Louis: You didn't mention the dissension in the dugout on Wednesday night, between Brandan Hyde and Chris Davis...very not good! Trumbo is back? that is certainly desperation or a desire between Trumbo and Davis to permantly own the most strike outs by hitter record, eh? My mercy, hon, things ain't good.

I did not mention it because it's no big deal, It's Baseball, that's all. Earl Weaver was one to turn up the heat and let things boil over from time to time before stirring the pot. It's not just baseball, it's sports in general. You get that many Alpha-males together and there is bound to be some conflict.
The hope is Trumbo will return in September, God knows we could sure use his bat. The problem is, what do we do with another weak defender?
Speaking of good hitters, poor defenders, did you see what happened to DJ Stewart? In Tuesday nights game he dove/flopped on the ground for a ball he should have gotten to on his feet. He missed the ball, to add injury to insult the ball hit him in the head. He is on the 7-day IL with a concussion.
Great defense can look effortless. Bad defense can look like an old Saturday Night Live skit with Chevy Chase.
Speaking of Saturday Night Live, I still like to say "Beisbol been bery bery good to me"
