Offensively, they suck. So, they aren't going anywhere, but they risk not even being a .500 team when they don't protect good efforts by starting pitchers. Take, for instance, great efforts by Kuroda(last Tuesday,) Lowe(last Wednesday,) and Billingsley(yesterday.) Broxton pissed away two of those, and Saito the other one. If these two were bad, then I could understand it. Anybody who watched Broxton pitch on Wednesday night saw how good he is when he takes the dress off, and just throws the ball by people. He gets way too much of the plate with any of his ***** pitches. So, the guy just needs to go in there and humm it, because that finesse crap is no good. I blame Martin, Torre, and especially Honeysuck for letting this guy throw anything but the heat (right now.) They seem to be letting this guy call his own pitches, and this guy is a fat Georgia ****** that has barely got a brain. How can you choose to throw that soft **** in the center of the plate? When you've got a 96-98 mph heater? He is a ******. Who would favor that soft crap that fools nobody?
