I'm about to turn score updates off. This team is frustrating.
Excited to go to the game Sunday. Hope we find our mojo by then

Why weren't the Rockies better with DJ, Arenado, Story, & Blackmon in the middle of their lineup?
Maybe put Tucker in Center
Maybe Tucker should be in CF.
LFG TED!
Blue Star. Catch of the year nomination right there.
What a great catch. Straw could learn a lesson there on tracking a ball and giving up your body to make a catch
Even when he's playing he's still taking heat. Can we please let it go for this game since he's not playing today?Aggie8587 said:

no, bc he sucks and shouldn't be on the rosterBeat40 said:Even when he's playing he's still taking heat. Can we please let it go for this game since he's not playing today?Aggie8587 said:

A ball very similar yesterday hit the ground. Glad we have someone taking over out there today.
I think Tucker to CF full time in 2022 might be the move. Corner outfielders are a lot easier to acquire. Especially because Brantley could play RF if he had to.

Plenty of blame to go around. Yall do know Maldy's OPS is lower than most guys BA.
TED is ice cold this last week.
Brantley had a mini-slump before be busted out
Correa has made more errors this year than last.
Etc.
How bad could Tucker really be in center? He's played there in the minors. He's a gold glove caliber rightfielder. He would be at least capable, I would think.
Whatever dropoff, if any, would be more than made up for by having three outfielders that could actually hit.

Man we are crushing it right to people.
106 mph off Tucker's bat. Bad luck there just hit it to the wrong spot.
Yall see the TED expected #s vs actual. They're ridiculous.
Across the league, the expected #s are higher (~20 points). I wonder if they need to revamp their metric.

Maldonado now 3 for his last 36
And he's getting 5 M from us next year.
****, Brantley is making a bid for CF
Someone told Brantley and Tucker 'Get to everything you can'.
I know you're kidding, but Brantley in center and Diaz in left would surely be an overall net positive when you consider the hitting.bearkatag15 said:

4 men on base so far today, 2 by walks... this is awful baseball.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
And the jeers will just get louder the more they suck.

This is some bad, bad baseball right now. I feel like we are watching the Tim Purpura Astros.
What sucks is most of these losses are not competitive games.
At this exact moment, Astros may be the worst team in baseball.
A little over 2 weeks ago, we swept the A's in a 4-game series out scoring them 35-9 to open the season. Today, the A's have won 10 in a row and sit in 1st place in the AL West. If the Astros lose today it'll be 9 of the last 10 and we'll sit in dead last in the division... BRUTAL

I'm not sure this BP could get any of us out.

If we all stood there and didn't swing the bat at all we'd probably get a run in. And have a higher OBP than Maldonado
Bring in Pressly
I'll say it again, "This team has no fire."
They aren't having fun. They are going through the motions. If they don't get their **** together, they may dig themselves too deep of a hole.

The Astros have 8 hits in their last 24 innings....the Rockies have 4 hits in this inning alone....I honestly don't think I've ever seen this kind of incompetence.
I wouldn't make grand pronouncements of failure in April during a very bad stretch...but if things don't take a dramatic turn by season's end, then I think Click needs to be escorted out along with Dusty. The decision to do as little as he did to address plugging pitching holes and the OF will be as questionable a decision as anything Pigpura ever did unless one of these guys is going to make him look like a genius in the next few weeks.

Are you ****ting me?
That Tucker fly out would have been out of 27 of 30 parks.
