He is looking lost at the plate.

When the coaches decide to.

It will probably be similar to the process of benching Smith. No need to attack players and single them out.

Ummmm. Not attacking just stating the obvious

Okay.

Who are you replacing him with?

I guess smith, at least with smith there is potential for power

....I'd move him to the 9 hole before benching him. He did MUCH better there, and just looked more comfortable.

I agree with this statement. He was absolutely on fire from that spot.

I would go back to putting Smith at third and Collazo at second. Curl airmailed 2 throws to first in the last two games. But... I am not a coach and I do not know these players nearly as well.

Collazo is the baseball equivalent of a tease. He looks like a guy that should/could hit leadoff or #2 in the order, but he simply does not produce on a consistent basis. He fooled Deggs most of last season.

I guess knowing these players on a more personal level makes thongs a bit different. You guys are vicious with comments about these kids.

I agree that he nor Smith are hitting well at all but they know it so do their families and so do their coaches. We all just hope the coaches are putting the right people in the right spots to win games.

Please note that comments on this thread are mild compared to others so I wasn't singling anyone out.

Lay off Andrew!!! The only problem he has is it gets in his head when he strikes , or flies or gets throw out at first. Andrew keep your head up if this happens, you are a hell of a player and don't let these bone heads rattle you! Shake it off as we say!

no they are not. I swear what is about the baseball board that the minute somebody says something that isn't an undeserved showering of praise that everybody comes unglued. Grow another layer of skin, people.

I do not like attacks, REAL attacks, on players either. But simple statements of fact or opinion that a player or coach isn't getting it done should be perfectly fair game for a friggin message board. That's what they are for, and I have seen nothing on this thread that is out of bounds.

note to all the guys on the board. i was the first to raise concern about collazo. time to eat some crow

I knew it wouldn't be long before you showed up

And just as an FYI Collazo is not in the starting lineup today.

Who's playing 3B today?

Adam smith.

Adam Smith is not doing well at the plate.

Good news. Thanks Wildman. Hope he does well

Aggie third basemen are 0 for the weekend going into the 7th inning of today's game

Definitely need more production from the hot corner.

The big questions is, who is going to give it to us?
