Not even DH'ing Lewis with a day off tomorrow was waving the white flag.....Buxton is one of my favorite players to watch, but he's more brittle than my 95 year old grandma....missing three games for running into the fence is ridiculous. Rocco's pregame interview again today said he was unsure if Buxton would be available for today (he would have to hear from the trainers)....what happened to he was fine 2 games ago and it was just a scheduled day off??
To have Richards on this roster with Varland at AAA is disgusting. Before i get hammered, I'm not advocating for him to be a starter, but knock, knock....you're in a pennant race. You need to have your best arms on the roster. Richards ain't it. Ridiculous.
