SilverBullet Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 "Shoulder strengthening" could be a fancy term for masturbation. And if it's not then I'm still gonna start using it anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know they were capable of scheduling hits. Maybe the major league lineup should try this tactic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez. Actually thinking that makes everything even worse because we can't blame the shit lineups on Donnie's bad decision making... it means a group of people with advanced statistics actually put this together and thought it was still the best way to do it, that's really upsetting when you think of it that way.

So Kim makes the lineups too. Damn she has her incompetent hands on everything despite some people constantly claiming she has no control over anything. More and more I think Kim is the biggest issue. Sherman being cheap is a big problem of course, but that's not going to change. A team can be cheap and not be this bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rookie movie on his part imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a real side note though - Soler batting leadoff for the first, 2 months? makes complete sense though now if she was directing the lineup construction since she herself also believed he was a "high obp%" machine - in her OWN words. 100% that explains why they ran him out there to leadoff for that crazy long start to the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 This whole of the front office dictating who is playing has been going on for maybe 3 weeks at this point and largely because Don wouldnt play who he was supposed to play to start with. The first 4 months of the season was ALL DON. Make no mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
