We're a couple of relievers away from having an average team. Rauch is definitely better than most of our guys.
no he's not. he'd be the worst guy on our staff at this point in his career.

I bet Rauch would pitch better back with Nats
Lets send them the rights to Joey Eishen

Rauch has gone to the dogs. Very hittable.  Lost the closer and setup job.  He's a rarety; servicable for us, but stinks for Arizona... 

BASES LOADED!!  BE A HERO, DUNN... GET IT DUNN!!!!!



BAN THE WAVE, SELIG!! 
For that matter, BAN SELIG!!!!!

Yeah, he's just had a bad start. I'm sure he'll be fine.

I don't know.  He was really bad for Arizona at the end of last year.  It seems like he just isn't comfortable there for whatever reason.

freak freak freak. that is going to end up costing us because we all know our BP needs more than 2-run lead.

Dunn hurt us there. your #4 hitter has to be able to drive in a run off a struggling RHP in that situation.

Maybe. He hasn't been injured, though (right?), so it's hard to believe he just lost it.

yep. Rauch has lost it. he was so bad at the beginning of this year that Melvin started to use him strictly in mop up situations.

Are you kidding?  You're just going to let Dukes off the hook?  He swung at the first pitch.
