Johnson, Theriot, DeRo and Soto were the hard workers last year, the grinders. This year no one fits into that mold. DLee is supposed to be the team leader, but he's the type of lead by example guy, and his example sucks right now. Bradley's health isn't the only problem with him, his childish/whiny persona at plate is irritating. Fukudome is practically playing his spring training, and he's kicking everyone's ass, that's pathetic.
I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but DeRosa not being here is about way more than his production. We thrived on his intangibles and his diversity, two things that this team needs badly. He was one of the biggest part of the "team" in every sense of the word. This "team" looks like 25 guys who just met, when they get on the field. No chemistry, no passion. Right now the way I see it, it's going to be a long time before this team will gel, if at all.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't think they want it enough. Maybe they should get into some fights or have Lou yell at an ump to light a fire under them.
Or they're 9-8 because of injuries and bad play.
Did people on this site expect them to go like 150-12 or something?
