Wish Bryant would get out of his funk also.

I think we all do but it won't happen until he does something about it. It's pretty clear that the book on him is out now....breaking balls on the outside edge which either he can't lay off of or doesn't drive those pitches to right. Until he stops trying to pull that shit, it will continue. I think part of his problem is the brutal job being done in MLB by nearly all home plate umpires calling balls & strikes...they are just so easily fooled by pitch framing. Bryant is probably not sure anymore what a strike is. I can't wait for the computerized ball & strike calls MLB is looking at....I'm guessing neither can he.

Just about everything you typed is not true.

What I typed is what other posters continuously said on CBS boards. I don't know what wasn't true about my statement. BooBaby can back it up. Now, if you are saying thats my opinion on him and its untrue then you misread my post. That isn't my opinion of him. That was a huge board consensus on CBS.

KC in Kansas. ..lol. J/K

He post on CBS still. He is crazier then ever. He is losing his mind cause the Cubs won't fade away. Being 11 games over .500 is celebrating mediocrity. He also lurks on these boards. Dude is a certified nut job. There is trolling and then there is mentally ill. He is the latter.

Read something just now. Lester last 9 starts. He has a 2.08 ERA. He has a 1.66 since beginning of July. He has carried his weight for a good while now

I think the Phillies sweep was a major wake up call. This team will be entering Beast Mode if they can win 3 more

I really want KB to get out of his funk. He's looked so lost lately

They are just young. Peaks and valley's I would say the season saving hit was Bryant walk off homerun when they lost the lead. They lose that game then I think they never recover. That would have compacted with the Phillies series and been crushing.

This is random but doesn't McCutchen look like Peanut Tillman?
