Royals Tigers Game #2- Deja Vu?
 

4-0 Royals top of the 2nd Teahen as a 3 run jack.

This thread title makes you a jinx. JINX!

Teahan is on fire.

Sure is at the plate anyway.

He is in the field too. Well last night he had the error. Before last night though, he had only committed 1 error in his previous 28 games. That is outstanding for a third baseman.

What the hell lit the spark under Teahen's ass? That kid is playing the best baseball at the plate ive seen in a while from a Royals player. He's smahing the shit outta the ball, i hope to god its not just a little fluke right now.

yeah but he has made some bad throws turning doubl eplays..one cost us a game against the twins

I think his defense will come around just fine, thats the thing they looked at when getting teahen, his exceptional defense. He's made some prety damned good plays, but made some stupid ass plays like last night, Im not worried about it, I know he'll come around on defense.

Yeah, but it seems like everybody remembers the handful of bad plays. Nobody seems to remember all the great plays he makes. I don't know why. Really he's still young and hasn't committed an absurd number of errors compared to other young third basemen. His big problem seems to be the occassional throw, you'd think that's something he can fix, not just random mental lapses like Berroa. If he can't, I guess we can just slide him across to first. Although Gordon will probably have to go through the same kinda learning period. Even guys like Rolen and Randa committed a lot of errors early in their career.

I am not saying he sucks. Just saying his offense is a lot better than his defense right now. I like his arm. He just makes too many dumb errors..the first error last night I say shit happens...2nd error was a dumb ass throw

The reason people seem to remember his E's is because his bat was so bad.
If he'd been hitting BB's all over the place like he has for the last 3 weeks, nobody would remember the occasional errant throw.

turn your glove around brown!

Teahen's a solid fielder, he's just young.

I don't know what happened when they sent him down, but they woke up the bat that make him a prized prospect a few years back. He keeps playing like this, and progresses even a little, he's going to make that trade look pretty good. I'm already starting to forget about Randa.

This logjam at 3rd base is going to get interesting next year, though...

so Berroa will be the homerun hitter tonight to commit the error that will cost us the game

berroa is such a tool
