Yeah...I have no stat argument. He just has that good energy. Sometimes guys defy the analytics (Escobar). Isbel just seems to be a spark plug.

Shoutout to Mike Matheny for all the pointless mileage he put on the arms of Staumont, Brentz and Barlow.

Vinnie Pasquantino is showing that he is gonna be the best hitter on this team since Brett. Up to .900 OPS after tonight.

Top half of the lineup is acceptable, but the bottom half might not even be major league caliber.
Would it kill the owners to at least try to put a semi-competitive product on the field? Do they really expect fans to be patient with the 7,000th youth movement (comprised of mostly mediocre prospects), just to see the top players go elsewhere as soon as they make it? |

So after 12 games, what we know is this?:
1. Salvy is the GOAT and producing at a higher level than any of us though he would this late in his career 2. Melendez is good, not Salvy good, and struggling a bit right now but we believe he'll be fine 3. Pasquatino is going to be a stud 4. We aren't sure if Pratto died or if we'll ever see him again. In the meantime Reyes can bomb but strikes out a lot 5. Massey isn't ready for this yet but can still be serviceable down the road. And we know what we have in Nicky Lopez and let a computer figure out when and where to play them and everybody else 6. Dozier blows, but we've always known this 7. BWJ is a multi-generational talent 8. We can play Matt Duffy anywhere but he also can't really hit so computer 9. Still hope for Isbel, Olivares if the rest of your team is really good (which ours isn't), Nate Eaton not so much, Reyes gets the computer to tell us when he might have a good game, but still don't worry because Drew Waters. 10. Greinke is as good as he's ever been, and we're glad he's closing out his career here 11. Lyles is as good as advertised but when we are ready to compete we'll need better 12. Maybe this coaching staff can actually fix/ better support Singer, Bubic, Keller and Hernandez to succeed. And now hope again for Lacy and others in the minors. 13. We fixed Chapman 14. Old regime killed Barlow, Staumont and probably a couple others Did I miss anything? |
