If he's not battling some sort of ailment then it's yet another prime example of why Oli is such a poor manager.

So are you the kind of fan who criticizes the team he has been following since childhood when they are struggling, and then quits watching and/or supporting the team? Evidently you must be like a lot of NFL fans I know - change their allegiance every other year or so to one of the teams on the uptick, abandoning their previous favorite.

Most of us on this forum are not satisfied with the current management situation, but that does not mean our love for the team ends.

What’s league average for slugging. And what is considered elite?

Ok so we are above average for the season, and just a tick below last 14 games. Not bad with the Staff going six daily.

Donovan is 18th in SLG% in the league. Next best on the team is Arenado with the 70th best SLG%.
I guess, but virtually every player trending the wrong direction. Need to turn it around. SP is good enough with a good offense. Bullpen needs help and offense needs to improve the trend.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑26 Apr 2025 12:58 pmOk so we are above average for the season, and just a tick below last 14 games.

Yea there is that trend, but again the pitching against us has been ridiculous.
