Is the FO or manager or both incompetent? It’s May 10th…..the team is playing well, winning, and require an effort every game to put out a competitive lineup.
Pathetic

C. Bloom is going to have to take JAGesse away (AAA and then toss him into any deal he makes midseason) from Oli who just can't seem to stop himself from playing this slug. :x
Maybe oli is giving Saggese enough pt to prove he doesn't belong in StL. Until Nootbaar returns, Fermin should get the starts in LF against lhp.
It's proven!

410 PA
.235 .279 .313 .592

The Saggese lovers in here (along w/the Oli lovers) hate it that I've been calling him J.A.G. almost since his arrival but even they have to acknowledge that's who he is, J.A.G.
Not arguing that. Saggese has proven to be a utility player at best. Fermin should be getting the starts against lhp.
100% agree, Fermin needs to get the reps in LF when Church slides over to CF until Noot returns.

JAGesse isn't even a utility player, I hope we never see him again once Noot returns and he's (hopefully) demoted.
0 for his last 30, Rock. I would rather watch Gorman play against a lhp. At least he might run into a pitch. Saggese cant even make contact.
I agree i would have preferred scott in center church in left fermin at third neither scott or saggese can hit but at least you have good outfield defense or like you said just hit gorman ninth against the lefty and see if he can run into one or muscle a bloop in for a hit he’s started saggs three games in a row it’s just giving away outs at this point
I agree, Ozzie. I wish Scott could hit. That outfield defense is really good with Church, Scott, Walker on the field.

While we are talking about LF, Ryan Vilade started in LF last night and batted clean-up for the team with the best record in baseball (Tampa Bay). He is hitting .281 with a .777 OPS. Who knew?

JAGesse has no business being in MLB, I've been saying it for two seasons.

Over and over and over again yet I had a lot of guys in here almost every post trying to tell me he'd be a regular. :roll:
