Am dueling tweets with Adam Morris who is defending Magadan and Jones.

Please feel free to share.

I don't understand the obsession with the hitting instructor...he has shit talent to work with.

Martin, Fielder, Beltre, Odor, Choo, and Moreland are shit talent?

Fielder and Moreland have been hitting. Beltre is never good in April, and roogie is a 20 year old second year player.

Leonys is just frustrating as all get out as a player. He has streaks where you think he will be a .700 OPS player and then goes into hiding. I cannot blame Magadan for that shit.

I think it's ridiculous to wine about the hitting instructor when the team was hitting .209/.300/.325, 74 wRC+ at one point today. They were 7th in walks taken btw. Cannot blame him for everything.

That may all be true, but the talent isn't the problem.

Oh good. Feliz gets face Trout in his second inning of work starting on pitch 19.

 

[RevSader]

That may all be true, but the talent isn't the problem.

It's a huge part of the issue. The team as constructed should be better than a .209 average, but not gonna be much better than .260.

 

[RevSader]

Trout was not looking for 95. He was waaaaay late.

I would be thrilled to have our team hitting .260.

Nice to see Feliz dialing it up again.

 

[RevSader]

I should have said .240-.250. And I would too.

 

[RevSader]

Pujols can still hit. He's not done yet.

 

[romeo212000]

I should have said .240-.250. And I would too.

That's my point. Magadan can't even meet extremely mediocre expectations.

 

[romeo212000]

I swear to god if Freese homers I will fly to LA and go Tonya Harding on his knee caps.

 

[RevSader]

That's my point. Magadan can't even meet extremely mediocre expectations.

You need more than 5 players to hit .240. Don't let your frustration get the best of you.

 

[RevSader]

Aybar did a damn good job on that...

 

[romeo212000]

Anyone warming up?

 

[RevSader]

Making the 26 year old with broken arm throw 2 innings is a little worrisome to me.

When last time he threw almost 50...I know he's had rest, but damn.

I'd damn sure have someone warming up

Thanks for that call ump. They finally win!
