I had a bad feeling about Riggs leaving. ... this team has not been that good since he left. They look like the Nats of old. You just don't mess with something when it's working like the Nats were at the time that Riggs left.

The Cubs new pitcher was a really good WR for Notre Dame at one point.

Yep he was an absolute beast at ND.

Stairs has made a career out of that...

He's made $18,795,000 off of that.

I hate high outfield walls.

An outfield fense should be no more than nine or ten feet high.

Big Fenway fan?

Former Notre Dame WR right here.

Nix hoofing it, sore achilles and all. There's your real team leadership right there.

And guess what? He is 40 and hasn't hit a HR in almost 70 plate appearances.

After Werth are 6 automatic outs until it gets back to Espinosa.

His nickname is shark also.

Well that will get the job done. Much better than a strikeout.

RBI grounder works.

Aren't you including Werth as one of the automatic outs?

Whatever, Werth. We'll take it at this point.

You can probably guess my opinion.

But Bucky Dent hit a HR over the Green Monster so I'm ok with it at times.

welch · « **Reply #442:** July 04, 2011, 02:53:55 PM »

A run.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #443:** July 04, 2011, 02:54:02 PM »

lol we are paying Werth $126 million to ground out to first

Kentucky_National · « **Reply #444:** July 04, 2011, 02:54:09 PM »

Matt Stairs walkup is a Toby Keith song that says "I ain't as good as I once was". Great choice Matt. Great choice.

He got the run in. I'll take it.

Werth . . .

That ground ball is nice but is pretty much exactly why this offense sucks. We rarely are able to have big innings and string hits together. It's always home runs or outs.
