    But yet he must stay in the lineup, at least Jake plays defense, Let Tucker DH.

    Conger is a major defensive liability.

    This team is so bad on the road. It really doesn't make sense, even if they are young.

    They concert with RISP, we have Gattis. That's the difference.

    Same **** every game. Pitcher goes on a roll after the other team has scored 3 or more runs and we're still at 0.

    I also don't like the shifts with middle of the order bats because they can take those away pitches and shoot them the other way. It has happened a ton recently, at least pitch to the shift of you are gonna do it.

    if they don't improve on the road, we are not going to make the playoffs, and the pity is we gave prospects trying to go to the playoffs.

    If we did not make the trades, i would not care if we make it or not and look at the season as major improvement, but with those 2 trades not making the playoffs that would be a major disappointment.

    Now, with the way this team is playing on the road, NO WAY WE MAKE IT.

    Blue Jays are winning like crazy, they are going to be there with the Yankees, KC and probably Angels, who gets the last WC spot? Rangers? Orioles? Astros?

    With our problems on the road, i don't think is going to be us.

    It doesn't help with the pathetic calling of balls and strikes but McHugh can't come out walking the first two batter.

    Valbuena has done a great job at 3b this year.

    Today McHugh in that first inning was McWalk

    His whip is very high this year, 1.317 and in that inning he had 3 men on base, McOuch

    Once again we can't hit with RISP. Embarrassing.
