Called it. What an absolute waste.

Rangers are going to lose and those stranded runners will come back to bite us in the arse. It's all so predictable. If only our manager had the ability to see the same things we do.....

Yea I thought for sure they’d avoid Walker against these power RH arms and we’d see Wade at 1st.

The shittiest thing about this team is that they do just enough to give themselves 5-6 legit scoring opportunities a game only to just shite down their legs damn near every time for the last 2-3 weeks.

I know this team has been good at scoring with 2 outs all year, but their RISP avg in September has to be sub .150

And you say this b/c Diaz had so many big playoff hits and/or called games behind the plate?

All he said about it was, you’ll thank me later

There’s a 100% chance we’ll never know, but Diaz ain’t winning any WS games behind the plate

One of the reasons we’ll never know is because he started a catcher who was barely capable of sprinting and routinely whiffed catching balls for the entirety of a 7 game ALCS

After the number of times you called Dusty an ape in here though it’s funny you are buying into his magical baseball voodoo

And the more I think about it, Diaz spends the whole season swinging at EVERYTHING, then comes up in a spot w bases loaded nobody out and gets a 3-1 FB in the zone and misses it. Followed by not only looking st a strike, but costing his team a challenge

Walker actually puts the ball in play and gets more shite from yall than Diaz. LOL

Yainer is hitting .311 with an .829 in the second half. He’s more than done his share to get a little grace as opposed to the Walker’s and Cam’s.

Both are frustrating but Yainer has delivered and done a great job the last few months.

I’m only giving him credit for predicting that he would be thanked about one thing

He wasn’t wrong about Diaz

And he did manage a good WS vs the Braves

Espada is also in the lesser primate category

I get aggravated with Yainer at times to be sure but Walker just consistently fails in that situation. Can’t even muster a deep flyball.

Season on the line, getting a break in another game.

Top of your lineup is getting a chance with no outs and runners on. Gotta be here

And can’t even finish the thought before a GIDP. Unbelievable

Yes, Diaz has improved at the plate. Amassing good production that somehow doesn’t translate

I swear I’ll take Vasquez when it matters

How about a crippling fine when you hit into a first pitch double play and rob Yordan of an AB.
