You know when Dan Haren has a 1.89 ERA and is 0-3, that your team is awful.

Who is the top player in the 2010 draft because we're going to be in the running.

The player I am most disappointed in is Justin Upton. Granted he is only 21 years old but he was suppose to be a franchise player. Baseball experts were projecting him to be the first $200M player he'd be lucky to get the league minimum playing like this. You can criticize Rick Schu and Bob Melvin as their coaching stinks but some responsiblity should fall on the player.

Right now Dunn is hitting .310 with 3 HR, 11 RBI, 12 BB, 8 Ks, he is the offensive threat we need in the middle of the order.

So true. How he could help a guy batting ahead of him see good pitches and gain needed confidence. Someone like . . . oh, I don't know . . . maybe . . . oh . . . Justin Upton.

The D'backs are penny wise and pound foolish, as the old saying goes.

Under current leadership, there is just no respect for baseball fundamentals. "Mad Scientist" indeed.

This team has no heart because Bob "The Tinman" Melvin is at the helm. Isn't this exactly what happened to the Mariners under his bland leadership?

Sorry, this team has not improved from last season and I have already seen enough to know that it won't change until change is made in managers and coaching. Props to Dan Haren for giving his all, but he does not deserve to have 3 losses.

Looking at the Dodgers young guys like Martin, Kemp & Loney, its makes me wonder why our guys aren't as productive as these guys.

On 12 Sports Night, the pit guest mentioned that alot of these guys were rushed up: Reynolds skipped AAA, Upton basically did the same thing as he didn't get many AB in AAA, Connor has struggled and Drew is hurt. The guy even went on to speak the truth about how everyone in the organization is regretting the Byrnes extension and how he and Rauch should not be on this team.

We are in for a long season.

Demote Rauch. Sit Byrnes. Fire Melvin & Schu. Gibson new manager.
