Noesi deserves more of a chance than Danks. Noesi hasn't exactly been helped by Rodon.

And Rodon hasn't been helped by Ventura.

Nice job carrell

Farmer saying losing like this adds to the level of "hatefulness" as a player.

 

Except you have to fight back and do something about it.

This is absolutely partly on Robin. The fundamentals are a f***ing joke. This team just isn't very good.

Hatefulness? I don't get it. What's he talking about

Hatefulness towards what?

This teams has the fundamentals of a little league team. You can blame that partly on the players, but the coaching staff is god damn atrocious too.

While I still wouldn't do it nearly so soon, I would think the soonest you see a managerial change is at the end of the upcoming homestand. A long road trip where you miss days of games while locked up in your hotel and then have a bunch of guys get sick probably isn't the time you can make final conclusions about what's going on. And if you thought he had to go before then, you shouldn't have started the season with him.

Neither have any upside. Both are replacement level or worse.

I don't hate this team. I won't. They spend money and try, but now it's time to sack up and fire the manager. Bring in a legit guy. If all we were doing is not hitting then I may tend to let it play out more. But we're not. We can't hit, field or pitch. Committing error and playing poor defense is just terrible. No excuses.

It is unclear what Danks has to do to lose his rotation spot at this point. He is f***ing awful and has been for a long time.

Avi looks awesome at least. Hit almost all liners in this series.

Here we go again

All money driven IF he was being paid 3 or 4 mil he would of been gone long ago.

Edited by Soxfest

Should be three errors if you count LaRoche versus Santana and then Danks trying to force an out by throwing to the wrong base.

my boy Avi!

Avi is a beast so far, I only wish he could hit for more power

If Avi can start to square up on pitches on the inner part of the plate he will be a monster. He has great coverage but he can't hit anything inside for power.

Bases loaded no outs.

Retiring would help.

I don't know how many times or how long he has to put up pretty good numbers with iffy peripherals before we just decide that the kid can hit in spite of an approach that needs some work

Danks charged with two errors now.

Lets see how they mess this up.

Lol just heard the score. Must've been one crazy inning.

Alexei is by most accounts a real tough SOB but he never fails make a show of it when he gets hurt.
