Well yes he is . Decker who ? We had a lot of OF talent in those days . Polanco (nice call) , Willie Garcia , and Josh Bell who we made a 1b after Dickerson struggled trying to play 1b. We tried Allie to that year i think? Both were at different levels. Dickerson had a solid AA season when we traded him.Decker was an obp machine.

Dude didnt get a fair shake from the Bucs .They had a guy who hits. But they got rid of him when he coulndnt play 1b and then traded him for an OF who cant hit but takes walks :-* its not suprising that he has found his way to the show . Got in hurt i think after we traded him but the Pads stuck with him . And now they seem to have a player.

Good for them ::)

Kuhl didn't let the 1st inning get to him. Both he and Brault have shown that they are battlers when things don't go in their favor.

JHay is simply superhuman on the bases. That was flat out impossible.

People on here love to complain about him, but if we had a team that played as hard as does every play we'd be champions.

I really like Kuhl. And you're right - I think he was initially rattled but he's been excellent since the 2nd.

Gotta love the 3 run bomb. Good to have Polanco back in the lineup. Big big hit to break this game open.

Francisco misses a 3run blast by about a foot!

Jaso just sucks at everything...maybe we need to have a Joey Portor scenario where both Jaso and Bell walk into a dark alley and only one walks out...I'm pretty sure which of the two would walk out...
