Huge road trip, especially with that horrible loss against the Nats on Sunday. We only have to go 3 games above .500 for the remainder of the season to get 90 wins, which is what I think it will take to win the NL West.

I hated the BK Kim acquisition and if he lays another egg tonight he should be sent to the bullpen or released. He's a horrendous pitcher and has a piss-poor attitude which should result in a tight leash. He's the type of player who can hurt a clubhouse. Plus, Edgar is a more productive starter and we have Kenndey as well

We need Young to start swinging the bat better and stay productuve in the leadoff spot. Our lineup 2-5 right now looks very good and can hopefully stay that way.

A win tonight would be huge

And...Kim gives it back +1 before retiring a batter. :(

Edit: 3 runs (and counting)...no outs.

That's it. I've officially seen enough of BK. 3-1, no outs. BK is getting hammered.

Release him, cut your losses, call up Petit and hope for the best.

BK sucks.

I was willing to give him a chance as a #5 pitcher. But he is an absolute headcase. I can't believe he used to be one of the best closers in baseball.

1 out, 4 runs, 2 more men on. I guess there's a reason 2 other teams got rid of him this year....

Edgar Gonzalez with the 1st inning save. Hopefully he can go a long way tonight.

Time to hit!

Rookie mistake by Upton costs us a run (gotta run hard around third) and we leave 'em loaded in the 2nd.

Yikes...now 3 runs without an out in the 2nd. 7-1. This is looking like it's going to be our first losing streak in a long time. :(

Not a good time to have a crappy pitching outing considering how good the Marlins are offensively.

7-1 already ugh

I was looking forward to this game. I've got a bit of work to catch up on and I always work best while having the dbacks on in the background.

Thanks for ruining my night guys! :titanic:

Hate to say I told you so (even though everyone feels the same way).

BK sucks, by far the worst pitcher on our team and I can't believ Byrnes brought him onboard. He's not a good pitcher and is notorious for his bad attitude/clubhouse cancer. Why would Byrnes bring that into such a good clubhouse w/ young players?

To me this is by far his worst move to date as a GM. His best will be to cut him tomorrow (and absord the 800K or whatever we owe. What a horrible move).

I can't believe the Dbacks are gonna let Willis get his first win in a month and a half! Byrnes needs to be signing the paperwork to release Kim now. I will buy him a one way ticket back to korea right now.

Kennedy is horrible too. Two horrible pickups by Josh. Both need to be released.

Kennedy has already thrown a wild pitch three HBP and a walk and 4 runs. do you think the new pitchers got together and tried to find a way to sabatoge the DBacks or what?
