CPM mentioned in one of this interviews/pressers this week that the reason we have lost games the past two weeks is defense and he's thinking about sacrificing offensive for defense in upcoming series.

I see his point, but I'm like you - I don't see how a 2 for 30 hitter can even be in the mix. That's a free 0 for 3 every game.

Fosters diving attempt wasn't all that horrible. It's not like he dove way behind the ball. He dove and it went under his glove, just slightly misjudged it.

What's the deal with schiambra??? Is he hurt, or no longer in the OF mix?

I didn't realize Laird, McMullen and Foster were a defensive liability with their combined 0 errors this year.

ETA: and I know outfielders don't get many error opportunities, and it is about getting to more ball yada yada yada, so no need to clarify for me.

Foster belongs in RF, dude has the best arm in the OF. Need proof? Go watch his throw to home that Katz cut off Sunday. That thing was a rope.

McMullen is on a 7 game hitting streak and has 8 doubles in SEC play so he is out DH

Laird is the CF because Stevenson can't hit. Laird is batting around .300

Yeah it's pretty pissing off huh. I think someone should unload their grandstand tix to me this weekend so they don't have to put up with this stuff.
