We are 2 games into the 7 game losing streak that I asked for.

Why would you lead off a hitter with a.113 avg? Leody should hit lower in the line up.

my channel is showing the Royals instead of the Rangers unfortunately.. so watching the Dodgers and Giants play.
Man, I’m all in favor of universal DH

Well Leody did his job, too bad the guys behind him couldn't
Unreal how many times we've seen this happen. We need some genuine hitters

Howard threw less than 40 pitches last time out. Hope he doesn’t have shoulder problems.

Bad pitch selection by Allard. 3 straight cutters to Ohtani in his last at bat. He must have been waiting on the first pitch guessing cutter here and got it. You won’t win many games giving up 3 run jacks.

You're right and you won't many games scoring 1 run.

I hope we draft the best available college bat in the first round.
Jacob Berry, Jace Jung or Daniel Susac

looking at past drafts it seems first round pitchers have like a 15% chance of being a productive major leaguer where as first round college bats seem to be like 60% odds of being good major leaguers.

It is really hard to pick who will be the best to draft this early. The best college bat for the 2021 draft was thought to be Jud Fabian a year ago. He wasn't picked until the second round and decided to go back to school.

Also, I would think pitchers picked in the top 4 would fare better than those picked in the first round overall. But, of course, there is #4 pick, Dillon Tate.

Well, you threw one position player in there too. There are many others to add in with Zach Cone. We have had lots of first round disappointments, with both pitchers and position players.
