They are takin on the chin tonight because of Sherzer and two pitches that were too good to Harper. With 2 strikes why was he going down in zone to a lefty with power? That's a natural power stroke to a decent lefty. They have played well and beat some very good teams in 6 of the last 7 games. They won big and they won close, scary, but still won.Looks like the division is bad enough it is going to ruin our chance to do some minor house cleaning and build for the future. Instead he will go with some patchwork strategy and pick up a couple of washed up relievers (remember Cishek, Broxton, etc) and keep bringing up these 26 year old "rookies" whom are not considered big time prospects.
I say consider trading Lynn and Carp to the AL and get some prospects. Carp is a DH.
Lets start building a great defensive club immediately.
