I just hope he gets HBP or a BB because he isn't hitting much.
May seem like that given the teamwide slump but in his last 8 games 1 HR/.294 .294 .500 .794.

Guys hitting .230 to .240 without much power up and down your lineup is not a conducive to scoring.
It's not the players in the lineup, it's the construction of the lineup. All of them can't hit because of which spot they are batting in the order.
Because lineup construction doesn't matter. :roll: Managers have put producers in the 3-5 spots for a century. But what did those guys know?
6 of the top 7 RBI men in MLB bat 2nd for their teams. Those teams must all be stupid too.

I'm sure if we just flipped Walker and Herrera this team would be winning every game, no?

How do pitchers revolt? And when they sucked, how do hitters revolt?

Please, expound...I gotta hear this :lol:

This is why keep sending Liberatore out there makes sense.

If it is indeed a "rebuild" you have nothing to lose by seeing what he does with a full season.

No need to put him in the pen..after this failure as a starter mentally at this point in his career he won't excel there.

A trade would then be in order if the team deems it necessary.

Some team would try him in their rotation.

BJ's announcers are praising Scherzer's performance!!! Don't they realize he was pitching against a AAA team?

Tell me how the current lineup has done? 2-7? Great point.

This lineup has the best talent in MLB, it's just the lineup construction holding them back. Get with the program.

Several of our relievers have been revolting recently.

Other teams know it. They think it over while taking a walk, and it becomes obvious to them.
