Capn12 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Abreu is an 0 for his next 3 away, from being under 200. I don't care what the weather is, that isn't acceptable in any way, from your 'MVP'. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Next new thread will be back to Fire Rick Hahn...well simply because JR won’t shitcan TLR. Tauchman just hit a three run homer for SFG, by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that has watched a full season of baseball knows that world series contenders have depth. Sure you can't replace an all star with another one on the bench, but the other contenders aren't coming with the stuff we have and certainly would have made a move. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 With as many problems as this team has had, if we can continue to hover just above a .500 record until we get Robert back, i think this team is still in great shape to straighten itself out and go on a tear where they win 15/20 and take control of this division, especially given how the twins have struggled so far. I can’t imagine this royals record will last. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a dual issue, because they do have solid players but Tony refuses to use them regularly. When Engel returns, if Hahn doesn't DFA Lamb, he'll still be playing left, along with Leury, and Hamilton, and Nick Williams, and they will bat 5th through 7th, because they "earned it".

Well our full lineup when healthy is perfectly fine. But Engel and Garcia are our lead backups. No power there. Then you have Collins and Mendick and Lamb. More nothing burgers right now in terms of power or skill. We really needed to be lucky and avoid injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are about to play some offenses that are either hot or can get hot quick. This will take place all the way through the 26th of the month. Have to play well just to stay afloat during this stretch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine with bench players playing, but it should be 1 per game, and they shouldn't bat 5th. The wrong people are on the roster (Mendick over Lamb). Leury plays more than Vaughn. Tony's creating new positions for Lamb to play in his age 30 season. If Ricky attempted any of this, he would be crucified, and justifiably so. Tony does it and when he is called out, its "ageism" and "he's a hall of famer". People in the hall of fame are long removed from the game and or dead. There is a reason no manager will ever return in a similar manner. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
