    Gunnar is in the lineup. 
     

    We were 10th in the league in OPS against lefties last year. 
     

    The nonsense that we can’t hit lefties is just that — nonsense. 
     

    We’ve looked bad early on but it’s a SSS. 

    You don’t have to believe me but it will be an issue with this team. When we’re playing Mcann, Mateo, Hays, and Urias instead of Ohearn, Cowser, Holliday, it’ll be a problem

    Soft-throwing lefties... ugh.  It just as well be Randy Johnson in his prime out there.   It is so frustrating to watch. 

    It’s not just soft throwing lefties though. They have struggled against every starting pitcher minus the first 2 games. And they will continue to struggle as long as they keep playing certain players

    They’ve had better records against LHP than RHP the last two years. 
     

    Im going to keep posting this until this nonsense se stops being spouted. 

    Our best hitters are lefties. Several of our better hitters are lefties. When we face lefties, those hitters don’t play. If you don’t understand this, I can’t help you

    Well then I dunno what to tell you if you find yourself wanting to see Kjerstad and Stowers and Cowser on the same roster.  

    I should also say that it goes without saying that I'd get rid of Tony Kemp, too.  

    Nah you’re right, I have no idea what Elias is going to do. I’m not even sure what I would do. But It’s way too early to just give up on Hays and Mullins but these young kids are putting serious pressure on both some players and front office.

    Service.  Time.

    That's it.  That's all that it is.  They want to be able to gain an extra year of control, trading a few weeks of the 2024 season for an extra year in 2030 or 2031 or whenever.

    It's all service time, that's all it is.  No way they'll ever cop to that, but that's all it is.

    And practically everyone here, ESPECIALLY the regular posters that have been here for years know it, too.  

    I'm confident that we'll see Holliday, Mayo, Kjerstad up in Baltimore at some point this summer.  Might not be next week, but it'll happen.  

    If I had my way, Hays would have been gone before ST started,  so would Mateo, and it'd break my heart but I think I'd have to get rid of Tony Taters, too.  I think Urias is a good guy to keep, but whatever, I get why people want him gone, too.

    But I digress.

    Service.  Time.  That's the front office's rationale behind not making any room for our logjam at AAA.

    It was a beautiful post until you said you’d get rid of Tony Taters. I think I’d get rid of about 23 guys on our roster before I’d consider Tony.
