    But...but..Purpura also told the sheep our offense would be much improved with a healthy Ensberg and Carlos Lee. It was supposed to offset our weak rotation.

    All I see is same 'ol, same 'ol. Have a fun 3 months with the Yankees, Roger.

    Slow second baseman can't run,can't hit a lick. I personally dont care about 3000 hits, it should be more about winning. Put burke on second, pence on center.

    No way. That would make Uncle Drayton pout. We just can't have none of that.

    Every time there is runner on scoring position and Biggio is up we get nothing but a pop up!

    Jesus, Mary and Joseph people.

    There are still 1441 innings left in the season. Put the nooses away.

    Actually, don't. It might make this forum a little more readable after a loss. :)

    And clearly, two games is ample sample size to determine the strength of the offense.

    We're batting .281 as a team thus far. We just can't push any runs across.
