I know it hasn't even been a month, but

Ichiro is on pace for 16 RBI’s.

Even WPA agrees...

…this game was lost entirely by the offense tonight.

This game sucked.

Greinke vs. Snell couldn't possibly be as bad as this.

Unless Yuni homered four times and somehow injured Felix and Guti in one fell swoop.

It's more likely Yuni gets them sent to jail

People Killed By Yuni: None, as far as I know
People in prisonl b/c Yuni: 1

Ok Z, we've had enough of this.

Just DFA Sweeney and Colome, bring up Langerhans and Hannahan, stick Bradley at DH, and limit Griffey to less than 100 more PAs over the course of the season.

I don't know what is stopping him.

He seems like the kind of person to do this without hesitation, but someone (coughWakamastucough) must be holding him back a little. I could be wrong, and likely am, though.

While I obviously agree with your message

How is this the appropriate thread? Sweeney had an RBI single. Griffey was only 1-4 but he didn’t strand any runners. The real problems were Lopez, Figgins, Kotchman, and Wilson, and none of them are going anywhere.

True.

On the other hand, we had the much more exciting kind of failure all weekend, fast and sudden.

So enjoy! Variety is the spice of life, after all.

Well I said I'd be realistically happy if we were .500 when we got Lee back.

If we can win the next 2 that’ll be true. This is the only thing keeping me from being really, really upset.

Clearly you guys don't have faith in the Belief System...

look on the bright side- all of our relievers are fresh, which is good, cause according to Wak, you’re only two days away from needing a 7 man bullpen. Second, Yuni is no longer on the team so he won’t go barreling out into left field and take out Milton’s knee. Third, Cliff Lee will soon join the team and get to enjoy losing 2-0 and 3-0 games. Fourth, the team’s lack of offense makes these games go so much quicker- I was able to have time to do the dishes and start a couple of loads of laundry with the extra 25 minutes or so given to me by a 2 hour and 45 minute game.

Wak just needs to tell the guys to get some KC BBQ, get shit faced, skip BP, and shuffle the line-up- replace Griffey with Tui, throw Byrnes in left and go with the all bunt offense against Grienke. Maybe when he tries to field the fourth or fifth one he’ll slip and blow an achilles.

Awwww

Another loss. Maybe next time.

by ThundaPC on Apr 26, 2010 10:15 PM PDT via mobile reply actions  

Maybe the time after next.

I was able to go to one game last year and it was the Greinke start at Safeco. This offense does not strike me as more potent than last years’.

Not sure if it matters

But the weather was awful. windy out to right center, cold, rainy, eight hundred people in attendance. Miserable.

by hcoguy on Apr 26, 2010 10:53 PM PDT via mobile reply actions  

So frustrating.

But not panicking yet.

After these losses, Jeff's good humour is the only thing keeping me going.

The Kyle Davies face thing was great, can still make me smile again even after such a sucktastic game.

Look at it this way:

the Red Sox and Dodgers, two teams that every expects to be really good this year are also two games under .500.

Yes, but we're currently playing the White Sox and the Royals

we need to beat the crappy teams because these should be easy wins.

Oh well, it’s not nearly time to panic yet. Four straight losses, but four very winnable games. If we go 9-153 with a -150 run differential, I would say we were a lot more unlucky than just bad

Come on Figgy

The walks are nice, but the dude’s on pace for 170 strikeouts when he’s usually somewhere around 100. I know his BABIP is low, and if you bring it up to his career level he’d be hitting ~.264. Even worse is that his line drive % is down and fly ball % which probably won’t be getting him to his career .340 BABIP. He’s not the biggest problem, and 20 game sample size, but dammit I want the annoying Chone Figgins who hits .300, not the one that hits .190
