if we praise AA for his great moves it’s only fair to ding him for his bad ones and choosing eddie over joc and soler may be his worst thanks for the 2021 nlcs eddie but it’s time to go away
a) you have to ignore quick’s chicken little act b) we are seemingly incompetent against RHP for some reason. no idea what the splits are but feels like a good bit of the runs come when we feast on LHP
Really we just need our LHH to get going. Olson strikes out too much and Eddie and Harris have disappointed And if you hate Eddie, Hilliard is .050/.050/.100 in 20 PAs since 4/25. 11 K and no walks in those at-bats. They need to add another lefty bat
Morton can be frustrating but deserves a lot better than what the line up has delivered. Quick look at his stats, 3 of his loses he's given up 2 ER or less and the team has scored 1 run or less.
I could be misremembering, but I want to say Eddie has been a fairly good pinch hitter in the past. Give Pillar a few starts in left and see what happens. If it doesn’t work then you know you’re going to need a lefty bat at the deadline
Well that’s unexpected. Thought we were just hanging out with Culberson until he was ready to come up?
14-14 at home seems not great Bob. Was looking at league stats and the run differential for Texas and Tampa Bay compared to the rest of the league is insane to me. Texas +124 TB +119 Atl +55 LA +51
I was thinking the same yesterday but it’s likely better this way. Less pressure. His first home start could be next weekend vs the Nats which would also be as ideal as possible. Maybe vs the Mets? Not sure how they’ll shake out
Maybe one day all those idiots will stop booing Harper. Dude kills us and that has to be working in his favor
Strider better make the first inning runs stand up. This team is likely done scoring for at least the next six innings after this.
