    Their games are usually like watching old people get it on, slow and painful.

    This is what I was hoping Gardner would do. But with a little more steals and a higher average. Took him too long though. He is striking out a lot. But also walking more so I guess they cancel out. I guess this is his aberration year.

    Gardner so far best offensive player on this team and he slides head first into first base.

    You were hoping Gardner would be better than this? Wasn't Phil Hughes your boy?

    This is what I was hoping he would be in terms of power. But with more steals and a higher average.

    That's a bit unrealistic, no? What ever gave you the impression he was capable of that?

    Not like 25-30 hr perennially. But a couple 15-20. And I thought he would get more infield hits like Ichiro used to. But his obp is still good.

    That's fair. I feel like he doesn't hit as many grounders as Ichiro but I could be off on that. I do agree with the more stolen bases thing though. He is a poor base stealer for his speed. That said, I have no complaints with him this year.

    Phillies wanted Severino or Judge for Marlon Byrd. HAHAHAHAHAHAH. Cole Hamels, perhaps.

    Tanaka feels good and no pain after 50 pitch game of catch.

    Oh man, if we get him and a solid Pineda back for the stretch, we could make a serious push for the playoffs. I just don't see the consistency in our rotation as is to make it happen. Bats are coming around. Would hate to see Jeter miss the playoffs.
