DFW BK-1 Report

Heading out of Spring Training DFW had high hopes on the direction the team.  Well it didn't take long for reality to set in when the season started.   The Spurs finished BK-1 with a 15-31 record.  The bad news is just what the Spurs dreaded, a sophomore jink by their young guns.  Jason Heyward is batting .230 with 5hr & 11rbi.  Andrew McCutchen & Logan Morrison are hitting under the 'Mendoza Line', at .198 and .168.  McCutchen is leading team with 21r,  22rbi, & 8hr. 
 
Last year staff ace Colby Lewis (14-10, 3.65era),  is 1-7, with a 7.21era.  Tim Stauffer is 1-6, 5.91era, & Dustin Moseley is 0-4, 6.42era have 17 of the team's 31 loses.  The pitching staff is suffering a severe case of 'Gopheritis'.  In 46 games the staff has given up 64 homeruns.  Lewis has given up 14, Stauffer 13, and Jeff Karstens 9.  When asked how long has the staff has had 'Gopheritis', skipper Red Robbins said 'the last 6 years!'
