This is why I don’t buy the “it was still a good trade because we needed someone to eat up those innings” argument.
May has “eaten up” less than 32 innings for us.
We have relievers in our pen who aren’t that far behind that count since the end of July.
Your expectations must have been much higher than mine. I expected both him and Pratt to be defense first guys whose bats took a couple years to come around. Like Turang.
A .659 OPS was well within my expectations offensively,
Maybe, but I expect Lara to be starting in right most days or at least half.
I mean the entire offense has struggled today and did so in the 8th. They have 3 hits and 11 strikeouts.
