  1. Rocco can only put out the RPs he's given......and, Colome got two routine ground balls. He did his job (not well, but it should have been well enough).
  2. Just watched the video.....those were routine ground balls. I'm not sure it is fair to say Colome blew the second lead.....
  3. I don't think this is a manager problem. He didn't suddenly forget how to manage. The bullpen isn't good. The hitters aren't hitting. I'm not sure what to do about the second problem, other than promote Kiriloff, who might be a legit MLB player. Cave and Garlick are backups. As for the bullpen, no quick fix is available. This is the staff this FO built. That's on them, not the manager.
  4. There are no guarantees, but you don't judge decisions based on guarantees. Too soon? This article is about first impressions, nothing more or less. I don't get why we are judging the SPs as 38 year olds and 5th starters, rather than if they are good compared to the alternatives. They might be, but neither of those things are relevant.
  5. Ya. It's so hard to know what the rookies can do given last year..... But I was still surprised.
  6. I'd like to see him penciled in as the guy that starts the 5th or 6th inning for each start that Happ and Shoemaker make.....and plan for him to go 2-3 innings each time. Until they give up on one of those starters......It seemed an odd decision to bring them both in, but they did.
  7. I've never understood ripping an athlete for getting hurt for our entertainment. I also can't imagine there is one soft professional athlete on the planet. These men and women work their butts off for years.....hopefully he heals soon.
  8. So, don't offer them? I'm not sure your point. Calling it uneducated is what, exactly, compared to a positive one? Other than insulting?
  9. They didn't score runs..... how is that in management?
  10. Mindless? I didn't like the pick at the time. He was older and one dimensional. I also didn't say it was an epic sized mistake. It's almost like nuance is not a thing, and only extreme outcomes are......
  11. Drafting a lot of corner OFers.... and none are ready? The mistake here was drafting Rooker in the first place.
  12. I have no issue with you having a different opinion..... just putting words in my mouth.
  13. 31 at bats tells you nothing. It is a tiny sample size. They should base it on all the data they have, not 31 practice at bats. Nothing that has happened so far, not injury related, should change any plans they came into spring training with.
  14. I have no idea why you are putting words in my mouth...... about if he was hitting well.
  15. If the FO is making decisions on 31 spring training at bats, they probably aren't doing it right........
  16. Ouch. Don't LOOK!
  17. You never mention that profit is climbing faster than pay..... as a fan, I'd rather the money go to players than owners. That's why this fan cares. I also want them, since they are humans and not cogs, to have more say in where they work and who their employer is. I know you don't agree, I'm merely answering your loaded,biased, question.
  18. Way too long still. Way too long. I agree with the idea above that we aim for mid 20s.....
  19. Want to bet which is worse per capita / per dollar? Or, just use credit and debit cards and no money....
  20. bitcoin is terrible for the environment, and we need to fix that.... Looks like February is correction month. Hope y'all have cash sitting around.....
