What are the odds of Shuck coming through here?

not good looking at that swing

Another awful AB by Shuck. He has no business being on this roster. Horrible decision by Ventura there, should have been Beckham.

Why no righty here? Allen's been brutal vs righties this year.

 

Soto?

When is the last time JB played in a game?

 

Would have much rather had Beckham up there. Let's give a guy who hasn't it since the 13th a chance in the most important at bat of the game.. Smart

Righties twice as good as lefties vs Allen this year, and all 3 righties that inning reached.

One-run loss. Why the f*ck was Jennings kept in so long. Argh.

Mr. amateur Ventura

No need to overreact, Shuck has performed for the team in his limited role, he just had a bad at bat.

If you don't believe in Petricka or Putnam, why are they even on the roster?

 

Just for mop up?

 

Does Ventura even look at the splits for Jennings?

 

You just can't give up 3 runs in that inning. As Farmer and DJ always say, runs scored by the opposition from the 7th inning on have a way of coming back to bite you in the end. That was especially the case tonight.

 

And Conor's got to be a bit more patient in that situation. The pressure's 100% on the pitcher. Same with Avi.

Tumbling back under .500

Team going to tread here all year.

Good point.

 

But it's the traditional textbook manager's response, LHB vs. RHP.

 

I agree, though, Beckham was likely to at least make contact (this season)...somewhere. Shuck doesn't get enough playing time to maintain any type of offensive rhythm. Gordon's had a lot more AB's this year. Plus, the colder weather. All those elements would argue for using Beckham.

He's just not a good fit as 4th outfielder. Need someone who can play CF and also hit LHP, in my opinion.

the winning streak already feels like a really long time ago...
