Nice range Sheets...fuck this team.  Every decision they’ve made is wrong

It’s the 8th inning and no defensive replacement for him….makes zero sense especially with the bottom of the order up

TLR has got to go after this series if they have any plan to salvage the season.

 

bringing in foster in this situation was absolutely fucking stupid.

Yeah, about that.......I've got some bad news...

0-6 vs the Twins 

I really hope the Tigers come in and put the nail in the coffin. Finishing 4th in the worst division in baseball is very fitting 

nail in the coffin? this team has been playing 6ft under for the last 3 months

So lets go over the last 2 years of "contention".

 

Year 1.  We sneak into the playoffs as the last overall seed.  This is based on playing your division pretty much only and beating up on bad teams.   Anytime we played anyone over 500 it didn't go well.  We decide that this is success and then go to the following year.

Year 2.  Our big move is trading Madrigal for Kimbrel because that fixed our 2b/RF problem.  We feast on a bad division and Minny being out of it.  We don't exactly do well against teams above 500.  We get into the playoffs and get exploited pretty quickly.  We have injuries to Eloy and keep trotting him out to LF.  Robert is out for a good amount of the season.  

Year 3.  We decide to load up on relievers.  We trade away Kimbrel for an often broken outfielder.  Minnesota is not bad this year like last year.  Both Minny and Clevland work over the sox in the division negating their only advantage to get to a playoff spot.  Good teams work the sox over just like before.  

Great rebuild strategy.  Hope the AL Central sucks and then maybe magic happens in the playoffs.
