I have a hard time believing the .667 stat. Seems pretty ridiculous.

I know you won't try to refute anything I said. So I won't waste my time engaging with you any further.

Sure, they've gotten some down, but there have been a ton of failed attempts. Don't hit with runners in scoring position, and struggle to even get the ball out of the infield with a runner at 3rd and less than two outs.

It's all fundamental stuff. They manage to win because they have a couple of horses on the mound, and when the offense is on, they hit enough home runs to make up for the lack of situational hitting. When the ball isn't flying out, we are struggling to do anything.



I think there is some truth in the post you made. Some people cant handle the truth.

The frick? We’re probably as good as most anybody at that and likely better than most.

You seriously think it’s realistic for a team to go through a season and get the lead off batter out every inning of every game?

The biggest issue is curielo can't hit the ball he is in a slump

No, Lester, I watch every single game. And these things I mentioned have been a pattern all season long.

Then your frame of reference for what is good and bad is very very poor

lol. Always making things personal. We get it. You don’t like me. It’s ok. But bring something meaningful to your post instead of that.
