Anyone of the mentioned is better than TLR. Unquestionably, TLR is the worst manager in MLB today, and the laughingstock of the baseball world after being exposed in the Dodgers series.

Sousa is the Leury of our pitchers.

Girardi, Maddon gone, now TLR who has done a worse job, should follow out the door and join the trifecta..

Even if Trea hits a homer (very unlikely on a 1-2 count), it was only 2 runs. You walk him and Muncy hits a homer is 3 runs…..

How dare they question a HOF manager? What a jerk!

Sousa should not have been in this close game against the Dodgers middle of the line up in the first place.

And most fans too. We don’t hear much from TLR apologists anymore. It is hard to justify his insane moves nowadays.

The bottom of the 9 th proved that we need to keep games close. The Sousa 4 earned runs turned out to be the difference. TLR never goes all out to keep games close, not using our better resources.

Don’t forget the Sousa four earned runs.

Is Miguel Cairo alive? What does he do?

Batting averages with 2 strikes are substantially lower than in other counts.

Can we can JR?

You got a point.

Maybe we need to boycott attendance to the games if TLR is still around and put a hole in JR’s pocket.

It’s a pity. This was a winnable game. A turning point was walking Lux on a 3-2 breaking pitch in the dirt. You need to blow him away with a fast ball.

Because TLR is incompetent, and once he falls behind in the score, he doesn’t go all out to get back in the game, and brings in guys likeSousa with an ERA of over 8. I would think that TLR is one of the very fewest if any that would give an intentional walk to a guy with 2 strikes in the count. TLR has to be removed now. He is the laughingstock of MLB and has been exposed this week against the Dodgers.

What a difference a day makes. If Mendick would had been hitting lead off yesterday instead of Leury, or Leury hitting lead off today, things would have been different. Harrison’s run just now would not have happened with Leury leading off.

The trifecta of sucking big time.

Schwarber would have been a good LH power hitter fit. His OF defense is not great but not worse than Sheets.

Could it be that Hahn has turned out to be incompetent in building a lineup? Prioritizing Leury at the expense of getting a quality 2nd baseman and lefty outfielder, shifting most resources to relievers and fielding a lineup like yesterday with three guys hitting under .200. What is the reasoning to having so many relievers when we can’t get enough runs? Trading for Kimbrel last season and not a lefty position player, when we already had an all star closer was not a good deal.

Moncada was a former 2 nd baseman. Are you saying Moncada’s D is worse than Harrison and leury’s?

Mendick is a big upgrade over Leury nowadays. We took out Leury and Moncada that are hitting below the Mendoza line. Only 2 scrubs today in the lineup Grandal and Harrison. Lineup today much better than yesterday. We have a chance today. Yesterday we did not.

Sounds like a good plan.

Our power outage is worrisome. Our leading home run hitter is Abreu with 7. Burger is coming on , we need him in the lineup everyday.

He is ruining his legacy. Becoming a cartoon character. Should resign for his own good and the good of the team.
