    If Alvarez has like 5 hits this series it's probably already done with.

    He keeps getting chances and does nothing with them.

    It’s on AJ for sticking with Yordan.

    2 run lead not enough. Hitters need to wake up

    Might have to sub Alvarez for Straw if we win this series and use Diaz at DH

    Just move him towards the plate and towards the pitcher. All the way. Yeah, he'll get fastballs blown by him, but his stance is surrendering the low inside and low outside pitches. He cannot physically hit those pitches where he stands the way he swings, so it's entirely up to his eye to lay off them.

    This is different. Springer wasn't a rookie. Springer has a body of work. You can trust him.

    Um no. Springer wasn’t even close to this bad. Not even close.

    Yeah, I believe in 2nd chances for young players---see Urquidy earlier---at a certain point, you have to cut your losses. He's hit some balls hard, but he just looks totally at sea these last few at bats. Out of rhythm, thinking, not anticipating. Diaz can't be worse.

    Springer was a vet who had been through playoff fire so I can understand Hinch sticking with him. Yordan is a deer in headlight rookie. He just doesn't look like he belongs right now.
