7-13 against the West
That’s it freaking pathetic. Not to mention JP is still definitely not as good as he should be vs LHH, which is odd
That is not okay
Consider a different insult please. Thanks.
How about that Jerramy Stevens drugging some girl and then sodomizing her
The best part is the school swept everything under the rug and hasn’t fielded a legitimate team since then. Karma sucks.

I'm not even mad. I'm just numb. I...fuck. I'm going to sleep.
Into the Wall : Sarcasm for the Soccer Guy
Yep, same here.
Seeing JP get lit up is like seeing aliens land in your backyard….it’s a mind-numbing experience.
5 straight curveballs to langerhans
thank god zaun is here
Why else would he go out there with 2 outs and Ichiro on deck?
“Throw strikes and pitch to contact.”
I dunno why he went inside
He looked like he stopped going away after not getting S3
before you give me the dumb 'release him' response
Howell has not pitched well at all his last 4x out
His ERA has gone from 1.81 to 2.14
2 HR
4 BB
walked the lead off man twice, wasn’r so lucky last night
took an outstanding play by Longoria in Game 1 v BOS
Release him

An outstanding play by Longoria?
Howell got a great hitter to completely mishit the ball. Hell, the hit before was an infield hit. He closed out the 2nd game against Boston after Drew battled him for a leadoff walk. You are so ridiculous.
The walks are discouraging
He is still missing bats and getting called strikes.
Can David Ortiz please send Dioner Navarro some of his PED's? K? Thanks
Bases loaded, one out, how'd that happen?
His last four games have not been good and i’ve suppported it with stats
We've only won 7 road series all year
But the only 3 against good teams(.500+) are Boston, NYY & Florida
Other series wins-NYM, TORx2, KC, and a split in there to BAL.
That’s bad considering they’ve lost series to MIN, CLE, CHW, OAK, TEX, SEA, NYY, BOS, BAL, COL
Oops, yeah I knew something looked wrong
I barely remembered that we played COL, but the point remains
Mostly the Bullpen
I don;t have the splits on the road, but I just keep remembering very bad bullpen pitching is a lot of those games

Yeah Balfour has been horrific on the road
Howell struggles on the road a lot too, the whole pen does for some reason
I think though the road woes come from
the starters not going as deep into games, meaning more IP for the ’pen, making the bullpen less effective.
You lies to us

it's the right move
hopefully for Michel’s sake he can get picked up by someone where he can play or at least be on a ML roster.
Now starting for the New York Mets...

Michel wasn't a horrible catcher
but no doubt its good to have Greg Zahn who I remember from the ’97 Marlins Championship.
alright since we are adding Zaun anyway can we just make a wave of moves
in- Zaun, Sonny, EJ, Davis
out-Michel, Shouse, Dillon, Bennett
I chuckled
Duemig is alive, NOT FOR LONG though....

We need Davis to be Hughes-esque
When he comes up, we just struggle when the starters don’t get into the 8th sometimes
I'd put him in the pen
I know it may cost a bit with service time or w/e I don’t know a lot of those details. I do think that in the position we are in (only 2 1/2 games out with a favorable schedule) that we should have the best possible 25 man roster out there. I think that Davis would be better in the pen than 1 of the loogys or Bennett.
Few things
Hickey pitches do trend significantly towards curves so this isn’t surprising. Then again Howell is probably Hickeys only main bright spot so i don’t wanna blame hickey.
Can David Ortiz please send Dioner Navarro some of his PED's? K? Thanks

you dumb for suggesting this
we can’t win every coinflip
I can't help that I make some things look easier than they really are.
What exactly did I suggest?
Have you not noticed the numerous other posters that mentioned Hickey? I didn’t blame Hickey. I just mentioned a fact. Hickey pitchers throw significantly more curveballs over time. That is a fact.
And it wasn’t a coinflip. Not even close to a coinflip. 1 strike away and 1 run up is pretty damn close to closing the deal.
Can David Ortiz please send Dioner Navarro some of his PED's? K? Thanks
After the 8th it was a coinflip who would win.
Two good defenses and bullpens with decent lineups in a pitchers park. It was either us or them and it could have gone either way. If you would like to see it graphically, look below:

Without reading any of this drivel i jst want to sy yoyu guys tart dum
Lets fuckin take the nxt two games aaginst nontfelix pitchers and call it a won series, haters suxck a cock
I can't help that I make some things look easier than they really are.
What JP had to say:
“I was just thinking ‘Get it out, get it outside,’ and it stayed and then he hit it,” Howell said. “I saw the whole thing and I heard the hit, and when I heard it, that’s when you know. If you can hear it like that, you know, as a pitcher.”
I hate you right now

As terrible and as stupid as this loss was
We have to focus on winning this series. If you look at this series before last night and had to guess which game we were going to lose, you had to guess it was going to come against Felix. We still just have to focus on winning this series and taking the next 2, which is more than plausible. Also, anyone have the PitchFx on J.P.’s first AB (I believe it was against Guttierez)? On that 3-2 pitch it looked like he struck him out.
Not a justification.
It’s not OK to swallow this loss because it was the game we expected the team to lose anyway. The Rays had this game won twice, and the bullpen crapped themselves. This is a shitty loss and another game that goes on the already long list of games this team had no business losing.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
