I get this take, in general, although it’s pretty silly to suggest the team philosophy is to close their eyes and swing. Assuming that was a bit of sarcasm due to frustrations about their offense, something you are not alone in. Many even predicted this at the beginning of the season. I still think the potential is there and not sure what the block is. We see glimpses then nothing. It’s been the source of most frustrations this year and the subject of many, many threads here.
What I don’t get about this take is posting this in this recap thread after yesterday’s victory. We won. It was a great game of baseball. While yes, I get that some still are disappointed that we won because the offense wasn’t more entertaining, but I saw a great game of baseball (what I was able to watch). Surprisingly good pitching from a group that has let us down frequently, but didn’t yesterday, and some great defense, also something that has let us down on occasion, but didn’t yesterday. Pitching and defense are fun to watch when it clicks, and it did yesterday. I don’t understand why that one game can’t be celebrated despite the fact that the team still has some glaring problems, I guess for you we can’t,
