IRON PIGS MONTH IN REVIEW

Joey Morris, Gus Garcia, and Justin Krieg appear to be the only guys who knew the real season started. Not one focal point but just a horrible month all around. Early slumps by McLain and a month long slump and probably the worst month of his short career for Jesse Roberts. Dames stuggled all month too. Jose Nieves is off to another slow start.
JJ Sandberg isn't showing the power arm we were expecting but more importantly he's only given us 26 IP in 5 starts but he's out of options. He'll be moved into the bullpen with Sean Garrison and Danny Eckenrode, who threw really well in April (1-0 1.40 in 18 IP) exchanging places for a few weeks. Nick Terrell was the other choice as he went 3-0 3.65 in April but he's out of options and not on the 40 man after being DFA'd at the end of camp. I'll have him as next in line if this does not work out. Sandberg will actually start on Friday to keep guys on their days but move to the bullpen on Sunday with Eck moving into the rotation.
I don't really have a solution or a “quick fix”, the team just needs to play better. Not sure I have a 'move' to make that happen.
