Nobody is dealing this early.

Johnson is much better at 2nd than Frenchy is in right.

Meet Billy Butler, the $8million zero-WAR player:

Dear God, Frenchy is terrible.

so, they also have james shields as 0 war (replacement level). yeah, bullship

But he is -as a hitter. You were looking at the offensive WAR, here is the pitching WAR where he's already up to +1.6:

This lineup is KILLING a great pitching staff. If we're truly "all-in", then GMDM doesn't wait until the trade deadline to upgrade this lineup. Move now, or at least in the next couple of weeks.

Howie Kendrick?
David DeJesus?
Andre Ethier?

I don't know...but we've gotta do something.

Yost needs to be gone by the 1st week of June if we are to have a chance if this slide continues if not sooner. All Star break will be too late. Don't think for a moment that Yost is not somewhat responsible for these young guys not reaching their potential in the batter's box either. Yost is about as motivating as Ferris Buehler's Civic Teacher. Buehler ? Buehler ? Buehler ? This last week exposed Yost big time and his lack of saavy managing of the game all the way around and needs to be gone IMO.

What do you mean? Most intelligent managers sac bunt in the first inning against the yankees.

I'm just sick of the black hole that is the bottom of our lineup. They kill rallys...and dreams.

We must be cursed. Our pitching is now decent, and we can't hit our way out of a wet paper bag.

Indians have a doubleheader with the Yanks today,if they can win 1 or even both I can see this place really start a meltdown. :)

ROFL

And just I submit my above post I get an e-mail from Royals ticketing for 50% off.

Maybe this Anaheim series will give us the reboot we need.

Losing 6-7 before a week of games that start after 9pm. Fairly smart marketing to keep people interested.
