-Piazza is finished. Looks like nice guy, but he's all done.
-Cust is the real deal.
-Murphy looking better, but if he replaces Crosby I'd be surprised.
-Kotsay is an excellent CF, but he's the biggest rally killer since Kendall.
-Dye looks a bit heavy. I remember him as thinner.
-Casilla is not the answer to anything.
-Other teams can bunt successfully.
-This is not a team that can manufacture runs
-What a nice feeling not to have Kennedy
-Swisher has guts, is fun to watch and badly needs a rest.

Personally, I miss having Kotsay on the DL, but as bad as he is overall, he is seriously bad against lefties sporting a BA of .130 and an OPS of .332. Yup that's right an OPS of .332 - He couldn't even hold Ken Doll's jockstrap
