I be the first to admit that last year I was a little rough on Singleton. But that fat son of a bitch grows on me every day. 

I want a t shirt that says “God’s Plan”

He’s improving as an everyday player, and now I read that fuckhead Abreu is going to come back?

Even when Singleton doesn't walk or get a hit, he usually jacks up pitchers counts. I’d like to see him more aggressive. 

Abreu back? There goes Singleton’s timing.

Curious to how short a leash Abreu will be on

Crane and Bagwell are going to ride that 38 million right into the grave. 

And Goddamn, that 38 would go great towards the King Tuck fund. 

I already miss him. Some team is going to throw a big number at him, probably with a 2 in front of it.

He had been cruising, pitch count was low, and I'm sure they're freaked out about being a pitcher short the next 10 days.  I don't have a problem with letting him try to get out of it at the bottom of the order.  And it's 6-1.

Perkins should be his last batter though.

Yeah, but you have Abreu ready to go the minute he gets in trouble.

Uhhh. Espada should have pulled Arrighetti after the 1st guy got on base. 

Just now, David Dennison said:

Joe Espada, errbody.

Sigh.

Are you coming around to my opinion of our manager and what needs to be done?

So before the strikeout or before the 10-foot single?

Did the same fucking thing to Hunter Brown last week. These guys are hanging on by a thread. I wouldn’t have tried to get one more inning out of either of them, but if you are going to run them out there have someone fucking ready to go and pull them at the first base runner.

Before the strikeout. He should have been pulled at the latest after the BB to put two men on.

The walk was the only problem with the inning.  The rest was a bunch of babip fuckery.  The flyout to the track was the best hit ball of the inning by far.
