  2. Never seen raul blow up like that last night. If felt they had him mic'd up too cause I heard everyword he said back to the upire and it was not Bob Melvin Esc.

    The problem as I ahve brough up many times before is what are they going to do? They cant make a change at 3rd or 1st, they can do little to the rotation. They need a power bat. But at the same time picking up an ageing veteran is not teh solution. I think this form of bad baseball is going to last for a lot longer. Probably till Beltre and sexson are allowed to move on. And at that point its probably going to be "re-building" all over again.

  3. one thing I did like, unlike a few people who have written about it. Is the line-up shakeup. I think Beltre may get a few good looks int eh 2 hole jsut due to ichiro being on first and the threat tot steal taht he is. This may give beltre a few more fast balls to trun on. He hit the ball hard last night so maybe this will be a good thing. Watch though grover will abandon it after one game

  4. Yeah I think that's an interesting idea. More so than Beltre hitting 2nd, I really like Lopez hitting third.

  5. jose lopez providing protection for adrian beltre. i love it.

    i hope that trav is right about beltre getting fastballs with ichiro as a threat to steal. i dont see why he cant steal 100 bases. beltre was showing good speed too. let them run like vince coleman and willie mcgee and lopez and sexon will both see lots of fastballs, and lots of rbi. in 1985, tommy herr (also a 2b) had only 8 hrs, but 110 rbi hitting behind coleman and mcgee, who stole a combined 166 bases (110 for coleman and 56 for mcgee). he had one other year where he had 83 rbi, but other than that, never more than 60, and his career high before '85 was 49 rbi.
