If we lose tonight, it is 100% on management for not making a trade for a bat or promoting Toro or Black … even Hiura … soon enough.
To keep Winker on the roster - especially when you don’t have enough confidence to play him against a RH starter - is unforgivable. It’s embarrassing to try & defend such poor decisions.
This team could be 20 games over .500 with an average offense, yet we are struggling to hold off Cincinnati - a young team with an excellent offense & equally bad pitching.
I hope we somehow win this game after failing to score in nearly 20 opportunities with runners in scoring position.
Frelick reminds me of a young Molitor … I love his energy & bat to ball skills. He needs help sooner than later! I thought for sure there would be a roster move or two for the offense before tonight’s game. Maybe it happens tomorrow.
