    Clearly there’s more to playing the outfield than just being fast.

    King threw 40 pitches on Sundays and put him back on Tuesday. I know we are short, but effectiveness is diminished

    So, how soon do we trade Yordan for 2 players that don't pan out?

    never a doubt that the bullpen would blow this. This team consistently finds a way to lose in the most disappointing way. Blow it up.

    The walks are just ridiculous man. If they’re just getting shelled, whatever you’re just getting beat. Walking everyone and still getting shelled is crazy though

    That’s 19 baserunners in 8 innings.

    If you calculate in the "bad luck" our pitchers are going through I would't count out possibility that we have fired the guy who's job was def.positioning day by day batter by batter with diff.situations. Or the circus of randomly starting lineups is too much and Joe is just wiping his a*s with this data. What is sure is that he is too scared to say anything player does't wanna hear.

    Last year Framber got away with murder. Nothing was done because don't wanna upset him and season is lost. The result was Framber totally melting rest of the year. You remember that game last year Altuve coming to pinch hit when we were losing, we take the lead b4 he hits and is announced so Joe being too scared can't pull him back and puts him on defense too. We were all asking here what why, Altuve needed rest and should have not hit (on cold streak too) and gone for D when we are not losing anymore. It was just simple as Joe. Joe did't think we would score and seeing Altuve happily (as always, bless his heart) taking warm up swings could't say "hmm Tuve it's a no go now thanks buddy".

    I don't mind bad results if there would seem to be some process with Dana and Joe. Both seem so unprepared, I cringe everytime Dana opens his mouth and is doing his GM act or whatever he thinks GM should sound like. Giving bad takes left and right. First he could now take care of our 20m recruit and shut him up. The fkr is making us as org a joke again making million excuses like b*tch. Some of those ofcourse might be true but FO and manager should take care of them with the player and not let him near mics babbling like 7yo about stuff not being fair. He was the stud who wanted to beat the other Japanese stars, mullet and all. 5minutes and we have castrated him :(. Even the most soft spoken and kind pitchers have to create that killer Im gonna get ya vibe going to mound v majors batters. Now this cry baby is going there with diapers ready because we did let him whine about everything and also seem like we are amateurs for not taking care of him and also not doing any mental scouting b4 signing this absolute fk*n C*NT.

    I have had it with Joe for a long long time. He can't manage a game, bp or anyway fix or enforce anything and is bad communicator. But let's hire next time someone to do GM stuff who has some clue about what to do and not glorified scout. Grrrrrrr aaaaaargh!
