The switch-hitter is now slashing .191/.287/.329 against righthanded pitching. Against southpaws, he's worse, slashing .091/.225/.091.
He is your version of Sean Rodriguez.

I just hope that maybe this year is the last year. He’s got the 6th most managerial experience in the majors. Makes the same mistakes as year one. Took over Larussa’s team and got two free years. And it’s been a steady decline since 2015.

When he goes into these prolonged slumps, we find out later that he needed a new prescription for his contacts despite saying his eyesight is fine.

I saw a stat on the broadcast that in the month of June Martinez and Ozuma are hitting .435. The rest of the team .180.

Fowler doesn't look any closer to being able to hit a ball than the first of the year. Bader leads the team in WAR and defensive runs saved. If you are really trying to win each game, Bader has to start. He falls off the cliff being exposed as a starter, then bench him. This isn't rocket science.

No different than saying the Cubs are getting more WAR out of any one of their cost controlled players. What's your point?

You're talking shit about Heyward's production when you're paying through the nose for less production than the Cardinals are getting from someone playing the same position making the league minimum, and you wonder what my point is? Idiot.

Heyturd blows. It's hilarious watching Cub fans jerk off to him being an average hitter this year.

How about this then, the Cardinals have a whopping 4 position players with a higher WAR than Heyward, the Cubs have 8.

Rather pay Heyward $23M for 1 WAR than Molina $20M for 0 or Fowler $16.5M for -1.3.

You would rather have Heyward who is a lower caliber player at a higher cost than Molina?

Dumb.

If you havent noticed, Molina has been declining for a while now and if you want to use Hamas' WAR statistic he is sitting right at replacement level.

I mean it must suck paying him $20M and Fowler $16.5M to give you less WAR the the Cubs get from their designated pinch hitter Tommy La Stella.

Like I said before the season even started Molina has been a below average hitter 2 out of the last 3 seasons and he's currently on pace to make that 3/4. He still had his defense going for him but it's starting to show decline as well with throwing out below league average runners in 2016 and so far in 2018, with his pitch framing putting him at +8 calls on the season which is good for 19th in the league with guys like Grandall sitting at #1 with +57.

Did you see their attitude after they barely held on against the Diamondbacks? No excitement or enthusiasm. They acted like they just survived a jungle expedition.

I am attending tomorrow's game.

I am a Pirates fan, I am just posting in here because I don't post in the Royals thread. That is a softball team.

But I am sure some Pirates players have checked out because of Hurdle if your players are checking out because of Matheny.

Hurdle would be an upgrade over Matheny.
