Rookie pitcher, gives up 6 walks and they cant do anything.

Even get one hell of a game from Pettitte. Damn, games like this make me sick.

******* pathetic, but what do you expect when Garner starts Lane AND Ensberg? That's 5 guaranteed outs when you throw in Everett, Ausmus, and Pettitte. Disgusted.

Hey, Pettitte has half as many homeruns as Brad Ausmus, so thats only 19 outs.

Yeah, maybe we should start using Pettitte and Oswalt as PH's.

who else you going to put out there?? thats the problem, it's just a bad offensive team. they were the definition of over achievers last year. i couldn't believe they got such a great start because this is how i thought the whole season would go.

We just aren't a good offensive team...10th shutout of the year I believe??? Correct me if I'm wrong. We have too many holes in our lineup to consistantly score runs. FRUSTRATING!

For real, its time to give Lamb and Huff more of a chance. Huff has been playing pretty much daily, why yank him? Plus, look at what Lamb was doing when he was playing daily.

Tavares
Everitt
Berkman
Huff
Scott
Lamb
Biggio
Ausmus
Pitcher

Yes, I say put Everitt in the 2 hole. Take the bat out of his hands. The guy is a good bunter. It ***** T can get on, let Everitt bunt him over and let ***** start running. Put Biggio in some more meaningful AB's. Its not the best offensive club, but you have 4 guys that are 20 homer guys with 3 of them batting around .300. More than enough to get some runs on the board.

Today was pathetic.

Put the pressure back on Ensberg to EARN his spot on third. Yank him and let Huff play there. At least Huff doesn't dive out of the way of strikes slightly inside. Look at the small silver linings from yesterday and today, Burke and Scott (0-3 today though). They need to be in the line-up right now.

Everrett is not a number 2 hitter
