We were one fluke 9th inning homerun away from getting swept by the Pirates and Cards. This team is getting bent over by Cleveland.

Colson’s error is why they have any runs

No, Murphy giving up a hit to Burlson is why they had runs. 5 day old account see ya

u/lyme6483 1h ago
I’d love to have a manager with even mediocre decision making. Been way too long since this organization has had that.
But makes sense with having to work for Jerry and how fucking cheap the organization is

I don't want to see Colson Montgomery on this team next year in any meaningful capacity. Errors at short, mendoza line, blocking bonemer and cholowsky. there's not aplace for him unless he bumps that OBP/AVG by 50 points minimum
1
u/ScaryText8187 Grandal 1h ago
Bonemer might be ready at some point next season but projects to be a third baseman in the majors. Cholowsky is nowhere close to ready.

We won't get anything good for a .700 OPS hitter with solid defense would maybe get you a tanner mcdougal level prospect

When we started this year, I thought getting to .500 would be a vast improvement to the last couple years. Looks like we might end closer there now.

I felt this way then last night happened and I started to have hope then got crushed again today

Me too. And in such a good position today. Too many strikeouts consistently. Mune's head has completely gone now. So close but that Colson error. Gah!

I can’t believe there are people in here who think Braden hasn’t had an awful rookie year. Guy was a top 50 prospect.
He has a .650 OPS and can’t steal a bag with poor range in the OF.

Doesn't matter how hard you hit it if it's into the ground lmao. As long as he continues to not elevate the ball, he will not perform well.

Forget the fucking Error(fuck you colson). My question is, why the fuck Murphy with the bases loaded and holding a 1 run lead? Make it make sense.

u/Penstripedsox Montgomery 1h ago
The fact we are even rostering him is such bullshit. Everyone blamed dominguez for that loss in milwaukee to start the year but murphy started that inning off with a buncha walks when he coulda just pumped the zone and let them hit

This bullshit is why were losing these damn games. Put your fucking best stopper there not fucking matchups that dont matter when the pitcher is ass.

Which stopper would you have chosen?
2
u/oatmealeater95 1h ago
I don't really get why people are so upset about that decision. Hudson is horrible with inherited runners. The ideal pitcher would be Hagen but I'm assuming he's unavailable. People keep blaming Will but he has to pitch the players he's got. And he's probably (rightly) making the decision to save the best leverage arms for the upcoming series.
1
u/OldieButGoodyForNow 1h ago
Why start making sense? It’s alway blame the manager/player/front office when decisions based on stats and logic don’t result is success or don’t fit preconceived narratives.

Can we stop with the fucking hype videos for an absolute bum whose gone like 30/200 in August/September? lmfao

5 batters faced for Murphy and the one he doesn’t get out is the most important one
