent him back out there...

[Dtrain72]

Hit the 2 run per game avg so far, luckily we won earlier with 3 un-earned runs...stronk offense gais.

Basically my biggest fears coming into the season are happening except at a much more extreme rate than I even thought. 

I worried that if Hasse, Schoop and Grossman(in his case just power) came down to Earth in home runs from last year we weren't going to have enough power in the lineup to score at an even average clip.

Of course with those fears I thought we'd atleast have a handful of guys that would be getting on base at a decent clip so even without home runs we could hit enough singles and doubles to be half way decent offensively but even that hasnt happened yet.

Getting 1 inning out of him today was lucky enough with how wild he was, trying for more was courting disaster 

[mtutiger]

Why the hell didn't they pinch run for Cabrera??? Jesus

[RatkoVarda]

schoop is just awful

[Dtrain72]

Oh nooo schoop sucks agaaaaain....

he wasn't the tying run probably.

Schoop is so useless right now.

[Dtrain72]

Sooooo, is there anyone to bring up to give a shot at 2nd?  Lots of offensive problems, but this team really needs to try to find some answers if some of these guys dont stop shitting their pants.

Yeah, he's bad...

[bobrob2004]

Should have pinch ran for Miggy.

Should have pinch hit for Schoop.

Should not have pitched Hutchison in the 7th.

Hindsight is 20/20.  Hinch is a great manager.

Hinch is like a 5 star chef who's given nothing but unripe tomatos and moldy cheese to work with.

[RandyMarsh]

As a team we have now fallen below Barry Bonds 73HR pace.

[gehringer_2]

well you knew this team couldn't go two whole games without reverting to form. Has Jimenez come into the game even once so far without walking the first batter he faced?

It sucks that we are still rebuilding.
