Branyan's calf is bulging or something

Or trembling with all of its massive muscley-ness.

We can't control what the Angels or Rangers do.

We need to match and exceed their wins, and beat them when we play them. I’m not that concerned about the Texas (they have to fade in August), and in my mind I know the Angels cannot keep this up, we just need to win the games we play. This M’s team has a lot of comeback in them. I see playoffs.

The thing is, we can't do much better than 7-3 in 10 games

Yet our last 10 games is what is arguably knocking us out of contention.

Nick Adenhart was actually a ritual sacrifice.

The Angels are evil and will stop at nothing to win.

So Russell plus pitchers equals 100.5%

Go team!

I never really liked the old tagline.

We really just need to move Branyan to third...

Call up Carp, bench Junior, make Shelton the DH, try out Saunders in left field…Results could either be epic or disastrous.

No need to rush Saunders

I think Langerhans is filling in nicely (2 walks and a hit today!).

Regardless of if Griffey is starting, we can’t justify having Shelton, Sweeney and Griffey all on the roster.

Langerhans is fine in LF right now

I trust the new FO to call up Saunders when they feel he’s ready developed enough to face major league pitching and not a second too soon. I’d be far more concerned about SS and who will be the starting SS for the rest of this year and more importantly, the years to come.

Branyan is fine second in the lineup

There really isn’t room on the playing roster for Carp
Shelton is not going to provide much more than Jr
Langerhans is fine in LF and Saunders is highly unlikely to offer any sort of substantial upgrade.

0-4.

To be fair, he was advocating moving Branyan to 3B

It’s still not a great idea , but a lot of us were hoping for it when Beltre had surgery (and prior to the acquisition of Hannahan).

Ah, read it as third in the lineup, not third the position.

That is a decent idea but with Hannahan aboard, probably not worth it.
