I think, sometimes, you need to take in-game threads with a grain of salt. I made a comment that Braun was down to .280, and I suppose I'll be labeled a 'hand-wringer' over Braun's season when it was merely an observation. Point is, people get excited during the games and sometimes exaggerate situations to be much worse or much better than they are. I think K-Rod's crazy delivery adds to the perception that he doesn't have control of what he's doing out there. Obviously he does things differently than Kimbrel and Chapman, but he still gets great results. In the heat of a game (and in-game thread) people can get a little carried away. I get it, and don't know that I would call it bashing. Ditto for all the Braun posts in the in-game threads. I know which post you're referring to, and thought it a bit over-the-top, even for an in-game thread.
