Can’t believe how bad they were after coming off a series win in Toronto. They need to shut down Smith for a start or maybe 2 but that doesn’t address how pathetic they were with the bats. Slater and Taylor should not be in the starting lineup, they can be used for late inning defensive moves, bring up Baldwin. I keep hoping Robert will snap out of it but it looks like he’s a lost cause. Most of our offense comes from infield guys unless Benintendi is in the lineup, keep him in there against lefthanders, he’s better than Slater and Taylor, our outfielders were 1 for 10 last night with 5 Ks and all 3 are righty batters who were facing a lefthander. Why is Capra still in the starting lineup, even Rojas is better. I’m losing faith with Venable and his BS lineups.
