    Would have PH Conger here, who hits LHP well.

    Have a sneaking suspicion the young talent Ashby was talking about was Julia.

    Where is Chris Burke when you need him?

    Interesting thing is, we used our long man yesterday in mop up work.

    Eh, doesn't matter as much in an AL game... and he'd be pinch-hitting for his own position.

    Games gotta end some time...

    So since we made fun of those people that were not happy with McHugh's 1st inning pitching performance yesterday, then everyone piled on after to make fun of those posters…

    Do I get to do the same thing with Carter? I kept getting hit with the "but he has a 1.000 OPS this month"…and I said it was just a matter of time that he'd go back into a month long slump. Well, since then, he's pretty much been 1-19 at the plate.

    He's just too inconsistent to bring much value to a team. His one month of awesomeness is great fun…but sitting through his slumps is an absolute nightmare.

    He's more of a mop-up man vs. a "long" man.

    Good thing McHugh pitched so well last night so that the pen is rested...

    Problem is if someone gets hurt.

    Well, that's a problem even with Conger on your bench.

    You then start putting in starting pitchers.

    Why was Carter running to the pitching mound on that bunt?

    He's playing like he's literally high.

    Whereas their pen is pretty beat up.

    Scioscia does believe in the sac bunt.

    At least (emphasis on these two words) an out was made instead of some Benny Hill stuff ensuing.
