We should have went with Crim and a closer for the same money, or maybe even for less money.
Absolutely Crim would definitely be doing better than Pederson.
Think you eluded some time ago that the money for Pederson would have been better served for a closer.
You were spot on.

Yeah, I remember at least Duane and I, and probably others, wrote that we would have rather signed a closer than to have signed Pederson.

Failure to do more damage in the 1st is hurting us now.
2 years ago would have felt better about the offense coming back.
It’s tough when you 2 guys in this lineup batting in the low 100s and a third one who can’t even hit 100 without a RBI

They gave him a 2 year contract with a mutual option for a third year. It will be 15 months before they give up on him, I would think.

Yes, I wanted a closer instead. It amazes me that they keep throwing veterans out there that can’t produce. And will not give players like Crimm and Huff a chance.

Got to hold Bochy accountable for some of this madness.

I agree. Him and CY. Offense hasn’t gotten any better. Was bad this year and bad this year. Some of this needs to go on the hitting coach too.

Thete is no reason Pederson should be playing and Harris sitting. Give him a couple of days off and see what the rookie can do. They are going to sit Harris long enough for him to get rusty, and then when he goes 0 for 4, he will be benched for not hitting.

Agree. If the team was hitting you could carry him through his slump but they’re not so enough is enough. Bring up Crim.
We need Pederson to get a hang nail so we can DL him and then bring Crim up.

Newsflash to the TV guys and the media. Pederson and Burger are off to slow starts. Semien was off to a slow start 12 months ago. At this point, this is what Semien is, or at least fairly close to what he is.
