#GuardsBall Our outfield trio of Kwan, Halpin, and Watson has to be one of the best defensive outfield groups anywhere.
The problem is they are easily, without any question, the worst hitting group you can imagine.
@KevinMc75511121 For sure. We brought in Hoskins. He’s terrible. And Jose is hurt. I have no idea what happened to Kwan. This is a failure of the Front Office, massively. No Jason Giambi, Napoli, Eddie Murray types. Just Fucking Hoskins.

Here’s the thing… this is your lineup until someone gets back. We wanted to see the young guys. Here they are. Let’s see if anyone can adjust. #GuardsBall
@DAmoreyouknow Hey ! We added Hoskins and Fairchild for the right handed hitting, and stacked the bullpen with Armstrong, he of the 2 walks per appearance !
#GuardsBall
So, tonight we have in our division thus far… Detroit, 8 runs. White Sox with two touchdowns and a field goal , and the Twins with 7 runs so far.
Cleveland ? 1 run on 4 hits. We’re not playing the same sport.
#GuardsBall
Ok, here we go again. If you were warming up Sabrowski , why did you bring in Herrin first ? Same thing with Espino… why not bring in Gaddis first ?
NONE of this really matters if you stoped scoring in the first inning, but sheesh.
#GuardsBall
If you were to list the problems on this team, clearly hitting is number 1. But, a really close second is the damn bullpen. Herrin has been a mess. Gaddis nowhere near his last couple of seasons. Festa is, well, Festa. Holderman and Smith are the only 2 reliable arms. #GuardsBall
So, no matter how this inning turns out, what I don’t get is bringing in Herrin to pitch to the heart of the order, with Sabrowski warming up. Why not just start the inning with Sabrowski, if you think he is better than Herrin ?#GuardsBall
Cantillo has found something with his curve/changeup mix that is wild. Mix in the occasional heater, and it’s a thing of beauty to see. The catcher calling the pitches is key. #GuardsBall
