Fighting Ferrets No More

Jason Kubel is hitting .347, Denard Spann .298. No one else, including Justin Morneau, is over .250. Joe Mauer played nine games before going on the DL and is still there. 


I looked it up: The Ferrets are last among the 30 teams in: runs, home runs, runs batted in, total bases, on-base percentage, slugging average, total plate appearances, number of pitches seen, extra-base hits, and OPS (on-base plus slugging). They're fourth from the bottom in team batting average (.230). 


Even the Phillies, with their starting rotation, would have trouble winning. 


They're next to last in winning percentage (.343 after tonight's 10-2 loss to the Tigers, 12-23 record, barely ahead of the Astros). 


All the bite has gone out of the Piranhas. 


The only thing out of the ordinary, for 2011, at Ferret Field tonight was the fourth inning storm that dumped marble-sized hail on the playing surface.
