Listening to Neil's Sunday interview right now and he sounds pretty defensive. Even with the relatively friendly questioning of Greg Brown.

Gonzalez has to play because it's Sunday. But at least Brault is in the lineup so they still have a threat with the bat at the bottom of the order. And I guess when you lose 23 of 27, it doesn't make much difference who plays. I don't like the chances of winning today either.

Looks like that time off worked for Josh.

You've got to be kidding me.

That may be the worst managing Clint Hurdle has ever done. And I fully understand the magnanimous nature of that statement.

if there is one thing NH can do it is to build a bullpen for not a lot of money.

Of course this season is the exception.

This team is a total train wreck right now.
