TA has always backed up his brash style with his play. But when he has a game or series of games like these the baseball fun police sure are quick to pounce.
Tweets like these make me wonder whose bidding Steve Stone is doing. It's not the first veiled shot across someone's bow, even for all the condescending he does at fans.
I fully expect something like this:
Anderson, SS
Leury 2B
Abreu, 1B
Grandal, C
Jimenez, DH
Sheets, RF
Pollock CF
Burger 3B
Haseley, LF
And they score 2 or less while VV looks like Keuchel his last start.
Actually, no, no it wouldn’t. Winning despite him is the common refrain. We would be praising McGuire or Burger for coming through, not the fermented fossil of TLR for pulling the right strings.
Wonder if Hahn told TLR to play certain guys and the nonsensical lineups were his response. Not trying to do too much tea leaf reading but it definitely feels like something is amiss behind the scenes.
