    Last year the 100 loss orioles came to town and torched us in a 3 game ass kicking. Detroit did the same. Thats baseball baby. This team just has our number.

    If we get Brantley back, then we only need 2 more bats. I don't really think we can count on these young players in the playoffs. I think they will just be easy outs most of the time.

    I guess Jake is just going through his sophmore slump. The one homerun is a bit disappointing. Maybe opposing pitchers have figured out Jake at the plate and he needs to make an adjustment?

    I think people are vastly underrating the surgery he went through. I didn't expect much from him this season. If the Astros are good with a player striking out 30% of the time might as well call up Leon.

    In all fairness to Lee, Bregs would have probably choked getting that run home from third as well.

    The older fan practically kills the kid getting to the foul ball in the stands. Then, hands the ball to the kid. Umm....thanks?

    This.

    This was a major surgery and he isn't an established player yet.

    He missed a lot of time as well.

    It's a fair point but, looking at his game log since coming back, he did really well when he came back and then hit a rough patch starting July 12th.
