Teal Shadow Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Pitching and defense gets you so far...It's amazing were still in first place with the offense and bullpen we have. We made Wasdin look like a future hall of famer.  Niner is DONE! There nobody on the bench better, which says alot. I understand he's hurt. Which in turn is hurting the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There nobody on the bench better, which says alot. I understand he's hurt. Which in turn is hurting the team i very much agree. PATHETIC effort today on the offensive end. the bullpen made it difficult for us to come back this is true, but if our offense would have done ANYTHING before that we would have had a decent enough lead even after that 3-run homer.  this game is all one this really bad Offense we have.

FishFanPR Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 you know what's pathetic? this crap! We don't need another bat, we don't! All teams go through ups and downs offensively. The only piece we need is bullpen help, and we're set for October. We have more than enough offense sitting in the bench, if someone's struggling, call someone.

Iowa Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 We have a veteran LF who is on the downslope of his career, a very young first baseman who is still adjusting to the game, a below average catcher and an inconsistent offensive SS. I would tend to agree we may need to add someone to our offense but I think adding to the BP is more important.

fishywishy Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 It seems like everyone is just underperforming lately. This is when the hitting coach has got to step in and do something!!! Our offense is better than this. Everyone is so inconsistent, having 2 or 3 hits in one game than going 0for the next few. Â This shoulder injury appears to have all but destroyed Conine as a batter. Either way, we cannot keep him in our regular line-up at this rate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree and disagree Our bullpen almost always come in with a one run lead or behind by one. Every pitch counts because our offense doesn't score. How much more pitching will it take to put more runs on the board? How many laugher have we been in? It seem were always in a dogfight. That means were not scoring enough to demoralize the other team chances to come back.  GET ANOTHER BIG BAT Admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was movin like a 3-toed-sloth out there. I know he just came of the DL, but damn, was he slow. Well he did go 1 for 3 with 2 RBI and a walk. The guy is a solid hitter with RISP, something that this team NEEDS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefbob Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Trade for Carl Everett.? Bring back the former Marlin :thumbup uh, no. Why not? Because he is a cancer? yeah, pretty much.

farmer_fran Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Jeromy Burnitz. A guy that won't ravage your farm system to trade for him, but could split-time with Choi and Conine and would be able to provide much needed power to this offense.

CapeFish Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 We need to stop talking about getting another bat guys. July is when you talk about that. We got another arm, and he looks good so far. We need to start being smarter at the plate. JP is killing us at the top right now, Cabs and his DPs are also killing us. Could we see Luis, Sea Bass, and Choi bat 1-2-3 tomorrow?

CyggyMarlin Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 I've said it before...As much as I like COnine, I think he is bench material now...We need a good hitter in LF and we need one more bullpen guy (depending on how the Koch Era goes)... And just out of curiosity, who is Captain Clubhouse on this team? Who is the leader? Is Mikey taking that job responsibility? I honestly don't know who is taking charge...Is someone picking this team up when it is down? Dontrelle is a cheerleader but as a pitcher he really shouldn't be in charge of offensive morale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlapHands69 Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Burnitz sounds good but so does anyone at this point. Burnitz comes cheap and is playing quite well at the moment. All I know is that we need at least one more arm in the pen and another bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Captain Clubhouse once more seems to be Conine and Lowell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 My only problem with Burnitz is salary. How much and how long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
