August 24, 20213 yr Alfart-O at 1B and batting sixth.... Really, can we please end this experiment? He can't hit for shit and he is taking playing time away from prospects that might actually be here next year and need the at-bats / experience...
August 25, 20213 yr Just now, Hotcorner said: is the 3b coach an idiot? we're like 20 games under .500, SEND EVERYONE seriously, wtf. this team is so goddamn stupid

August 25, 20213 yr we have a pretty good pitching organization generally so it's a high bar but Luzardo might be the worst starting pitcher we've used this season. good lord i hope that gets better.
August 25, 20213 yr People need to use a brain on what a good trade is or isn’t. We just passed on a stud bat for a broken down pitcher while having the best pitching depth in the majors. FO is backwards.
August 25, 20213 yr I know the thinking is maybe having him up with the big club is good because then he can work with their pitching coaches & all (sure I guess?), but see I don't actually want to WATCH him working with the Marlins pitching coaches.
August 25, 20213 yr All but one poster besides me, thought the trade was head scratching. I carefully had to express how it didn’t make sense fearing the pitch forks. One gent, even said 10/10 you make that trade, even if it doesn’t work.....What? 💩 Done ranting, sorry folks.
August 25, 20213 yr I mean I don't think I've ever had less confidence in a SP. We're getting to like Conley/Chen level stuff here. At least guys like Thompson and to a lesser extent, Poteet, Holloway and Neidert, have shown some semblance of competence. This guy is arguably the single worst SP currently in the majors with X amount of starts. It's really fucking frustrating to watch and be a fan of.
