Milt Thompson speaks: "Phillies lineup is horrible!"

During the middle of last night's win over the Nats the TV broadcast featured quotes from Phillies hitting coach Milt Thompson. He had this to say, "...I've never coached a team where the players underachieved their capabilities the way these players have this year." Gee, Milt, I agree in principle but aren't you the HITTING COACH?!?! Is it not Milt's job to help not only the veterans get out of slumps but also to facilitate the transition to the Majors for our younger players? I guess Bruntlett would not be an example of Milt Thompson's expert coaching techniques. Two years with Ryan Howard and every pitcher in the league still knows exactly what to throw to strike him out. Not to mention we have one of the worst lead off bats in the NL this year. Milt Thompson,like Jimmy Rollins, should probably stop giving interviews.
