Doesn't that constitute asking?

I was at training until late, then had a two hour drive home. With Webb pitching, I figured they'd lose, but by reading the recap and IGY's always colorful comments, I'm pleased I missed another Myers hack job.

chokes last seven games

2 for 24
12 k's

He should still be batting clean-up though. For sure.

I didn't see the game last night, but the other night when power-pitcher Micah Owings was in, they went right after him. He scares no one, and has holes in his swing so big it's farging unbelievable.

you dont move him after a five week slump....especially after last year when he was horrible and rebounded with a half decent year....if he doesnt break out of this funk in the next month or so then his career is probably over but he at least deserves that much


i know it would have been an extremely hard trigger to pull but i wanted them to trade him this past offseason...his value was still really high and now its in a full blown recesssion

I sort of agree, but I think you have to consider how bad a slump this is. He looks absolutely lost, and I haven't seen any signs that he could be coming around.

you need 4 k's per game in the middle of the lineup. keep him there. it just makes too much sense.

[QB Eagles]

Pretty soon, people won't be debating whether or not to move him, but whether he should be moved further back in the lineup or to Lehigh Valley. I'm not sure it can really be called a slump when the numbers are that bad for that long, and seemingly getting worse. That's like a great depression.

totally lost and clueless.  I cringe when i see him on deck and have now resorted to leave the room when he bats. .161 jeez.
