MarGo took offense at all the sports radio all stars bitching about not PHing Altuve yesterday
For the record, I'm anti situational PHing for the young guys that have a true chance at becoming MLB everyday players. As misguided as it may be, I lump Schafer into that group.
Would it change your mind if you were Millsie and you knew that Schreefer is hitting .125 against lefties?
I am not going to argue against it. Mills has to do what he can to keep his job. Just saying, schafer has less than 20 ABs against lefties
Not thrilled with JD not being allowed to play his way out of his slump.
I think that they're close to sending him down to OkC. He's been really lost lately and is pressing.
8 games, that was how long his slump lasted before he got pulled from the lineup. I could see moving him down in the order, but axed all together so fricken Buck could start. Yeah, Buck who hasn't done a damn thing as a starter. If it wasn't for Buck's at bats as a pinch hitter, he may have been let go at this point.
If they are going to move down people struggling offensively, there are more candidates than just Martinez. Those good at bats throughout the lineup early in the year are becoming a memory. Seeing a lot of at bats where they watch fastball strikes and swing at off-speed balls.
