fathom Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 It's truly incredible how many awful things this team does at the plate. Not only that, but it's freaking hilarious that Ventura keeps letting Flowers face the righty closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Wow Flowers is freaking terrible. For the second straight night, he strikes out vs the closer and isn't even close. Hopefully he's long gone after this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 For those that aren't watching, Danks just got picked off at 2nd to end the game. If this game doesn't get changes to be made, nothing will. Jordan Danks is a truly awful baseball player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move Alexei from the 2nd spot (where even Ventura has questioned if it's had a big impact on Alexei's power). The only time there's been a change in the last month or so was when De Aza had a tummy ache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this game doesn't get changes to be made, nothing will. Jordan Danks is a truly awful baseball player. I saw iit through gameday. It came u[\p pickoff attempt at2B and stayed there for awhile. I thought to myself this can't be possible but it was. Terrible. I read that Wise was at AAA for a rehab assignment. The writer said that Wise had been playing awful this year and might be DFA when healthy and they would keep Danks. Who has been playing terrible? Can't be anyone worse than Jordan Danks.
