He's a below average utility player that we knew would be overexposed yet chose to retain him for three years competing against no one

He’s not below average as a utility player given the number of positions that he can play and play well adequately defensively, and he has speed offensively.  
 

He’s only overexposed when he’s forced to start as much as he has.  Forget the injuries:  he’s overexposed partly because this front office failed to solve the second base issue over the offseason, and now Leury starts far more than he should.

He was always going to play a ton of games

Juan Soto‘s OBP last year was better than Leury‘s OPS this year. That’s a special case of awfulness

Moncada has been worse than Leury. 

It's hard to win when two players you were counting on have been historically bad. 

I mean, Grandal/Leury/Moncada have been worse than Dunn in 2011.

Cueto has been exactly what he needs to be.  Another quality start, giving up a few runs.  But once again no offensive support.

The lineup was not conducive to put a rally together with three guys hitting below the Mendoza line in the first 5 spots, where we should have had our best hitters.  F*uk the matchups, just play our best guys regardless.

I'd say it's offensive.

But yes - another solid outing by Cueto, all things considered. If we can get 6 innings / 3ER out of him every 5 days, I'd be thrilled.

The problem today is that he should not be hitting lead off.  Mendick has been doing well.  But TLR preferred a crappy switch hitter to a righty who has been hitting well because of the match up obsession.  Also no way Grandal should have hitting 5 th.  This game could have been tied with a better lineup construction.  It is still a winnable game, but is ever easy with TLR in command.
