We need more crowd noise now. Atmosphere at the Cell is very subdued

Especially when you go from the best manager ever (Ozzie) to fartknockers like Robin and Ricky

That’s not good. Fuck you Ricky. Robin Ventura was a better manager than you and he was the second worst manager in MLB history.

If Ozzie took this team over now, I bet he would win manager of the year.

Id suggest this team would be at least 5 or 6 games better in the standings if Ozzie was skipper. It’s a shame the best team in baseball is underperforming so badly.

Ozzie

Is there a manager we can trade for at the deadline?

Renteria looking like a genius for playing Mazara today!

Not a bad start. Wish we would have had runners on base for those dingers though

Cant we trade Nicky Delmonico for anything?

Don’t rush him back though. This season will never be completed so let’s make sure we don’t do long term harm to his arm to get him a start or two in 2020.

Why did anyone even have to be DFA? Didn’t Lail just replace Rodon?

If this season finishes (highly unlikely), pitching staffs across the league are going to be a MASH unit. The training camp was not sufficient for them and they are dropping like flys everyone. I still think Kopech was smarter than most by sitting out this debacle.

This is strike 2. If there’s a strike 3, it has to be it for the season. I think we are seeing sports can only exist in a bubble.

Arizona and Florida? You want to try and fix the COViD problem by putting all teams in two of the biggest hotspots? If that was MLBs plan, just cancel the season now.

Doesnt really matter what they do because there is no way this season finishes anyway.

If you’re a pitcher and looked at some of these lineups being sent out, would you be inspire to do well?

That’s really the season to build for at this time. The 2020 season will likely be cancelled within 2 weeks and they’ll likely be no season in 2021

If Ozzie was manager, we’d likely be 4-1 (at worst) instead of 1-4

I really think most people going through something like that would use the game as a distraction rather than sitting home and being sad. I think there was more to his decision than his pending divorce.

What a player is going to make this year is peanuts compared to what they can make over the course of a career. Dont jeopardize your career for a minimal paycheck

I cant believe there hasn't been a good number of opt outs today. If I was on a roster and saw what was happening today, I'd tell my team mates see you next season. I'm more impressed with Michael Kopech than ever that he was smarter than 98% of the players in the league before the season started.

I would not be shocked at all if years from now we find the average lifespans in this country 10-15 years less than they are today. The long term effects of the respiratory damage caused by this virus will cause a lot of people in their 60s to die who would have lived into heir 80s.

And than what if there’s an outbreak amongst the tax squad? Honestly, I’d say there’s a good chance of that happening since it’s a Florida team. Do they grab a high school team and dress them up in Marlins uniforms?

I still think you have major COViD violations on several teams within a month forcing an end to the season. I’m as excited as anyone to watch games but just don’t feel it’s wise to play baseball at all in 2020.
