35thstreetswarm Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 For all the talk about Mazara getting better of late, all he’s offered on last 30 games is the occasional single-hit game (usually a single). He’s likely not giving us anything we can’t expect even from cold Leury. Let Leury play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garcia is supposed to kill lefties and he looked awful yesterday. I know your point, I just disagree. Moncada, McCann and Madrigal also went 0 fer yesterday. That doesnt mean they were wrong moves. The only way to get unrusty is get your hacks in and Leury did that and needs more. Howevet if Mazara plays and does well Ill be happy. How has Mazara done against Bassitt in the past ?

He played in 16 games and was good for .6 bWAR and .4fWAR. Mazara meanwhile was good for -.3bWAR and .2fWAR. So while you may view them both as terrible options, the degree to which they are terrible is not the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I guess Renteria thinks Bassitt is left handed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reiks12 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Putting EE in the lineup is a joke in and of itself, but batting him FIFTH would be enough for me to shoot Renteria into the sun. THIS IS THE PLAYOFFS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 GRRRRR Hate this.. Why not play McCann.. Is Eloy really bad enough to NOT DH? Tells me he won't actually be available to pinch hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming it's the team holding him back. If eloy has structural damage in his foot/ankle than playing on one leg isn't going to do anybody any good and could lead to long term problems. This isn't a time to be a tough guy. Other guys will have to step up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
