    Toro isn't anything amazing at the plate, but his fielding I can trust.

    When is Diaz coming back?

    No I don’t have time to look up stuff like that

    I know we are not the lock to make the playoffs that most think we are, and I know our depth is awful and playing guys like Robel so much isn’t helping us win

    But hey, maybe sitting your best players regularly is the key to winning it all, hope so

    He is not lying, he absolutely telling the truth as he already knows three guys will get rest but he is told who that'll be as it goes along.

    Sean Salisubury asked Click about the "rest" and Click said that's it's a call the trainers make as they're closest to how the players are feeling and they relay that to Baker. Click has said it multiple times on 790

    They had a 10 game span where they went 1-9 earlier this year but they were still on a 100 win pace as of a few games ago. This team wide slump is temporary.

    maybe our SP’s are regressing to the mean. Perhaps they were pitching above their abilities for 2 months.

    Ok, it’s not worth arguing about

    He said he feels like they need to rest though, Dusty said that

    I haven’t liked the hire from day one, and like it much less now. He has had plenty of teams with a lot of talent that never got the job done

    Just my opinion

    Yep, but I don’t see ANY other teams doing it to the extent that we do. We rest a starter in over half of our games, and our depth sucks (especially with Diaz and Alex out)

    All of them have been good for longer than two months

    They were all good last year too (or 2019 for some)
