why do "American League teams live to hit your mistakes" (to quote Rob). Why more so than NL teams?

riggleman blows.  how can he put this lineup out there with a DH?? 

1) morgan needs to go - i mean outright released.  he's worthless and bernidena can easy outproduce him in center.  that would allow morse to play right.
2) harris blows too - he thinks he can hit home runs so he tries to pull everything.  bench player at best.
3) kennedy was decent about 3-4 years ago.  there's no time machine so keep him on the bench for an emergency.

Were you watching at the end of last season when Nyjer was the only thing worth watching?

Nyjer doesn't have to go, he needs to see a shrink.

But I can't argue about Kennedy and Harris. For whatever reason, Harris has dropped way off. Kennedy is trading on his past.

Maybe Atliano has "business" interests in Syracuse?

When Stammen was sent down, Riggleman should have reiterated to Atilano that he's still pitching for his major league life, with every outing.

You used to be a big fan of Kearns right?

Kearns is my homeboy.

I think that may have been a platitude in the past before interleague or before players changed leagues year after year. Carpenter probably figured saying it would sound good.

It was Rob, but it's not like he isn't full of plat, too.

Throw a dart at the lineup card blindfolded and you'll most likely hit a guilty target.

Riggleman for the lineup.

Kennedy for the errors and no-hitting.

Harris for the no-hitting.

Atilano for nibbling.

Kearns for hitting 2 home runs.

The first base ump for missing an out in the first.

Nyjer doesn't have to go, he needs to see a shrink.

But I can't argue about Kennedy and Harris. For whatever reason, Harris has dropped way off. Kennedy is trading on his past.



the problem is nyjer only played for a short period of time and then he got hurt, so it seems like he was amazing when in reality he may of just had a hot streak and then went down.  come on - the guy is a horrible base stealer and has given up 1-2 inside the park home runs in less than 60 games.  his on base average sucks - i see no upside to him and i think bernidina is better is better in center anyway.  also get that hom(o) "t-plush" garbage out of here.  he's a minor leaguer
