Avi kissing the bat...

...I hate him.

Jacob Stallings BABIP is 56 points lower than last year and a HUNDRED points lower than 2020.  He’s going to have a better last 2 months.  

Making Fortes the main catcher for the last 2 months would already make Stallings better

our 3 & 4 hitters are shit...

I'd rather throw Bleday into the fire and bat him higher

... but Don likes to do stupid shit

I know he’s been brutal this year but are we seriously hating on Avi when he hits a piss rod that just happens to get caught?

I'm partially hating Avi for his lack of wanting to be here / lack of hitting and partially hating Don for batting him 4th with a POS OPS

Yep. I am 100%. Don't feel even slightly guilty about it either.

Stallings is absolutely terrible.

The reason why his BABIP is that much lower is because he doesn’t hit the ball hard.

He has an xBA of .200, which is not much better than his .190 batting average.

He hasn’t been unlucky, just a terrible hitter at this point.

JFC Trevor, you got a gift 2nd strike from the umps and you can't finish off the hitter

Without looking back I also believe that last season was literally his only full season of work so this may very well be him and not the other way around. He might have been more lucky last season.

Also, I don’t know, but maybe we can try Trevor Rogers out of the bullpen or something. He brings very little value as a starter when even his best starts last 5 innings. 

Who has been more disappointing? Soler or Rogers?

We just lost to Donovan Solano. Lol.

Problem is we don't really have enough starters available to replace another rotation spot. 

Goddamit Trevor

He needs a curveball or a sinker... everything stays flat

He’s had hits in 4 of his last 5 games.  
 

My point was mainly that he’s not as bad as April/May/June Stallings.  
 

a ONE HIUNDRED point difference in BABIP means something and you know it.

Rogers by far. I have never liked Soler and thought he was a waste of a signing and his season has been by and large pretty much what he has done his whole career so I don't know why anyone would be surprised. This is what he's getting paid to do. 

 

 

I can’t stand that piece of shit Solano

Feels like game over with this offense

One strike away from a 1-0 Marlins lead.

He is rapidly approaching Heath Bell as my least favorite Marlin of all time.

at least we have jj

bases loaded no outs last inning, no runs

leadoff double by JJ, will he score?

It’s hard to believe when you look at the records but the Reds easily have a better roster than we do at this point.
