Let rua effing hit. No reason to pinch hit profar like that there.

These have been some incredibly annoying and frustrating games so far

Gallo has to hold the title for lowest return/crazy hype ratio. He is garbage, and its in his head now. We shouldve pawned him off on some sucker two years ago.

Odor had the best opportunity. He should have connected on that last pitch over the middle.

Banny getting too cute early in the season. Pulling jefress after 2 batters, pinch hitting profar after yesterday.

Just let them play.

Profar looks completely ****ing lost. Send him down or trade his ass. If you can get anything for him anymore

He was 2-4 with a monster HR and 2 RBI, and about an inch away from a double to make it 3-4... if you think he was the problem tonight I don't know what to tell you

Pretty much. The contact ability is just not sustainable. I have no confidence in him coming up to bat. If you're gonna pinch hit profar, may as well do it at that point. But then again that'd probably be an even bigger hit to his confidence.

Profar is worse than Gallo.

I don't get why he's legitimately in the LF conversation. Deshields and Rua are better options. Profar is basically just riding his WBC performance

Gallo is just one of those guys that's gonna hit .240 or so with 30 HR. That's who he'll be at the peak of his career

We're playing the best team in the AL at home

We've seen some really good ball, some bad ball, and it's definitely been frustrating

Let's not get swept tomorrow and then sweep the As

Exactly what I said. Could not believe Banny pulled him after walking a batter in which he got hosed twice on a"non-swing" strike out.

Just like last year Banister has no clue on how to manage the bullpen.

What a frustrating way to lose... walks are a killer! And then to have a chance in the bottom of the ninth with the tying run on second and NO outs and get nothing out of it... hopefully Hamels rights the ship tomorrow and we avoid our first 0-3 start since 2007

I guess we'll see who's right. Ive got 2 years of garbage to fall back on, youve got a few long home runs and a 2-4 tonight. Hope I'm wrong.

Rua and DD should be the only options. The only reason Profar is in there is because we're trying to keep him happy. His defense is mediocre and his bat sucks, and brings nothing on the basepaths.

IMO, Gallo has been a bright spot. Hitting for pretty good contact, and when he's strikes out, he's at least been semi-competitive.

Those numbers would be fine if he could add a high walk rate to them.

He has the same problem in every at bat. He has no situational awareness, he's up there to hit a homerun every time.

The stereotypical negatives certainly have appeared these first two games, haven't they?

Odor swings for the fences every time. Darvish is wild. The bullpen can't keep guys off base. Gallo pounds it or strikes out. Bannister keeps Lucroy on the bench.

I mean..that is a problem Odor has, and it's pretty well documented. He's still young and can learn.

Like in every area, a stereotype exists for a reason....

Strikingly familiar stereotypical issues.

They kept taking up Nap and Odor being close last night. Hopefully he rubs off on Rougie some more and he stops taking a homerun cut at everything and seeing some more pitches.

And while I'm disappointed in the runs given up early by Perez, I am glad that he settled down afterward and didnt continue to melt down for the most part. That was somewhat encouraging.

I think the most concerning issue is that we already know the back of the rotation is going to be shaky... So we may have all those stereotypical issues AND no back-end surprise like Griffin, Colby, etc... to get it back to the "aces".

We do still have Cashner and Ross to get back in. Hopefully they can be functional. At this point, I don't think there's anything to worry about with Yu. Just a bad night and hopefully Hamels is on point.

Yeah. I would take 6 innings a 3 runs from him every single time. I guess the frustrating part is the command issues really put how good he could be if he got those under control at the forefront.
