    this team just doesn't know how to relay signs once they're in scoring position

    you see it all the time with other teams when someone is on 2nd or the 1st base coach relaying signs where the catcher is set up and any telltale signs from the pitchers.

    this team doesn't do that.

    I know for a fact we can fire the hitting coach right now if we had the stones.

    Surely at some point someone will get a hit with a runner at 2B… maybe even something more than a single.

    Pathetic slugging. We’re singles merchants.

    Station to station, no fundamentals, no ability to get the big extra base hits with men on base. Did I mention station to station baseball?

    It would be one thing if we were hitting HRs at the same pace as the Yankees, but we're mediocre in that category. This team should be executing hit and runs to stay out of DPs, stealing bases, hitting to the right to move runners over, etc.

    Joe needs to start playing Urias more and Dubon a lot less.

    Angels have the 4th worst ERA in MLB at 4.76.

    Astros have scored 3 runs in 20 innings.

    Melton being our top prospect is alarming.

    This team just doesn't have any juice. Probably in the playoffs due to weak division but probably an early WC exit like last year. This team is mega boring at this point.
