The NL really needs to get rid of the pitcher ABs. It's junk.

Joe Siddall may not be the most exciting personality but I think he adds some pretty valuable insight to the broadcast.

I have no comprehension for people who argue that the pitcher hitting is good after I watch a bases loaded with 1 out situation fizzle to nothing because the pitcher had to come up to hit.

The way they’re treating this bat story is insane.

“Vladdy used Marcel Ozuna’s bat last night. Huh, cool.”

“He got three hits and went yard.”

“Guess he was on to something . Curveball misses away, 2-0.”

This team has been fun to watch this year. Great comeback, again. Let’s try to get another and then close this out

Lost in this inning is that Vladdy hit a ball 115.7mph.

And now Biggio with a double! Keep the line moving.

To many, it wasn't about Shapiro and Atkins being bad as much as what they represented. To many it felt like Rogers took the criticism of their unwillingness to spend and said "okay we got a duo that's famous for getting results from a shoestring budget, is everyone happy now!".

All these years later and I'm happy with the results. I do hope that when the time comes Rogers will allow for some serious spending for at least a couple of years to "go all in" to compliment the team being built now.

If we become a contender and Rogers stays firm on an internal budget and we can't make that final push to win it all, then I'll pissed.
