I'm getting tired of AJ. He has had 1 good year hitting and everyone says he handles the pitching staff sooooooo well. Bleh, there are plenty of catchers that can handle this staff, especially with Coop in the mix. I'd rather see a better offensive catcher, or a catcher that can throw people out.

We can agree to disagree on that part.

WTF Floyd. Everything is STILL right down the middle. It's batting practice on 75% of his pitches.

its hard to tell from the camera angle, but he is throwing flat fast balls. he isnt really changing pitches. confidence in his curve might not be there. but he is just throwing right over the heart of the plate.

you suggest moving floyd, with peavy out which leaves you with:

danks
ejax
MB
humber
harrel

sorry joe. that was a horrible idea.

I'm sure there is some legitimate points to your side. Catching is a tough position to fill, there are PLENTY of more 1B/OF's. Maybe I'm just sick of AJ, I'm not sure. While I know Castro isn't a legitimate replacement, pitchers (Garcia last year) seem to pitch fine with him in. There are plenty of pitchers that can pitch to any catcher. I will admit it could be my displeasure with AJ, though.

I will admit that when we got him, with his high draft status and potential, I was on the bandwagon because I thought Coop could do his magic again. But this guy is just too inconsistent for my liking.

4-4 still. god dammit.

i knew these ******* were going to be pests all year long.

royals could be a real dark horse this year. I dont think they are good enough to win the division, but I can see them hanging around this year. so much talent in that franchise

In the past 5 years, the Royals always seem to be pests to us.
