I just don't understand how PCA is still on this heater. His peripherals are poopy and he has one of the worst chase rates in baseball. Sometimes it's just the way she goes.
Oh absolutely I don't think anyone looks at this team and say it screams a "contender". Here's hoping ownership doesn't handcuff what needs to be done for the sake of a wild card one and done. This draft is looking stacked in 2026 maybe we get lucky and win the lotto. With the elite lower level talent we have we could build a powerhouse very soon. I think it's ok to punt this year. Will Attanasio?
My friend he is the youngest player in baseball. It is a relatively new position to him at this level. This team is not set up to compete it's ok to have him learn on the fly out there. His reads in RF are way better I will say he is darn near elite as a defender there. It can translate if he puts in the work. It takes time and he hasn't seen much time in that position in the MLB. Lets give the kid some grace.
Checking in and saw Murph went to Nick Mears again. Ugh I really don't like Mears usage lately. It's borderline psychotic especially when he is one of our only reliable high leverage guys.
Joey Ortiz has a wRC+ of 24 and not providing the assumed elite elite defense we thought. I am open to throwing any type of spaghetti at the wall. Knowing full well it most likely won't change a thing. Think a trade has to be on the table at some point to be the solution.
The offense is in such a bad place, that I didn't even put up a fight when my wife wanted the new Mormon reality show (with the worst people known to mankind) on the big TV in the mancave. If that isn't a bad sign I don't know what is.
Hypothetically speaking what kind of minor league piece could we get back for Freddy given that he has 2 more years of control? Lawlar was always the dream but that might be a bit of a pipe dream.
