Sept 17 -- Suarez vs Cy Snell.

[Dunk35]

Im all in favor of trading Coby Mayo for a TOR SP, if possible. His value has to be plummeting with this atrocious showing though.

That was a bad call with this team.

I was wrong. Mayo absolutely isn't ready.

Nope. That's a few series. Go look at OAK, CWS, LAA, WAS, MIA, COL. That is significantly under .500

Oakland is 39-38 over that same time frame.

Mayo is terrible. Makes Holliday look like an all star. I know there aren’t many options, but they can’t keep playing him.

His value did not go up. Maybe get him with a some real hitting coaches and see what happens. This swing from the hip, upper cut, trying to pull everything crap is awful.

The fact that Mayo has made ZERO adjustments has me concerned. He constantly pulls off the ball and looks to be trying pull every pitch over the left field fence. He has zero chance of hitting offspeed or right hand breaking balls. 

What are the hitting coaches working with him on? Are they working with him?  

We have hitting coaches? When did that happen. They appear good at writing stuff down.

Get Eloy off this team.

How this guy was actually traded for and  is still on the team is a MAJOR red flag as far as Elias and his GM abilities.   I don't think he has the ability to draft players beyond the second round. 

Eloy is a black hole that sucks more of his teammates into his own black hole.  Fyi a black hole has so much gravity that even light cannot escape.

That is Eloy.

And that is not significantly OVER .500 either

If Skubal for Mayo was ever on the table in July and we turned that down... 

[spiritof66]

Mayo has truck out in 54% of his 41 ABs. If he's making any adjustments or doing anything different, I'm not seeing it.

It wasn't, otherwise he'd be on the team right now.

I just don't know who else would be better?

(and don't say Norby)

Just think, we could have had Blake Snell and be winning, if we were weren't so cheap.
