Well Hays' line drive was the first hard hit ball I've seen this year hit near a fielder that wasn't turned into a web gem.

League has figured Hays out, hard in, soft away. Never liked his falling across plate style of hitting.

It's always good to have a pinch hitter w/ a .000 OPS, it confuses the other team.  Why would you have your worst hitter pinch hitting?

To make a small sample size larger?

I have a .000 OPS. I could have pinch hit too

In back-to-back games we've had Ryan McKenna and Roughned Odor batting 5th.

Over the last four games, Hays is 9 for 21 with two walks.  I’d say he’s among the least of our problems at the moment.

Either Hyde is trying to send a message to Elias or he’s the worst manager in the history of baseball.

No idea who the 3B coach is, but I'd love to hear him explain why he sent Trey Mancini home on a fly ball to short RF down by 4 runs in the 7th inning? He was out by 3 steps, not even a 50/50 play

He’s not a good manager.

It starts and ends with Mullins for me. He makes this offense go and, well, he and the offense are stuck in neutral.

Its more about having actual major league talent.

Mullins, Mancini, Hays, Mountcastle, Santander, Chirinos are all ML talent. They're just not hitting.
