    Maybe he likes hockey and thought I'm screening the goalie(catcher), maybe it'll get past him.

    Gotta ride your horses. Remember when people wanted to pull Springer two years ago? Just gotta ride what got you here.

    I know they don’t want to break his confidence, but he is providing negative value at this point.

    AJ not benching Yordan is the definition of insanity. He literllay has no chance right now.

    If this game comes down to an at bat with Yordon's spot up do we trust him?

    Alvarez reminds me of Keuchel with his attitudinal self-sabotage.

    They are going to break Alvarez, this man is getting traumatized...it's one thing to trust you players and believe they will get out of slumps when they have a body of work to back it up

    the way this is going he's playing scared and overthinking x 1000.

    That first strike down the middle of the plate that he didn't swing at would have been a HR with the old Alvarez. Now he only swings and balls that bounce on the ground.

    Hinch proved us wrong two years ago when he left Springer in even though he sucked in the ALCS.. but I just don't feel confident.
