Well at least I don't have to read this forum clamoring for Frazier anymore. The man is hitting .037. Where's Freddy ?

I sense that some of you have begun to lose your optimism.

Perhaps my 50-112 prediction was a little ambitious.

Look at the bright side. There are still two clubs even worse at the moment. I can't see how that's even possible.

Maybe their GMs are seeing what they have, too.

Worst part about it? At least the Rockies can blame it on dumping Nolan Arenado. Somehow, dumping Josh Bell didn't seem as damaging.

It's been more damaging to the Nats.

I saw his stats about a week ago and posted about it on The Departed thread. Listened to a couple Nats games on MLBNR.

I couldn't believe that they kept giving him that much playing time. He better start hitting or he won't have to worry about Joe raising his taxes.
