Maikel with the day off and Frazier batting leadoff. LFG for the series win!

I don't like this lineup at all.

So they'll probably score 9 runs today.

Yeah wtf. Prioritizing Frazier to get the most turns at the dish? :-)



Aside from BWJ and Salvy, our lineup is simply lackluster. Especially with a rest day for Maikel Garcia at the top.

I can't stand the fact that we sign absolute fucking turds during the off season that shouldn't be more than a bench bat/sub and they are starting and forcing the younger guys to stay in AAA. I'd rather Eaton or Loftin be up. Waters deserves a shot. There is no one worth a shit keeping them down.

I'm with you but there is absolutely no reason Renfroe and Frazier should have been this bad. Unlucky there

Im ready to just roll with Waters, Pratto and Loftin now though

I don't know, we are winning and why try and break up chemistry now for something else that isn't proven to be successful. When we lose 10 out of 12 maybe then we should panic.

The offense has been tough to watch but thank God our pitching has kept us in almost every game this year.

He's 32 and hasn't had a good year since 2021. He has a .639 OPS in 329 games since 2021. He's shit and has completely fallen off a cliff with his shitty .534 OPS.

There is no need for him on this team. We have guys in AAA that would do just as well, if not better than him for way less than the $4.5 mil we are paying him to shit the bed.

I really like basically 95% of what JJ has done, but he does the same shit as Dayton when it comes to signing shitty gritty vets that suck absolute ass.

No, Frazier being this bad is not even a little surprising. He's 32 and the previous 2 years before this he had a .648 OPS. This isn't even a little surprising. Renfroe is a little surprising, but he's 32 as well. Fangraphs has a study that shows hitters rapidly decline after age 30.
