Bumbling Diamondbacks lead the majors in errors

Augie Ojeda, who also had an error on Sunday, was one of the few players in the clubhouse when the media was allowed in. Ojeda urged his teammates to "take some pride." "We just have to go out there and do it for ourselves," Ojeda said. "We're professionals. We get paid a lot of money. We have to go out there and produce."

Hear, hear Augie - chalk up another reason why you're among my favorites on the current roster.

Responsibility?

What’s that?

Kudos to Augie for facing the music.

Funny, Brown doesn't offer a degree in slut!

Some of these players

Just have an undeserved sense of entitlement.

Agreed.

But I call it “idiocy”
But hey, we’ll still buy their jerseys ! !………………………………………………………………….
Went into Big 5 Sports yesterday, saw a Young jersey and Byrnes jersey…..they weren’t on clearance……and they weren’t paying anyone to take ’em……
Byrnes and Young…..LOL

Not willing to give Augie a pass

Glad that he can admit it and point at his teammates, but he’s just as at fault as others. The really sad part here is that nobody is improving. It’s getting worse from every aspect. That’s when you know the players have given up.

Way to call everyone out though, Augie. Oh, wait, remember this play?

“G. Matthews Jr. doubled to deep left, M. Izturis, B. Abreu and K. Morales scored, G. Matthews Jr. to third on third baseman A. Ojeda’s throwing error.” -Where you chucked the ball from 3rd about 10 feet over Montero’s head.

How about this one?

“A. Ojeda singled to shortstop, A. Romero to second " -Or, what that should have said, “A. Ojeda floats one over the 3rd baseman’s head, walks up the 1st base line about 10 feet, stands watching for a minute, and then only makes it to first because the 1st baseman dropped the throw.”

Josh Byrnes Sucks

Good for him

Perhaps he should take some iniative and jump some ass in the dugout and clubhouse
(figuratively of course)
Start calling people out, damage some egos. Start hammerin’ holes in the team bus to make it look mean Old time hockey, Eddie Shore, ….put a fuckin’ stick in their side let ‘em know you’re there

Sigh

It’s simply amazing the way they find new ways to lose day after day and each humiliating loss becomes the new low point of the season.

Do you realize how many fights I get into on a weekly basis defending the Dbacks. Some old lady the other day looked at my shirt and said “oh you like the loser ba…” and before she even finished I ripped her jaw off. I know it wasnt on the news but trust me fellas. Shit’s real.

If I see one more Eric Byrnes 'flip throw' I will shoot myself a whole bunch of times.
