Lopez has a career OBP of <.300 and a career OPS of <.700. Those are both real bad.

He's definitely not a bad backup though. He has nice range at 3rd.

The umpires blow another call at second. It's nice catching a break once in a while.

Masterson. Wow. Buster Olney just tweeted that Masterson's command issues reminds him of another former dominant sinker Baller. Fausto... Er... Robert Hernandez.

Masterson has definitely reverted back to 2009/2010 form.

It's not a good sign when we can't even beat the Royals.

No other way to put it.,..Masterson was terrible. You know who else sucks?.....maybe even worse than Marson? (if that's possible)...Carlin...He couldn't handle Masterson's slider worth sh##. Terrible technique. trying to backhand balls instead of sliding his body out to block the pitch in the dirt. SMH. Half the team out there was at AAA (or lower) a month ago. Nice that Diaz got his cup of coffee....now send him back down and bring back Jason Donald.

^^^^so's my dinner.


and with the loss and the ChiSox win...we are in second place.


It's the end of May, the batting average is sinking, and Travis Hafner is hurt....who'd a thunk it?

I thought we'd start to slide after the all-star break (ala 2011), but I was wrong...it's gonna' be a loooong season :(

What a joke, how can you be so fucking fragile playing baseball? What a huge dissapointement his career has been. Can't wait for Strikemore to come in and save the season :rolleyes:.

Is it just me, or is Masterson's velocity down considerably from last year? He seems to be sitting about 91-92 mph on that sinker this year. Thought he was closer to 95-96 last year. His biggest problem is he can't get lefties out again, which was his problem 2 years ago. Throwing that 91-92 mph sinker to lefties you better have great command. Throwing a 95-96 mph sinker gives him much more room for error.

Last year his fastball averaged 94.18 and the sinker 92.7. This year, so far, he's at 91.91 and 90.36
