I would be beside myself excited. Its never going to happen tho. We could lost 15 in a row with Leury at the 3 hole every game and nothing would happen.

I'd literally prefer Hahn, a man with zero on field coaching experience, manage this team. The manager's one job is to put his team in the best position to win. For 175 games now, we can clearly say that TLR does just the opposite more often than not. I've said it before and I will say it again, you can't deny TLR's management resume. He is, in fact, a HOF. But this just a different game than the one he managed. He's drunk at the wheel. This team isn't good enough to coast through this season.

You damn well know he's thinking it.

We need to avoid double headers at all costs because 1 DH will basically mean we punt the series. It’s obvious what TLR DH philosophy is and it’s not one that promotes in on field success.

JFC. That’s all I have to say.

Yep. That’s the point. Games long since passed him by. Fairly convinced a random middle school coach with moderate team knowledge could do a better job. It’s amazing.

These are valid concerns.

It was really bad today. But this team is and will be so much better than that. but today was awful in very respect expect the bullpen.

Nah, it’s not that simple. Our best players didn’t play after 2 days off. It was dumb. And even if you do that, why no pinch hitting when the game is in reach late? Game was given away. Why? No idea.

Because their careers and talent level is going to give you a better chance to win that quite literally the worst lineup your roster allows you to construct. This game was punted. No effort to win.

We are. TLR has forgotten more about the game than most of us will ever know. But he has no clue what he’s doing, and this isn’t new. He’s been awful since day 1.

If we get a runner on and don’t see some pinch hitting I might lose my mind. My disgust for TLR is so hard to look past.

The TLR way.

Not sure why you don’t run Engel there. It’s not like the top of the lineup next inning is worth not trying.

Don’t expect more than vague mentions.

I’m not ready to say he sucks but failing to have him be a backup plan instead of THE plan was nuts. Would help if we could actually have our A lineup for a game. Yet to happen.

He does. Just needs some PT out there. Prob been mostly taking reps in RF. He looked pretty comfy for a good chunk of last season in LF.

Stoney not too subtle about his dislike for Tony’s lineup.

Guys a d bag. He gave up 9 straight hits. Defense was in fact atrocious, but that isn't the way to address it. Wish we had the depth to jettison his ass to the moon.

Well, can't be worse than game 1.

Let's strive to do better than game 1.

Can we move Moncada back to the 3B yet?

About 15 ticks lower on wRC+ across his career. Luis is going to be an absolute star in this game. He looks like shit at the plate the last 10 days or so, but he'll be fine. Relax.

Lol...jack.....Luis has a 128 wRC+ in his first 560 MLB plate appearance. How in the fuck does that lead to "most of his value tied to defense". You're insane.

Severino!? Will he kill someone today?! Its anyone's guess.
