The longer I'm a baseball fan the more impressed I am by what Gehrig and Ripken did.


Players used to play through these injuries.

With Yordan out, who is going to get our one run a game now?

Hypothetical, would you rather go 0-10 in the next 10, Dusty is canned, Joe Epsada takes us on a run and we go into the Wild Card playoff with him as our manager

Or 2nd, would you rather Diaz gets forced to play, hits .565 with 5 HR and 10 RBIS in the next 10 games, we go 6-4, but of course Dusty benched Diaz as soon as Yordan is back, and we are stuck with Dusty until seasons end?

Headed to the Hooks game tonight and of course Drew Gilbert isn't in the lineup. Dang the luck.

Option 1...I'm done with Dusty.

I think the yesterday of taking out Dubon who had 5 of our 9 hits the previous two games to go with Chas and Meyers was what did it for me, im done. Lasy year Dubon never played second base, this year Dusty will only play him at second base....makes a lot of sense. So do we think Dana Brown putting any pressure on him? Dana has to see the analytics that Dusty is ignoring.

Just once can we see a lineup of:

LF: Dubon
2nd: Altuve
DH: Yordan
CF: Tucker
3rd Bregman
SS Pena
C Diaz
1B Abreu


I think you would get more than one run with that.

Yes, I've been told this is the case.

Sure hope the Astros had a team meeting today prior to tonight's game. Maybe Brantley led the meeting and got into some underperforming guys

We pull the RF and move Tuck to Center?

Tucker is never going to play CF unless it's an emergency.

Yes, I've been told this is the case.

The bottom line is despite the underperformers and our frustrations, this roster is too talented to watch a victory lapping boomer who fell into a well-oiled machine last year mismanage them out of the playoffs. I hope the org will know when to say enough is enough.

He's not. My guess is the front office wants him getting as many at bats and develop as possible. So him being our 3rd doesn't make sense.

He also might be a trade piece

This. Lee gets to be the #2 catcher in AAA and get all the key reps. Salazar will continue barely playing.

So Cleveland is basically the worst hitting team in MLB. I know that's hard to believe having watched out offense for 2 plus months but the Indians are bad bad.

Which means I expect us to lose three games 2-1.

We are not worthy of Mauricio DuBonds.

Dusty will sit him tomorrow.

3 runs on 17 pitches including a BB. That's actually hard to do.
