    That swing is embarrassing when you aren't performing.

    Agree, especially when we did not improve the team this offseason.

    Only acquisitions Giles and Fister.

    Now, i want to see what Devinski can do as a starter, he stuff looks really good, nice fastball and that change up is really tough. He looks like a right handed Hamels.

    Yes he is one of the few bright spots to start the year. He deserves a shot in the rotation if the F-bombs keep being sub par.

    You said this "team" is "terrible"

    So why do you care?

    So, are you mad because they're not playing up to your expectations, or are you mad because you bought into the hype and wouldn't have had expectations without it?

    Also, you and cangrewhathisface are the only ones short shifted enough to forget that this team was 15 games above .500 prior to the Springer injury. That was their high water mark last year, and it occurred around mid season. It wasn't just "one good month".

    Who has taken up for Castro?

    Hell he might be the only guy we all agree on

    Springer swinging at way more pitches out of the zone this year. Disappointing.
