    Everyone likes to gripe about Sano, but you know exactly what you've got with him. He take ridiculously poor AB's, strikes out a ton, leaves guys on base...and then every once in a while, he hits one or two rockets into the third deck. Ok. What is the story with Kep? He can't hit the broad side of a barn anymore. Looks completely lost at the plate. It's been that way for a couple years. Both of those guys are huge holes right now. Make things very tough at times. When we win, it's usually despite them, not because of them.

    Unfortunately, Duffey has proven several times that he's just not cut out to be a closer. Good set up guy, but not a closer. If we're going to possibly lose games late, I'd rather see someone that throws it 100 mph in there, than Duffey. Give Duran or Alcala a shot and see what happens. It's sure worth a try. Worst case is...we lose, just like we did with Duffey in there. I also agree...the at bats by Sano and Kirilloff yesterday were abysmal. It's very early, and no time to panic, but it's not too early to figure this stuff out. Last season was a perfect example.

    Lasorda's old quote is spot on. I'm paraphrasing, but basically he said...no matter how good they are, a team is going to lose a third of their games, and no matter how bad they are, a team is going to win a third of their games. It's the other third that makes the difference. Let's see where this team is after 50-60 games. It would have been nice if Buxton and/or Correa delivered with guys on base yesterday, but today's another day.

    I stand corrected...you're right. He did have TJ surgery back in 2016. I'm hoping he doesn't end up needing another one. When I saw that he had the UCL sprain last season, a possible TJ was the first thing I thought of. I hope he's fully recovered from the sprain now. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

    The more I think about this deal, the more I'm ok with it. I just hope Paddack's elbow doesn't come back to bite them on the backside. Hopefully, he doesn't end up with a TJ. Pagan isn't anything special, but then neither was Rooker.
