hankchifan Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 At least Pollock trade is looking better. Pollock starting to hit. Tonight Kimbrel gave up two runs late to Cleveland in a tied game, and the Dodgers lost. Kimbrel ERA is over 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys like Abreu, Robert, Vaughn, Burger, zpollock can reach the Crawford boxes but none did. It’s like hitting the Monster at Fenway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Moncada needs to be on IL or hit in the 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that Pressly is easy for even the best hitters. Would take my chances with Zavala over Hasely particularly when we need a homer to tie in the 9th. TLR should know this as well.

Greg Hibbard Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) I hope this series clarified that we need to move on from guys like Harrison and Haseley if we are going to win in the playoffs. If TA and Eloy come back for the entire rest of the way I think this team is going to win a lot more.

wegner Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) I just don't think this team is much more than a .500 ballclub. I'll probably change my mind later in the week when they play the Orioles....easiest schedule in AL, they can do it.

Capn12 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 What a dreadful bench we have right now. Some guys need to get healthy, man up, whatever....you can't ride through these series, with your bench options being the likes of Adam Engel, Seby Zavala, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s all so frustrating because they aren’t good enough while this banged up and short benched to make a big move, but they also aren’t bad enough to fall completely out of it. Truth be told, when I step back, I’m kind of amazed they didn’t fall into a complete black hole / death March / 10 losses in a row debacle with TA out. Thank god for Mendick and Vaughn.
