I was just thinking: "if they can scrape out a late inning win, it'd be huge!"

Jinx ?

Usain Bolt wouldn't have been quick enough to get there if he was playing where Madrigal was

It's also odd to assume they'll even be playing in 2 weeks at this rate

I've thought about it but I didn't want to be the first guy to say it

They are hard to watch. This is the offense from the first 21 games. No situational hitting whatsoever. They look complacent since their big Twins series

I'm being somewhat sarcastic, but honestly at this point I'd almost rather he just walk up there and stare. He can't hit *anything.* 92 mph fastballs, 97 mph fastballs, 85 mph changeups, 80 mph sliders. He is downright awful

Didn't Beckham have a terrible 0fer when his career began?

Fine, DH anyone. That's my argument. I don't care, as long as it isn't Encarnacion. He's horrific. I'm not advocating Mazara to DH, I'm advocating anyone except the garbage bag

That's why I said the moronS, not moron. I think they are playing a role here, as you said. But, they can't exactly get rid of him now I suppose. If they are DH'ing him now over Engel and Dyson, they won't waive him. They had their chance to promote Vaughn. FWIW, I'm not advocating putting Mazara at DH, but if they're stuck on playing Mazara, I'd much rather him DH and stick a really good defender in RF.

What was the excuse for the last 8 weeks? It's only guaranteed because of the morons putting the lineup together. They could DH Mazara and put Dyson or Engel in RF. You don't HAVE to keep trotting out a .160 hitter in any circumstance.

YES ENCARNACION IS PLAYING AGAIN!!

Good god Did he know Quintana wasn't that good and Eloy was going to be 40+ HR a year too?

You mean not every hitter in the lineup can be awesome?!

If they're so obsessed with Mazara they could always DH him and put Engel or Dyson in RF

He should be the DH

For someone who isn't all that impressed with Grandal's OPS I'm shocked that you're sad that Todd Frazier was traded

Would McCann's sheer presence have gotten the Tigers into the playoffs and helped the Sox advance to the second round?

Yeah well sEvEnTy MiLlIoN

You're right, man. Grandal is complete shit. McCann is awesome Imagine if they hadn't signed Grandal. Then they'd most definitely not lose in the 1st round right?

It was his second. A few seconds prior he said they're getting bounced in the first round.. yet through all of his negativity this year, here he is! What a true fan!

Bye to McCann, bye to this season, everybody sucks. You're a real peach. Your act has gotten stale rather quickly

That's it. Throw the hottest hitter a 3-1 fastball when the guy on-deck is in a slump

Came here for the "shouldn't be hitting at all" joke yet 18 others beat me to it

Popular opinion: Encarnacion is a pile of shit
