    Yeah, he was in a horrible slump. Probably would still have been if he was in the #1 or #6 hole. I just like the ability to steal bases with the leadoff man. Its not so much Pence hitting second, I just like Kaz to be first. From what I read though he is more comfortable in the 2 hole though.

    Moving a run producer like Pence to lead off is border line stupid. Lee now loses protection in the 5 hole and Pence has little chance to drive in runs.

    The way we've been going lately, I don't think our offense really even starts trying until we get down a few runs.

    How good of a pickup has Erstad been?

    WOW. This is going to be another crazy comeback if it happens.

    The Rangers just LOVE to rip apart our pitching.

    Lesson learned: DONT turn off the game until the score says FINAL.
