I'm losing that saucy feeling.   I'm a big mouth idiot.

I don’t have opportunity to see games on TV, but they were on FS1 last night. Several things I think I saw: 

  1. Miranda hustling for a diving stop in the first that he turned into a double play. 
  2. Farmer looking focused when he jacked the homer. 
  3. Lewis hustling down the line when he had a chance to beat out a grounder to first, where the pitcher made a nice play. 
  4. Guys making poor choices on pitches to swing at, but generally erring on being overaggressive rather than cautious with their swings (including Miranda when he was the tying run in the fourth).
  5. Henriquez looking good for five batters before the wheels came off for a few batters, but settling after the mound visit. His body language after the homer seemed very much of, “Dangit, I let people down.” 
  6. Tonkin looking good for two innings.
  7. Unless I’m forgetting something, no real defensive or baserunning miscues.  

For those who were able to (or chose to) actually watch last night (not just read the game report), was I reading things/body language right? I ask because the actual look of last night’s team felt different to me than the way things sounded on the radio the last week.

They're showing clips of an interview with Rocco, and he's got several bottles of booze on the shelf behind him. Can't say I blame him the way things are going this month. 😄

Just when I cut Julien some slack 

He certainly isn't very smooth out there.

Julien shouldn't see the field again this season. And if Rocco plays him, he's worse than I thought.

Julien has really struggled this year, no question. However, I never see this response towards Lewis who is even worse defensively. Maybe patience or ay least empathy.

It's a pennant year race. Not spring training. Patience and empathy? Nope. Accountability. He needs to be held accountable. Send him down when Correa is back.
