Wow, I thought Pulliam was pulling his weight; pun intended.

ETA: The pic didn't load at first. I see now he's in Right. That's... interesting.

Pulliam is a much better 2nd baseman than Larry… Surely one of the other Freshmen could have played in the outfield…

It’s been stated in another thread; Stephen is more comfortable with Long than he is with Powell. It sucks, but it is what it is. At least Lem made moves to keep Powell’s bat in the lineup. It’s the best that can be expected.

Hopefully we don’t have multiple errors at 2B and RF tonight…

Random question. Anybody know why catchers are taught to catch with one knee on the ground nowadays?

I can’t see how anybody is comfortable throwing to Long, he jerks his arm around all over the place back there.
