Snake bit team at the moment. Just 1 win would turn this thing around. Must at least split with Texas.
Plus they made 3 trades to acquire guys for the playoff run. There is NO excuse of what is going on, but we saw this a looooong time ago, this team was playing average for a long time, and NOT WINNING ON THE ROAD. Some guys wanted to say we where all negative (we where only saying the obvious) and they ridicule us, but now who was correct????? Can we trust this team on the road? No. Why Hinch is playing Gattis so much? Why he continues to use a 20 year old kid in the third spot when he has struggled so much in the last 30 plus games???? Why not use Tukcer more????? Why not playing Lowrie vs lefties? He is only hitting .318 with an OPS of 1.116 against them. Why use Gattis in the 4th spot? Why not use VV or Feliz is close situations??? Why used Conger vs left handed pitching so much? Same with Marisnick??? (only hitting .197 vs them) Why did he used Carter in games in August and September? Well, I don't really think Hinch is a great manager, but, what the heck, lets see what happens in final 20 games, but things don't look good as 11 are on the road.
MOSES MALONE RIP, one of best players in the history of NBA. First player out of high school to play in the NBA.
LMAO, i am not making this out, i just saw this happening. Hinch plays Conger vs a left handed pitcher, .157 average and .595 OPS. Now he just pinch hit for him because the pitcher is a righty with Valbuena??? Conger is hitting .273 with an .897 OPS. The pinch hitter is Valbuena, who is hitting .227 vs righties. Wow, Hinch is awful. Now, the guy i've been asking where is Tucker just hit a homer. Don't worry, tomorrow we are going to see Tucker on the bench, and Gattis playing, that is HINCH FOR YOU.
