Abreu is just checked out.

We couldn't trade these mofos for anything decent in return

Give up the lead and the offense goes down on 8 pitches. This team is broken on multiple fronts.

Plenty of room on the bandwagon I've been driving for several years, my friend.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

That's the conundrum, they're hitting well up to the point that it matters, then they suck

Top 3 in avg and like 15th in RBIs

If the Mets keep playing well, do you think they'd send back Gilbert and Clifford for JV at the trade deadline?

Are you saying his approach of forget how to hit as soon as runners get to 2nd and 3rd while watching middle middle or flailing at outside sliders doesn't work?

Yep. They're streaky as hell and can't manufacture a run when needed to save their lives.

But the statement of "no one hits" just isn't correct.

"No one hits when it matters" is the more appropriate statement

I'm opposed to the "swing at everything every pitch" approach on moral grounds. Every pitch deserves the chance to be called a ball. Why label a pitch as soon as its born? Let it mature a bit over 59 feet and decide on it's own.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

I'm not sure I'd say they're even hitting well. They're hitting tons of singles.

Six more offensive outs to show they've got a pulse.

At what point do they fire the manager? All the blames isn't his, but you're not going to cut players at this point.. except for maybe Abreu (1st base).

Making rookie pitchers look like Sandy Koufax. Just incredibly bad.

Hate to say it but I'm done. To be fair I've only really been halfway paying attention this year thus far anyway. This team is just the exact opposite of A&M baseball and it's way more fun to follow those guys.

I'd love to be proven wrong and will gladly come crawling back.

Bent over by the power trio of Crow-Armstrong, Assad, and Wesneki.

Your 2024 Houston Astros.

I'd say his seat is really damn hot. Like you said, it's not all on Joe, but as an owner, you can't really afford to do nothing.

Has a team ever fired the entire coaching staff, including the manager, during the first half of the season?

Is this Joey making a statement? Going with Martinez over Pressley or Hader in the 8th. Or did I miss something and one or both isn't available?

I think we're there. It has gotten bad enough, fast enough; they don't look prepared, the look disinterested and everyone is just having a poor season.

Crane & Brown need to acknowledge that they made a mistake by essentially retaining Dusty's staff.

They have made some good trades and some solid signings over the last few years. They traded away quite a few players in 2021.
