    You can't see! I can't see! All that matters is can the f*&%ing horse see! That's a raid!

  • Really is sad and i hate the young excuse. Maybe youth hurts when turning the double play, maybe youth affects the ability to hit a curveball. But somebody would have to do a hell of alot to convince me that youth is responsible for the baserunning blunders we had tonight.

  • Ran ourselves out of at least 2 and lost by 1. Grrr. Got to tighten this kind of stuff up, and yes Joey does need to be in 4 hole. I personally would like to see KMart get more shots at the plate, but he looked bad this weekend. banghead

    That is the problem buddy. We just can't get someone to be consistent in the 4 hole. Or other spots as well.

    I don't think Pankake is a 4 hitter but he may be the best option we have right now.

    But it is just what it is. We may get better in some spots but this is just the team we are. We have to depend on our pitching to carry us right now and probably through the year.

    We have good pitching. They can get the job done.

    We have to move on to the weekend.

    Too many walks is my only gripe with the pitching...esp mid-week and middle relief.

    But the mental mistakes is what's killing us...that's two games out of four where base running has cost us a win. Sad.

    Walks killed us tonight. No doubt.

    Sometimes base running mistakes happen. I don't have a problem if you are trying to make something happen. Tonight is sounded like we had a no hustle play. NO EXCUSE for that. The other one you have to make a decision and go with it. You can't change your mind in the middle of the play. You will be out most of the time.

  • It is going to be a very long bus ride home tonight and it should be. I would not want to be on that bus.

    there is no subtitute for experience.....2 freshman just made terrible mistakes. Book your reservations to Omaha in 2014 however. Bank that.

    30+ games in and you are no longer a freshman.

    smedlyp

  • Yeah, the whole "youth" thing, I don't buy one bit. Sure they are freshman, but most of these freshman eat sleep breath, baseball since they were in Kindergarden, this is absolutely rediculous.

    B/w this and your rant about Saluda's you have joined Steve Miller, Ace and Jelsik on the ignore list. Hall of Famer.

    WoCo

  • There is no question that youth has a lot to do with our problems. Ray Tanner says it also, but I guess he is wrong. Do they know better? Of course, but experience takes the thinking out of the game, they are not at that point in their careers yet. This is a midweek game, and not the first one we have lost that we should not have.

    All we can do is learn from it, we have no choice. Getting down on the team is pointless. All of us, including the team, are not happy about it. They will keep learning as they go.
