Burning Refsnyders bat only to replace him defensively with Robles- who has a higher OPS- is some sort of strategy.

We're one game past the mid-point of the season. They're still doing the same stupid moves.

This team's never winning a championship under Jerry Dipoto.

It's just mind-boggling, we've been posting here on this Forum for how many years now, and we've never seen anything like this. Even as critical as we were of guys like Hargrove, Servais, McClendon, Wedge, etc., it was nothing like what this management is doing, just making the same mistakes over and over and over.

Emerson's batting average is down to .206 after today. About a week ago, I pointed out that he had been getting a ton of fastballs and the league was probably about to adjust against him, which I think is what's starting to happen. We'll see how he handles it, if he gets back on track.

So Speier only threw one pitch and Dan didn't bring him back for the 7th? Can someone tell me what the fuck is the thought process there given that Hoppe is out there now getting lit up like he always does?
Can't vary from the written predetermined script.

This team is so uninspiring and boring to watch. 11 straight games with 3 runs or less scored.

Oh but all the geniuses on X absconded me for doubting his top 5 ranking just like I did with Kelenic.

They had their shot in Game 7 last year and blew it, and tomorrow not being promised there was no guarantee that this team would come out stronger and better. Nope. That might be the closest we get in our lifetimes.

Makes me more grateful that the Hawks didn't blow the Super Bowl.

Imagine if the NFL and the officials had stolen Super Bowl XL from us, and then we never got another one? I remember the car ride home from the Super Bowl party I was at after second and goal, and my wife says "they just won one last year babe, this'll be fine". I remember telling her we could win one next year, and I'll know that should have been three in a row. They could win the next two and I'll know that should have been four in a row. I'll NEVER recover. I was pretty much right, until last season. I think I'm finally over Second and Goal. Yeah, probably not! LOL

Manager Dan thinks he’s being clever. Same with giving Ref at bats. Worst manager in the league.
