I see why JD wants to add a bat, I just don't see why it's Chris Carter.

It looks like this team as well as the other WC contenders are going to stay fairly close for awhile. JD is going to have to make a tough decision.

We are simply not playing like a team chasing a playoff spot

Definitely a game you should win. Couldn't have been much more lopsided on paper. I would really like for Banister to take Odor out of the 5 hole. I've wanted him to all year. He's just not that good of a hitter.

I hate to call bullshit on JD, but the 2016 squad was extremely tight-knit and jelled well, and they got blown the fuck out in the ALDS.

JD not going to let anyone know what he is going to do.
Been saying that too. Not his style to broadcast his intentions. My guess is we will be better off buy/sell.

Heard today the Rangers have scored 10 runs in 10 games this season, but have scored 2 or less in 27. Yikes.

This feast or famine doesn't bode well for a winning season IMO. Among other things actually. ha

KC last series is a classic example

I could understand the lineup having some trouble in KC, the royals have decent pitching. The Orioles are the bottom of the barrel tho and getting shut down by them is unacceptable. If it continues to happen, JD needs to blow this thing up. We ain't going nowhere. Let's see how they play tonight. See if some guys still want to be here.

Don't agree. Did you not see Donaldson's post? We have scored 2 or less in 27 games. KC is no different. They have set a trend of not scoring runs. The fact that we lost against the O's bare this out.

"Totally" actually....We are a true: one trick pony.

And again, it just can't be construed as a positive in our long-term plan for winning IMO.

All it is.
