Beltran has a slide-phobia now?

I really hope tron was dead in the water there to not bother sliding...the camera view wasn't so great...

I think he was dead, but I also think that Beltran is really averse to risking any contact.

Can they send him down to the minors temporarily without his consent? May not help, but would make me feel better.

Jerry said he's going to give the rotation one more chance before changes are made. Lets see if he is making idle threats or not.

Sounds fairly idle to me. What are his options? Is Niese or anyone at AAA doing anything promising enough to warrant a promotion?

No, Niese has been pounded.

$12 million a year for this. Can't pull him from the rotation yet. It's not even May. But it might be just one or two more starts. $12 million a year.

12 million a year...for 2.5 more years

Hopefully he turns it around.

I'd give Perez 1 more chance, then the minors or long relief or something. A competing team can't take an automatic loss every 5th game.

if livan pitches decently his next start, redding should temp replace ollie in the rotation. he needs to go to the minors, throw strikes, and gain some confidence.

manuel has been awful. Beltran should be benched tomorrow for not sliding again. Murphy swung at a 2-0 pitch with 1st and 2nd no outs and us down by 3 .... i blame manuel for that too .... TELL THESE GUYS TO TAKE DAMMIT.

this team is awful right now
