4 runs on 5 hits and 4 walks

Not really completely wetting the bed like some people make it out to be. As bad as he was struggling, I thought Dutch actually did a decent job of not allowing the actual damage to get to out of hand today.

If you can't watch Holland and see that he's going to be awesome, you probably shouldn’t be watching baseball. - Section 339

Obviously the real story

is still the lineup wide slump.

Another Ofer for Kinsler, which is getting disturbing.

I wore it Tuesday...

And sat behind the bullpen for a few innings. I did manage to get him to look back once, but some kid in front of me immediately started yelling at him and begging for a baseball. Plenty more chances, though. Plenty more chances.

You should get it autographed, make a master copy,

and screenprint a shitload of them and sell them :)

Can we get

box scores every game? I hate having to go somewhere else for them.

Unless I’m missing this here somewhere.

by tasan on Jun 14, 2009 9:54 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

MLB.com has the box scores up pretty much immediately after the game

I could start linking them if folks would like, I guess.

I'd also like to see

the game’s Win Expectancy Chart / Graph thing posted after each game. It just gives a better and more complete picture of how things went down, without requiring too much effort.

Brandon: Oblique strain. He’ll be out for at least another week. They brought him back too soon last time and he reinjured himself (he appeared in one game about two weeks ago).

..Sounds all too familiar

To clarify, that comment is about Smoak.
