I was impressed that ump kid knew named if his favorite umpires.
Surprised though he thought check swings were reviewable.

Can ANYONE on this team run the bases or bunt??
That is pathetic Hampson!!!!!!!
Coaching??????
Coaching? You're kidding.

Hampson is a major leaguer and a grown (bleep) man with no pop.

He should be a bunting aficionado.
No I’m NOT kidding!
The biggest job for the Manager/Coaches is to PREPARE your players to execute.
That’s fundamentals and being mentally prepared.
This team has physical talent but they suck at base running, bunting, plate discipline, etc.
3/4 of CT could make out a lineup card.
We fundamentally suck.
Changes need to be made.
Coaches can work the players on fundamentals all day, everyday. It is ALWAYS up to the players to EXECUTE.

You're right, changes need to be made. This team need better players.
Not going to argue that they don’t need talent upgrades.
But are you seriously saying this team is well coached?
Marmol is useless once the game starts.
Not sold on Blake.
And my Wife could make a better 3B Coach than Pop who is an imbecile. LOL
I'm saying good players make coaching better than it might actually be: see Cards Joe Torre vs Yankees Joe Torre.

...you talking about the kid in the stands, 400 ft from HP, or the professional 3 feet behind HP...??
If you are watching the game you would not have to ask that. It is obvious, the tiny guy behind the catcher.

Don’t know if it was called from the dugout, but love that bunt there with Donovan. Cubs were fortunate to get the out at first.

Donovan is a fundamentally sound ballplayer.

Much stronger throw than I expected from Crow Armstrong. What do you guys think that guy weighs?

170 maybe?

No way that's possible with these coaches.
