Harper just cost his team the use of his services for XX games. Getting yourself injured doesn't advance the team cause.

Do you really believe this stuff? Wow.

And you do?

Kind of like finding a pearl in a bucket full of smashed oysters.

+1

"2" - that's 6.7%. Impressive, huh? And just to put it in perspective - Mike Sciocia's lifetime caught stealing % = 34%. Jeff Mathis lifetime = 26%.

Fat Iannetta. He's Mathis without the pounce, but he scares pitchers enough to walk him, frequently. For that fact he makes a lot more than Mathis.

We will definitely look better - on paper anyway.

We did use Segura for a pitcher, Grienke just didn't stay around.

I think they should all stay. Letting them leave is just letting them off the hook, they need to clean up their own mess.

I'm glad Madson's about ready, we need someone to protect Blanton's leads, .....oh wait.

I was there, but must have missed it. But then my head was down most of the night avoiding Royal liners.

I was at the game too. I didn't know you could learn all of that from one game, I'm impressed.

Let him replace Butcher, he can tell the pitchers what not to do.

What's he upset about? He's a free agent after this year is up, he won't have to clean up his mess.

You don't "fire" people in baseball, you "replace" them. Given the track record to date, I'm not sure that's a good thing.

Good, I'm looking forward to seeing Iannetta in a Manny wig.

Trout 2-4, 1 single.

This team performed quite well after the slow start in 2012. There were plenty of reasons to be optimistic. Trout was clicking, Pujols was clicking, and players were settling into defined roles nicely. I think Arte and DiPoto got a little full of themselves thinking they could change it into something much better, it looks like they could not. They changed it into something worse, something ugly and inflexible, and Scioscia and his staff can't make soup out of garbage. That's my take. Who will go and who will stay is up to Arte, it's his team and eventually it will be his decision alone.

Anything will stick to a wall already covered in poop.

Well at least everyone can spell correctly. Three perfect titles.

Homebrewer, I don't have anything against you. Not everyone sees situations the same, and there are valid differing opinions throughout this site. Not everyone agrees how the situation with the team should be corrected. In the end that is up to Arte to decide, he owns the team, not the fans.

Yes, Barry Enright.
