I wonder why that is, but it's no wonder that we drafted and signed nothing but fireballers for years. We're scared to have pitchers who allow hitters to put the ball in play, because no one trusts our defense to make even routine plays. This is all on Hendry too.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If I felt like we'd hit and pitch like we did in 08, I certainly wouldn't care as much about our defense. But when you're average everywhere else, you better make routine plays. Instead, we're still dropping routine pop ups in shallow left field with 3 guys there like was the case 20 minutes ago.
