The Bobby Abreu Tracker Thread

Last night's loss was Brett Myers fault.  Guess what, folks?  He's still not an ace.

[SunMo]

I'd go more Lieberthal/Gordon.  Myers, his poor performance notwithstanding, only gave up 3 runs.

if anyone gets blamed for last night it was the lack of clutch hitting by utley bell and lieberthal in the 9th...you gotta get a run or two home there...but really no one is at fault....they simply lost to a superior team

[PhillyGirl]

The lack of clutch hitting was the bottom line on that game, exactly.

[Rome]

There was plenty of blame to go around last night.

0-13 in the first two games with risp is a bad sign.  Walking six batters is worse.  Having Loserthal in there at all is inexcusable at this point.  He's clearly done so why he's still in the line-up is a question that Manuel had better be prepared to start answering pretty soon.

He's making comments about David Bell's job being "his to lose" so why isn't he saying the same thing about Lieberthal?

you realize that sal fasano is the back up
you really want him starting?
i realize your message board thing is now to hate on leiberthal no matter what but the fact is
they dont have another option right now

[Rome]

Are you honestly suggesting that Fasano isn't a better option than Lieberthal at this point?

Fasano is a better option, as is the guy they just sent back down Coste.

[Rome]

Agreed. 

A platoon of Fasano & Chris Coste would be a much better option than a completely spent Lieberthal, PG.

[SunMo]

Fasano and Lieberthal are going to give you the same offensively, maybe Lieberthal gives you a little more, but not much.

Fasano is going to give you so much more defensively, which is what they need.  Fasano should play at least 3 times a week.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I think Sun_Mo would be a better option than Lieberthal at this point.

[SunMo]

my knees are shot man.

but this is the Bobby A. tracker thread.

take this conversatoin over to the Phillies thread, yo.

[Wingspan]

Maybe he gets railed for it because he rarely, if ever, gets his fricken uniform dirty playing the position?

looks like we need to keep an abreu stain count too.

i mean really i've seen him literally napping in RF. and there has been innings at a time where he's sipping some sangria on a lawn chair. lazy bum.

[Rome]

I chuckled at that.  Snorted, actually.

absolutely 100% NOT...leiberthal stinks but sal fasano is not even a major leaguer
