    This is what I don’t understand about Dusty/Management ….

    He’s been below average ALL season. There’s about a month and 5 days of baseball left. Do you really think Yuli is gonna magically turn it around and start slugging?

    Time to face reality.

    Not many fans posting on CF today, can't say I blame them.

    True. But they are automatic every series. Meyers is too.

    I would feel a little better if Scherzer and Degrom were the ones shutting us down this series. Instead we have Rudy Stein and the gang doing it.

    Lead off walk. Good opportunity.

    Abreu is striking out batters at a dominating rate of 12.84 per 9 innings.

    Until he shows otherwise, he needs to only come in medium to high leverage situations.

    See what the kid can do.
    If he looks good, we could have a spot for him in the pen during playoffs

    Those are the situations he’s been awful in.

    Its mental with him… the stuff is great. Doesn’t mean he won’t get there eventually, but it won’t necessarily be this season.
