T R U Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 17 losses in a row, 27-84 record. How on earth does the manager keep his position here. They don't care. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible glove everywhere, although I have not seen him play 1b. Maybe he’s decent there? If he does not hit — a lot — this is going to go down as one of the biggest missed opportunities in baseball over the last decade. I would have preferred Norby/Stowers. Hopefully, he hits and proves me wrong. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He comes across like such an idiot when he mentions they can only focus on one aspect. He’s going to end up with the worst record of any GM in history by the time he’s done.

T R U Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 JR should be absolutely embarrassed with the product being put on the field right now. How can any self respecting businessman watch this and just continue to let it ride. And even if all hes cares about is making money, there is no way this isn't negatively impacting that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it’s killing the fan base. The post game show is like a funeral. Beckham basically saying no player is trying to earn a spot on this team.

bmags Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I just have to say that I hate this team so much, I don't particularly like any player on it, I hate every coach on it and f*** jerry reinsdorf. Thank you. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckham basically saying no player is trying to earn a spot on this team. I just keep going back to if you look at the 2017 roster, with wily garcia/leury garcia/avi garcia outfield, playing alen hansen like 60 games. Bad Tim anderson, bad first year moncada. Bad Giolito and Lopez. Good first half quintana and a 5 ERA Ivan Nova. Mostly scraps. That team's record will finish, what, 25 games above this one? There is something so wrong here. The padres were crucified that year they drafted like 6 rule 5 players and they finished with like 68 wins. This level of bad is impossible, there are many AAA teams that could still get to 45 wins in the big leagues. And this team, with a bonafide ace, and often decent starting pitching, will not sniff it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ownership/management team rubs me as if they're content with this losing situation. They've done nothing to improve this team since the beginning of this season.

I keep saying this, but major league teams just aren’t designed to lose this much. Something is seriously wrong. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
