Can you say SLUMP? I feel for our pitching staff yet again. They are doing a fine job for the most part but for some reason we have been unable to hit with runners on. I'd say time for a shake up but I know that's not going to happen. It was inevitable that Hill and Lind would cool off but our big contract players just aren't picking up the slack. I just cannot see Wells or Rios being dropped down the line-up (or sat for a game or two).

Glad to be at least back playing AL rules again though. Tallet has been fantastic if you take out that one bad game so he'll at least give us a great chance against Baltimore. Just need to string some hits together.

At least the other teams in the AL East didn't get too much of a jump on us this weekend.

A win against the Mets finally for us, Wakefield having another good game,
12-5 is a great score for us at the Fens.
Back a top the AL East, still got them Yanks one game back though.

I'd like to say we suffered a bit from having our pitchers bat. It certainly didn't help to lose both Doc and Richmond earlier than usually because we needed to pinch hit for them. But they way we've been with runners on lately, I don't think it would have done any harm to leave the pitchers at the plate! We couldn't even muster 1 run of support for Halliday. I'll bet the entire Blue Jays staff had to keep well out of his way after that game.

It does feel a bit too deja vu at the moment. Hopefully they buck up before this weekend or Friday and Saturday are going to seem awfully long at the ballpark.

I hate it when Penny pitches for us.

Papi out of the line-up and Lowell to DH, Youk to 3rd and Bailey in at 1st.

Working quite well right now, 5-1 up.

And the Yanks are whooping the Rangers, not turning out so well right about now.

Just looking at the website, we aren't in the all you can eat section are we?

I want to break my record from last year, of 8 cokes, 14 hotdogs and 4 natcho plates....
