At least we aren't the Chicago Cubs, gotta look at the positive side of things.

I meant Al Bundy doesn't hit worse than Hayes.

All these sucky hitters were confusing me.

Probably George Brett being a huge asshole to most everyone for the better part of two decades.

Tiny Tim would've had a better chance than moose for a positive AB. It's hard to throw strikes to him and he appears to be a superior athlete who might be able to put the bat on the ball.

We should all take bets on what Mooses final batting avg. for the season will be.

Its pretty cool that Chen and Guthrie are bilingual.

I think it's pretty cool that Salvy is bilingual. Of course he and Chen grew up speaking Spanish.

This team just isn't any fun to watch. The run late last season was totally fun, but they've sucked all the enjoyment away.
