I've been in Arizona for the last week, and in the little I saw of Bohn, he looked surprisingly lost in the outfield for someone with a positive defensive reputation.  He had a good outfield assist from right to third on Wednesday, though the runner looked safe.

Though it is early in his move to third base, I can't imaging Tui sticking there.  Slow reactions and bad form - he missed 3 plays in one inning earlier in the week - all GENEROUSLY scored hits.

Sherrill needs to have some better outings the rest of the way.  Thornton is doing his best to pitch his way off the team, but Sherrill is matching Thornton's futility.  He got knocked around by the Cubs earlier this week, and again by the Padres today.  Unless he has been told he is a lock for the pen and is working on a new pitch, in which case getting hit hard and often doesn't imply anything more than he should not use the new pitch, he needs some success in the next two weeks to get in Hargrove's favor.

Justin Leone hit a grand slam in the top of the ninth today.  Nice to see him get a little revenge.

Matt Lawton has some pop in his juiceless bat yet.

Petagine hit one of the coolest home runs early this week - it looked like it went twice as high as it did far.

Jeremy Reed has absolutely amazing control over his bunts, and it looks like the M's want him to use that skill this year.  The only trouble is he doesn't seem to be much of a drag bunter, and squares around too early to get hits with any regularity.  If he can speed up the process a bit, I could see him getting 20 bunt hits this year.

Carl Everett sucks.
