This team just isn't that good. TLR has basically led this team to a .500 record since the ASB last year. 

Exactly. These gamethreads should resemble the ones of 2019/2020 where we hope to see some good things but expect frustration. We all need to accept that this team is average. They aren't turning things around

Coming into today 

 

1-2 batters hitting .228

3-6 hitting .224

7-9 hitting .263

Cueto with the quick feet

They probably won't.  At least they're well rested!!

Anderson's legs will feel great in August when they're 8 games out!

So did Abreu, Grandal and Pollock get old? Moncada having a bad year? 

If that's the case, they're going to be worse than .500

Also, if this is what's happening it would be criminal to not trade Giolito, Lynn and Cueto(if he keeps it up) at the TDL.

I’m at the acceptance stage.  They are a .500 team that plays lackluster lackadaisical baseball until they prove otherwise.  The manager has proven he is A Ok with it too so no reason to expect anything to change.

They might be 6 games out after tonight. And it's not even June.

What matters is if the FO does the right thing and tears it down and does a retool in the offseason. 

At this point I just hope that Moncada, Vaughn and Eloy(when he comes back) get it going. I'm expecting nothing from the old guys.

You have to be fresh for the off-season.  I kinda wish Tony was my boss.  I would get paid for 40 hours a week only working 3 days. 

if only our hitters knew how to elevate the ball 

 

 

Is there another lineup in baseball, starting 7 0f 9 guys, with a BA under .220?

I think Tony walks away at the end of the season. 

That was awesome by Yoan!

Big Energy there. Can’t wait to watch him skip into second again in three weeks.

That is one way to get a double

holy shit yoan, that was nice

 

i realize you probably hurt yourself by running hard

Love the bunt double

Bunt double, thats the way to do it

Okay that was a helluva bunt by Yoan

surprised more players don't do that

Yoan bunt double!
