Exactly. I say again…. How in the hell is this shitty team in 1st? I know the West is bad so that’s part of it but I’m amazed this team has as many wins as they do.

ETA- frick you Tucker. Will your vaginitis ever be cured?

I mean you have to consider it nothing short of a miracle of God that KKKKKKKKKabbage was able to draw that walk in the 7th and load the bases with 1 out. Bregman and Yordan absolutely shite all over God's miracle.

frick it. I'm a Ben Gamel Stan account now. If that mother fricker hits .210, he's an improvement over the shite bag outfielders we've played the last 2 months.

Not sure if for real, but seems like it would be.

Is that a fricking joke? The rest of the season?

That totally changes what we can do with our lineup

I have an idea if that's the case. Put Bregman at first base.

Yeah that’s obviously what they should do if he can’t play third the rest of the year

I still can’t believe they didn’t deal for any sort of bat knowing Tucker was out for the rest of the season

Here's a fun stat....

Kyle Tucker has been out for almost 3 months and still has a double digit lead for 2nd on the team in walks.

Of course Seattle gets swept. Really sucks that we couldn’t take advantage of a mediocre Red Sox team at home. Really needed to separate ourselves as much as we could with Baltimore, Philly and KC coming up back-to-back-to-back

They were throwing that around on 790 this morning. And/or him DHing when Yed plays LF like yesterday.

I’ve never been a big fan of Yed in LF but there’s no realistic chance of making any playoff noise with an OF of Meyers, Chas and whatever shitty SL OF is on the roster. I say that because I think you have to move Dubon to 3B. I know he’s just a rookie but Whitcomb has looked very shaky on defense. In essence this situation has us swapping out Singleton for Dubon.

The Tucker thing is just such a frustrating shitshow. It’s the key to this whole thing.

You get him back and you’ve got a playoff lineup of

Bregman 1B
Altuve 2B
Peña SS
Dubon 3B
Yed LF (I think once playoffs start he has to be there everyday. I’ll take a hit on defense if it means not having a SL player on offense)
Chas/Jake CF
Tucker RF
Diaz C/DH
Caratini DH/C

With his playoff performance last year and the risk of sucking arse when he comes back, I’d be surprised if he came back because he still wants/needs to get paid. He was playing at an MVP level before his injury and that’s the only leverage he has
