A sweep could be in the cards.

Waive it to go to a winner, why not?

Personal life. He has a young family with another year on his contract, may not want to uproot that.

Well, if the veteran hitters (Crawford, Panik, Parra) start to hit at even league average, we could start to do some damage.

Posey is up to .765 OPS, and Longo is at .744. No longer horrible.

Gotta get Pablo some more ABs.

Pablo to 1st, Belt to LF, Parra out?

When Longoria wasn't doing anything offensively, I was quite okay with him platooning with Pablo. Not quite sure that should change yet but maybe Belt plays left field occasionally or maybe Pablo picks up the 2nd baseman's glove again (so Posey can play 3rd).

I'm ok with Pablo playing second, but I think the chances are greater of Panik coming around with the bat as opposed to Parra doing so.

Last I looked, we had a team OPS of .618. That is galactically pathetic. If we were at .718, still below average, we would probably be 14-10 and right in it, instead of 10-14. I still have hope for 2019, but the hitting has to come around.

Last I checked, our team OPS is good for 30th in MLB.

Hats off to Poo Dramapantz for six SOLID innings today.

Fully approved game.

Man, this bullpen is a treat to watch. Moronta, Gott both brilliant.

I wonder what the odds are that hits 20 HR?

 

[tzill]

PQS of 4. First DOM start in a while.

One more K it woulda been a 5.

He is on pace to hit 26 this season. If he can keep his OPS around .780 to .800 to the end of the season, I will gladly admit I was wrong about him. He could be my Holland.

I think there's very little chance he's going to OPS .780 He's never done it in his career. I think you're looking at .700 OPS .260 AVG 15 HR 15 SB and about 3.0 WAR. In other words, a $18M player. I'm looking at YOU Poopturdjia.

All of you sorry sacks are welcome.
