Sitting Marsh 2 of 3 games.
Sitting Harper
Sitting Stott

Rojas playing all 3 games.

Rob Thomson is a fucking idiot.

I am ready for someone else. All that nonsense after the season that they need to play Marsh more against lefties and he sits the first 2 lefties.

Conceding the game and the sweep by the Braves.

Thomson is terrible.

[wrench248]

Didn’t take long for the Braves to get a lead….

Maybe next season Thomson will try and get the team ready for the start of the season.

Here’s to another slow start

[BelmontShore]

This team sure can be dumb, sometimes.

Swing out of the zone, bad decisions on the bases.

Ugh.

[awfulstack]

Topper stinks.

2 outs 1B open and he pitches to Duvall who owns lefties.

On deck was Harris who Ranger owns.

Criminal

[BelmontShore]

Every one wants to watch strikes go by, question the ump about it then swing for the fences down 2 strikes and miss wildly.

How about, maybe, protecting the plate and swinging opposite field, staying inside rather than the bat head flying.

[BelmontShore]

Big inning.

[BelmontShore]

Castellanos. Rally killer.

Seems like we’ve been saying this for the last 11 years. Different players,same dumb approach
