BOX SCORE
–Six losses in a row. Twelve losses in thirteen games. Since the All-Star break: 3-14. Last place in the National League Central. Things just keep getting worse.
“The snowball just keeps getting bigger, man,†starting pitcher Bronson Arroyo said. “The good teams find a way to stop these slides. We just keep finding ways to lose.â€Â
This team is a disaster. At least our general manager is optimistic; he thinks this team is one aged third baseman away from being a contender in 2010.
(Some actual, non-sarcastic, good news: it appears that Scott Rolen is okay after getting hit in the head by a Colorado pitch. No blurred vision, etc. We’ll keep our fingers crossed that everything is alright for him tomorrow.)
