Ervin Santana To AAA Marching And Chowder Society Starts Now: Royals 12, Angels 4

That does it. Santana gives up six runs, on no strikeouts, two walks, a wild pitch and two hit batters, and nine hits including two dongs, to a crappy team like the Royals. This team has games to win. One step forward, two steps back with him.

Update: Okay, I realize the Angels don't have the pitching depth to spare to ship him down to AAA with all the injuries and near-injuries they've got in the rotation. But God I'm sick of this.

Update 2: And the Angels bullpen compounds the situation by giving up a five-run turd in the top of the ninth. Bootcheck I can maybe tolerate given his inexperience, but Oliver, are you bucking for a DFA?

Update 3: Kendry goes yard. Get your plane tickets ready for the Bronx, Shea.

Have you tried cognac?
 
I'll admit Stoneman might have been better off trading Santana last year, when his value was high. Granted he's only 24 years old right now, so there is time to improve. He's got the tools, now it's just time to learn how to pitch.
 
Gin and tonic.
 
The problem I have with Santana is that he has always been inconsistent. Always.
 
If we keep this up, this will become THE alternate game thread hangout.

BTW, Wood didn't strike out tonight in 5 AB.
 
He's been pretty good that way lately. I've been really impressed, actually.
 
Mathis was 2 for 4 with a 3B.
Brown, 3 for 3, 2HR.
In the words of the Rev, "You never know."
 
Mathis is young enough that he might turn into a princess, or at least not be a pumpkin.
 
21 HR & 26 2B in 2005 in AAA.
6 HR & 33 2B in '06.
Something happened.
