Nick Madrigal played 54 of 162 games this year. Last year he played 29 of 60 games. That is 83 of 222. In 139 of 222 games in the last two seasons, he made no contact, had no power, gave no speed or defense to the team because he was not available to them. If the goal is to get on base, you have to be able to play to get on base.

Again, if Nick Madrigal could stay healthy, he'd still be here.

I took on a central committee member role for a Mayoral campaign I really believe in.

You accidentally hit on the problem.

We aren't the only ones who saw it...

Look, who you do on your own time is cool.
-
Paying him to hit 160 innings in any year is really dumb considering he has done it once in 7 years.
-
That'll help the defense and pitching.
-
Yet here you are. Funny how that works.
-
Or, we could just take care of the actual problem...

It was a fun season, no doubt. It just sucks to have such high expectations go unrealized.

Of course he is only worried about the hbp.He should have been. The high fastball was his only reliable pitch todayDon't get me excited like that.You're right. No players were overcoming this leadership.The guy who wouldn't have played anyway was going to save our season. Nice work.I forget, whose fault was the coasting?Man if you are defending Tony today, I am not the one who is dreaming. The man had one job. His team completely failed and shit the bed. That's on him. That is quite literally why they fired Ricky after last year. Believe it or not the manager IS responsible for how their team plays and performs.He didn't give his pitchers a chance with his awful defensive alignments and horrible usage patterns in the playoffs.Why did he want to return this time? Ego and unrealistic expectations of his own abilities.The entire world could see the holes in this team. That isn't an achievement. The problem is the holes HE could affect, he didn't.I hope people realize if anything, he'd promote TLR.Get off your trackphone and align our defense.LaRussa hasn't argued that hard since his last DUI.
