Brett Myers Has Dug Himself A Hole

First it was the stadium's fault that he was giving up homeruns, er uh, "pop-ups". And he was so frustrated by his inadequacies on the mound he took it out on a reporter.

Now he's blaming his fielders or just bad luck, I can't tell which. He was saying something about how he was making good pitches. If they were bad pitches they would have been hit harder. Sure, there is something to be said for texas leaguers, dying quails, flares and seeing-eye-singles, the bottom line is you gave up 4 runs in 1 1/3 innings. That's not good. Take the blame, swallow your pride and pitch better next timie.

Never has it crossed his mind that perhaps he has a 5.09 ERA is because he's not making good pitches.

Bretty Myers needs to learn that sometimes it might be his fault. I don't think this fan base is going to embrace him like they once did. It all started with the incident with his wife, and since then he's continued to dig himself deeper and deeper.
