I did enjoy those. It is the bemoaning and pessimism that is hard to take over and over. Could be just me though.
On the plus side, I am going drinking tonight (apropos of absolutely nothing).
I want Gordon in left when Buxton is back in center. let's see what happens. Send down Larnach to get consistent at bats.
sorry for the serious post, this thread has been a great throwback in terms of humor!
I mean, did people expect him to be hitting 148? If so, yikes. His reputation was as a hitter, not fielder. I keep thinking 250 with power....but, not yet, alas. SSS size, of course, but IN THAT SAMPLE, I'm surprised, yes.
While commenting about how dumb everyone was in the last episode of season 2 of Discovery last night, my wife said I was more Vulcan than every character on the show. My son messaged me that he warned me the season ending episodes were the weakest.....
I said this last year, and I'll say it again.
Rocco can only play the players he's given. And, they are less than 2 full weeks into the season. Should he really have given up on Duffey and not used him last night? What, exactly, would you have done other than that?
I too am surprised by the lack of piggybacking, but Archer's injury may have played a part in that.....Also, and I'll say this again, I'm 100% sure they have a plan for using the "starters" for the first month, and it isn't just Rocco making that plan.
