3 pitches and a K for what has to be the worst catcher in baseball right now.

What was the record?

 

Don't know for sure . Sale is going for his 4th straight game of 20+ swing and misses. The last person that did that was Randy Johnson in 2002

3 pitches and a K for what has to be the worst catcher in baseball right now.

He may be the worst starting catcher in last 5 years.

Fixed it for you.

By my count that's 22 swing and misses

Can't believe I was worried about Sale a few weeks ago, he's been completely dominant lately. He deserves to be in the playoffs, can we please not suck at least one year he's with us?

Looks like Avi's good.

Annual reminder to not worry about a pitcher's ERA early in the year if the strikeouts and walks are good

It really sucks to be wasting all of Chris Sale's prime years like this

I wonder how much longer Hahn will be cool with Flowers & Sanchez in the starting lineup. With the amount of high-paid regulars struggling, we can't tolerate a complete lack of offensive production at the bottom of the order.

 

Flowers has clearly proven he's not an everyday catcher. Not sure if he'd be an improvement, but I'd give Kottaras a look in a part-time role. As for Sanchez, he's currently sitting on a .400 OPS. I don't care how good his defense is, he's a negative value player right now. I stand by claim that Micah Johnson should never have been sent down in the first place. But given that they clearly don't feel confident with his defense, simply split time at 2B between Beckham & Bonifacio (Gordon could play 3B against RHP).

That's why Hahn is correct to keep adding. Get a 3B & catcher and this team can be serious contenders.

Not sure why but, despite really good stats, Kottaras has barely played lately for Charlotte

Don't like going 120 pitches with Sale.

After that God awful Hawks loss, I'm glad I got some Chris Sale in my life.

I'm guessing they simply want Kevan Smith to get the bulk of the playing time, but Kotteras has been very good offensively in his limited playing time. And even as a pro, he's been productive with the bat. However, given his lack of opportunities, he must be a complete liability defensively. Still might be better than Flowers if he can hit enough though.

I LOVE YOU CHRIS SALE

"Lance McCullers is one of the best 24 year old right handers I've ever seen. Period!"

 

Jesus Hawk.

Not only does Flowers suck, but now he's trying to injure our fans. When will we finally rid ourselves of Tumbleweed.

ALERT!! BREAKING NEWS!

 

****Tyler Flowers' batting average is BELOW .200****

Chris Sale has got some f***in STONES.

 

Why hasn't Hawk told me this?

 

Damn, Flowers is f***in terrible.
