Robert is his own thing but it did seem like every damn time we had 2 on with less than 2 outs you'd have the DP machine Vaughn at the dish.

damn nasty pitch on 3-2, good inning tho.

spent 5 very good years in sunset park and prospect heights. haven't been back since covid tho. Moved out to PNW in 2012 but still rep NYC forever. Wow! Let's go. Tauchmann's got a little gas left in the tank.

Robert's problem is that he can no longer consistently hit first pitch fastball hard. Everything else is downstream imo. I don't know if you can fix his swing at this point in season.

Vargas is the man. Might really be turning into a star.

what part of the city you in brother?

Not a shot in hell this gets played. It will probably be pouring all day in NYC with thick cloud cover. The sort of storm that sometimes feels "semi tropical" when you are in the city.

So this happens in OOTP quite often. You got some guy, he's like a 1 WAR player, but even the AI knows 1 WAR isn't worth much if anything prospect wise so you get rule 5 eligible types -- but I mean at that point you just wait a week and try again. I dunno, it's a really minor fringe move that even if you nail 20 times in a row hardly matters but you should always try and get a non rule 5 and non 40 man guy back when you are trading these 1 WAR types ,in vidya or real life. Now the Sox will probably be in a position to cut him later in the year (or add to 40) or he's just so bad nobody even wants him in the rule 5 and you've turned a decent backup into a career minor leaguer.

In a season you're going to lose 110 games having MiLB OF depth is critical.

Beni sucks we ain't getting anything for him. Can't blame him on Getz tho.

JFC.

bad teams find so many ways to lose.

how the f*** do you PH robert and he's not in cf? I'm so fucking tired of this s%*#.

that ball needs to be caught.

this guy is throwing meatballs by today's standards. make him pay.

Yea I think he's got like a 100 iso or something over that stretch. That's almost a full season of being awful.

that is an absolutely insane AB for someone of his talent.

what a bum.

Let's f*** around and win this game.

Yep. He need to watch Chase. It's a fine line and right now he's on teh wrong side of it.

I'll send my apology to the FO on Vargas. I hope they encourage more guys to get on the vitamins as well.

Ya tried

offense got its 2 runs, time to just call it a day i guess.

we're going to get blown out

I mean it was clearly a hit and run, which I can't stand with 2 strikes. but as i said, swing the bat regardless, jesus it was right there.
