The Awful Adam Eaton

Goes up against Dontrelle Willis tonight...kind of an interesting game because both teams find themselves having the same record as each other and while not much was expected of the Marlins, they have a lot of fun players to watch: Willis, Cabrera, Uggla and Hanley for starters. Meanwhile, the Phils were a lot of people's choices to win the East and they have looked...nebulous.

And while besides Dusty Baker, I don't believe too much about managers ruining things, Charlie Manuel looks like an idiot.

Would it be too much for them to go out and trade for a Jose Capellan or a Michael Wuertz? (Though the Cubs finally do seem to be figuring out that Michael Wuertz actually has some skills...)

Then they wouldn't be in this situation tonight, where Adam Eaton, in all liklihood, will give up a couple homeruns and put them in a position where they need to score seven or eight runs to beat Dontrelle and the Marlins.

Because I think by this point, if they had just left Myers alone, he'd be giving them more good starts by this point, then bad ones. Bad managers never seem to have this idea of "revert to the mean"....

This "revert to the mean" chatter is making the squirrels very angry, and you wouldn't like them when they're angry. Look, if a player sucks for three weeks, he sucks. You want proof? Behold the sucking.
