  1. Pagan and Kepler should not be in this roster. At some point the manager has to use them...
  2. Who's trading for Cousins? I mean, I'd blow it up also, but if you squint you can see a legit team.
  3. Tampa doesn't trade their best players while in a pennant race. Come on.
  4. Kepler. Predictable. That's all I got. Nothing funny left about him for me
  5. I count three guys I want playing in this lineup, maybe 4. That's it. Seriously awful lineup options.
  6. For the love all life on earth, can the Kyle Garlick experiment please end?
  7. good points. I'm not sure most of that matters, but we can disagree on that. As you say, he does have control over those things, unlike the fact his supposed best players are playing at replacement level, give or take.
  8. That might, might, nibble at the edges.....but until Buxton and CC and Polanco hit and they FO ditches Kepler, that's not enough.
  9. Jeffers has the 9th most fWAR among all catchers in baseball.....so, I think you may be underselling him some....He should be playing more. He's hitting 45% better than the average MLB hitter (all of them, not catchers). Overall, I agree. No idea what anyone wants Rocco to do given the outcomes these hitters are producing right now.
  10. I mean, let's hope so, because it might be the only way the FO finally cuts Kepler free......one can hope, anyway.
  11. Rocco doesn't make the decision. That's the FO. At least let's criticize the right people here....
  12. ? Did I correct you? No idea....I was just commenting that I feel bad for the guy. Clearly a legit MLB player, if he can get healthy.
  13. Fair. I agree that not making outs is the number one ability of a hitter.
  14. Using the phrase nerds to describe the use of math is the opposite of anti intellectualism? Pravda!
  15. Detroit can't hit, and Miami couldn't when Rowson was there....maybe its the players.
  16. I liked the Buxton, Vazquez, and CC signings, and they've all be awful. Just, awful. Look, something is clearly wrong. First part of the fix is getting rid of Kepler. I have NO IDEA if Wallner is a good MLB player, but we know Kepler isn't. Second, Jeffers needs to play 2/3 of the time until he stops hitting. This FO couldn't build a pitching staff the last two years, now they can't hit. My concern is the lack of player development at the hitting positions. Jeffers is it (likely Lewis and AK, but even three players isn't enough after this much time). They seem unwilling to change their ways. They signed Gallo and kept Kepler and traded for Taylor for depth, and now REFUSE to use that depth with Kepler being terrible (again). They refuse to IL guys when they first get hurt, leading to no bench in multiple games. They love Garlick, even though they are HEAVILY RH overall.....I know, sorry, off topic some....
  17. This hasn't aged well at all.....I'm on the fire the FO bandwagon at this point. Jeffers is the only hitter / fielder drafted and developed in 6 years. That's it. Or even traded for, at this point. That's kind of astounding, even by accident you'd think you could luck into more than 1 hitter in 6 years.
  18. I think this is a reasonable take, that I just disagree with, which is cool with me.
  19. What would you do, realistically, with CC and Buxton.
