Burrows was good during spring training huh? Facing against real major league batters ain't so easy now is it, borrows?
I mean we hedged our rotational bets around the Pirates number 4 or 5 starter, Lance McCullers being good by some amazing grace, Javier not being what he has been since coming back, and an unproven Japanese pitcher. This is what our top brass thought would get it done?
I know the logic is that Allen’s defense helps the pitchers over Paredes but Ithink that is ****ing stupid.
To replace Dubon and save a few million even though Dubon is much better. Nick Allen is that bad. Release him…Joe….Dana and Miller.
I can't imagine how much it would suck to be a position player on this team, knowing that no matter what you do, you're going to lose because of how bad the pitching is. It has to be demoralizing. It would be hard for me not to be resentful.
Actually, this is what our top brass thought would still sell tickets. The decline is apparent and they had no thoughts of improving the roster to get us back into the playoffs. This is why they need to rebuild because they are quietly already doing so without saying it out loud.
