    If Wilson could play CF, played for a cheaper contract and was more willing to take a part-time role (all are true with Lane), he'd still be here.

    By the way, Wilson hit .200 with a .539 OPS in the playoffs with St. Louis. Those numbers make even Jason Lane look quality in comparison.

    Sadly, they don't. :( Lane has a 0.168 BA and 0.581 OPS this season.

    I know, that was my point... even with Lane's incredibly poor season thus far, his OPS still beats Wilson's playoff OPS a season ago. :D

    (Yeah, I know judging anyone by playoff performance is pointless, but someone else brought it up.)

    Well that started out great. I have a bad feeling Zambrano is going to own us again.

    He gave them pitches to hit. 'Stros just need to capitalize off the mistakes.

    Jason Lane should be sent down to A ball.

    What the hell is Garner's love affair with him? Jesus...... :rolleyes:

    Things are a little different when Berkman hits like he should, Oswalt throws like he should, and Lidge is dominant at the end of the bullpen.

    Add Lee and Pence, and that's a pretty good nucleus.

    Why the heck did Garner yank The Wiz with a 4 run lead in the 6th when Oswalt has been going strong? :mad:

    Edit: Just noticed he was at 108 pitches, but that doesn't change my feelings on Garner.

    Borkowski shouldn't still be on this the roster... might as well let Gutierez in to a low pressure situation, and let him showcase his stuff.

    No matter how bad this season has been. Nothing feels better than sweeping the cubs and seeing Zambrano break a bat over his knee. ROFL.
