Damnit.

How do the Dodgers find the scrubs that turn into superstars with them?

Muncy, Chris Taylor, Justin Turner, etc.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I saw a stat this morning that Dansby has more defensive runs saved than Andrelton Simmons this year. I don't know how they calculate stuff like that, and while Dansby has been pretty damn good with the glove this year, I kinda find that hard to believe.

I dont like Snit taking Newk out in the middle of an inning.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Should have left Newk in IMO.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Snit brought in Moylan. That's pretty much waving the white flag.

Disgraceful pitching performance all the way around today.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I dont like Snit taking Newk out in the middle of an inning.

He had a quick hook with Sanchez last night too, knowing good and damn well that out bullpen has been used a lot lately.

And if you're gonna pull somebody in a close game, don't put in Peter Moylan.

 

[Chewbaccer]

We just need to cut Sam Freeman at this point. He's giving up at least one run every time he goes out there now.

How do you come in and walk a guy in 5 pitches with the bases loaded and 2 outs. Throwing strikes is a requirement to be a MLB pitcher.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Evan Phillips needs to be called up ASAP.

And it's not too early to trade for some pen help.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Fucking cowards too scared to swing the fucking bat.

This whole fucking team other than Freddie and Nick has lost its direction.

I don't remember the last time we had more than a 2 game winning streak.

I don't remember the last time we won a series on the road.

We have the Mets, Padres, Orioles and Reds coming up, but I doubt we'll take advantage. They seem to be content at playing around .500 ball here lately. They don't make adjustments. Snit still fucking sucks at managing the bullpen.

Slumps shouldn't last for a fucking month.

Freeman needs to fucking Go....Moylan has been ok but I still wouldnt bring him in with Runners on base.

Im hoping the Giants hold on today, that will keep us tied and then if we cant beat the Mets and Padres at home and then beat the BlueJays,Orioles, and Reds then we are truly pathetic.

 

[Mistaken4193]

You can go back to AAA Gohara, its obvious you arent ready yet.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Nothing but strikeouts and weak groundballs since the 4th inning. At least show some fucking pride.

 

[Mistaken4193]

2 hits for Ozzie ..hopefully this will get him going

Maybe they'll prove me wrong, but I've lost all confidence in this team.

 

[Chewbaccer]

And I love you Freddie, but we needed baserunners there and they had a big shift on. That's gotta be a bunt towards third base to keep the inning alive.

First basemen field more groundballs against this team than anyone else.

It's about as unproductive as you can be without striking out.

 

[Chewbaccer]

This team needs some fresh blood. What they have has gone stale.

Go ahead and trade for Moustakas. At least pretend like you're committed to giving this team the best chance to win. Kinda hard to believe that with Evan Phillips dominating in AAA while we're struggling with a 2 man bullpen with the big league club and we keep running out Matt Wisler/Max Fried/Lucas Sims/Luis Gohara types.

 

[Mistaken4193]

9-11 in the last 20 and 3 or 4 of those wins we pulled out of our ass in the 9th and had no business winning

 

[Chewbaccer]

At least the Nats lost, but I don't think it really matters. I think this team blew their load in April and early May.
