    It was the 3rd. If we can't score 3 runs in 7 at bats we don't deserve to win.

    Can't lay an egg at crunch time. Laying a BIG ONE today. Walks, errors and Ks. But as LB says, that's baseball.

    Also, he's hitting 5-hole, not cleanup.
    You didn’t include his strike out stat or that he’s 0-2 today with 2 Ks. When he doesn’t hit, he doesn’t hit. Today, he’s not hitting.

    Yes, the strike outs are a concern, but you have to have him in the line-up.

    If Burroughs were Nostradamus, he wouldn't be submitting lineup cards for Louisiana Tech.

    Do strikeouts count more than groundouts, line outs, pop outs, and fly outs?

    Who you gonna put in his place?

    Other outs do at least have the potential to advance runners and maybe score runs, strikeouts don’t. I like Netterville and pull for him certainly, but when he’s not making contact, he has a really hard time at the plate. Anybody else may do better. You don’t know until you try.

    Whether it’s pitchers or hitters Burroughs rarely makes changes as needed before things implode. We’re seeing that play out today with only 3 hits through 6 innings. That decision making won’t win this game.

    It ain't Netterville's fault we are losing. Pick a player.
    Any player.

    You forgot strike outs. He’s #1 by a lot. He strikes out one of every 3 at bats. He can’t hit a breaking ball.

    Outs in play also have the potential to result in multiple outs that kill innings.

    Our best contact hitter has hit into 8x more double plays than Netterville, including one in this game.

    I bet you loved Burroughs bunt call at Rice that resulted in the triple play that ended the game.

    In the end, you can't name a single player to replace "1/10" Netterville because there is no one on our bench better than him. Steele earned that spot in the lineup with his production all season long. It'd be foolish to replace him with a less productive player.

    So what? Who are you replacing him with?

    Yea but he hasn’t gotten a hit so far today, so there’s no way he could possibly get a hit in future at-bats!

    Did I say anything about replacing him. Just pointing out a stat you failed to mention.

    I wasn’t inferring that ‘it’ was Netterville’s fault, he’s just one of the pack not getting it done... Bates is o-fer as is Garcia, as is Clayton and there are likely others.

    Strikeouts don't bother me. You are seeing record strikeout numbers in the big leagues now. I believe an out is an out no matter how it happens. When Steele makes contact, good things usually happen. The ones saying Steele shouldn't be in the lineup are talking crazy talk.
