Dominikk85 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I actually like how TLR communicated this so far by saying "I'm sure there is a reason" because it gives both a way out saving their face. Now yermin just needs to come up with a good excuse and anyone can move on. Just has to make sure it it doesn't repeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't get four hits without two Yerminators! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m assuming it’s because they won yesterday and it’s his thread at this point. Honestly did not know. I joined late last season. Any other “unwritten rules” new posters should be aware of? Ah yeah, innocent mistake and we're an hour out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautox Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I'm fine with Eaton getting a rest, hes struggled mightly and looked gimpy out there. As for lamb vs. mercedes...come on, give him a fine in kangaroo court and move on don't put lamb at DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) Yermin needs to take accountability, his actions are hurting the team now. Edited May 2, 2021 by Soxfest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite man management, bro! Leury garcia has played 7 games in the past 7 days. Lol Meanwhile Vaughn, Yermin, and Madrigal have had 5 games off total. It gets dumber though because Tony was already wanting to play Jake Lamb today anyway because he can't have a game where at least two bench bats play, gotta keep them from getting stale while the starters have the texture of croutons because of how little they've played 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLR supposedly plays the bench guys so much to keep them fresh, but is going to have Mercedes have five straight off days outside of pinch hitting. I actually like that Tony is holding Yermin accountable for his actions, but I would tried punishing him a different way given the broader circumstances.

There was no need to get Lamb in there. This isn't college baseball, and I don't know about you but I don't get sent home from the office if I were late because we're adults and mistakes happen and you still have to do your job. Punishing the team and decreasing the likeliness of winning to "send a message" to a 28 year old man is amateurish at best.

Tbh, Yermin should start over Jose at least once during that series at 1B. Hopefully he's been working on his defense there. Jose has been bad and still hasn't gotten a day off. We need Yermin's bat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
