The guy has power, there's no question about it, ... The peaks and valleys, that's going to be the decision on Carlos Pena. Are we getting to a point where we're getting more consistent? I would say that I'm seeing some signs, sure. That's why I want to see this all the way to the end. I wouldn't want to see a total dropoff myself.
This year, if I'm voting, I'm voting for Colon.
Two hundred would be a nice number for him.
What was there to like about this game? It was 10-4 and probably could have been worse,
What a trade they made getting Nathan and Liriano and another guy that led the International League in strikeouts,
We've been talking about this for way too long,
We're struggling, no doubt about it. There's nothing we can sprinkle on these guys, though. There's no magic. Just keep working.
We come right out of the chute and don't play well. It was very sloppy.
If we'd have swept them, I don't think we'd be going into Boston, or Chicago, or Cleveland any different.
We decided to put together a couple left-handers against Liriano.
I think he's solid. He's gotten himself to the point that he can play. He's not flashy, but that's OK. He makes the plays. And with the way he works, he's going to get better.
I thought that we made that play at first on Erstad's at-bat, but the umpire said we missed the bag.
That's the only way to do it because there's no magic dust for times like this.
Our bullpen just didn't do the job. Yesterday, they were great.
