43 games in. 27% of all games. You have lost 11/14. 6-7 by 10+ runs. You have scored less than 3 runs in 8 of those 11 losses. You are still batting a .199 hitter leade off who continues to take horrible AB’s. Refuse to move him down in the lineup. You keep Bader on the bench because you need the offense? What offense?
This is turning into a Matheny “we have to trust our guys” team. We have better relievers in the minors but they are still not called up? Is that a Mo or trusting our guys issue? They need to do something different. Anything. Don’t just keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result. Last edited by BigRedChief; 05-16-2019 at 10:52 PM.. |

And Gomber is pitching great in AAA. Ponce is 3-1 with a 3.03 era yet no call up

Still the same batting order with Carp leading off. DH this weekend so at least we get to keep Martinez on the bench or in the batters box. That should improve the defense. |

mo has lost the right to ever buy FA relievers. He has no clue how to acquire bullpen help. Just stick to developing your own from failed starters looks like the best long term practice. Bullpens turn over every year.

The dude is hitting .167 for the season. 3 run home puts the game out of reach in the 2nd inning. Mikolas has been all over the plate, mainly in the middle of the plate. But no one up warming up until it’s 7-0. That was a BS “got to trust my guy” moment. He’s been wild all game. Get someone up and warm before it’s 7-0 FFS.
