Tapia is getting the bloops tonight to make up for all the hard hit balls that have found gloves lately.

Oh s***, the broadcast team is normalizing Dexter Fowler with the fan base.

 

The SportsNet comment section about to start demanding that a guy who hasn't had even a remotely good season in 5 years come up and save the team.

 

He was decent in his last full season in '19... you never know, mate.

Honestly Heinemen looked good with the bat tonight…

 

Yeah, couldn't realistically expect anything more than he provided tonight.

103 wRC+ and 0.6 WAR in his age 33 season doesn't inspire any confidence in me that he'll have a good season at 36...

With decent pitching we had this game. It's still not over but it would be nice.

 

Yeah, Richards exploded out of nowhere. That's the worst outing from him that I can recall since he's been with the team.

100%. Saucedo might've done better lol. That says a lot. If Phelps gets us out without any damage I like our chances though honestly.

I think a lot of this game is going to hinge on Bo's next AB. If he manages to do ANYTHING productive, I think we've got a shot. If he just gives away another out swinging at pitches at his neck, I'm far less confident.

I mean as a bench piece, lol. Not a positional replacement.

Absolutely agree. Man I can't wait for Teo to come back. We need him soon.

I noticed that too. I just don't see room for the guy unless we get some more injuries but even then you have to wonder if Otto Lopez or Samad Taylor or others are better options.

I can't really think of worse options. At least Bradley Zimmer can play an excellent CF.

 

I'd take several guys from the minor league system over the mouldering corpse of Dexer Fowler.

Lukes or Taylor would be superior options if for some reason we needed yet another 5th OF... Lukes and Taylor can both theoretically cover CF, Fowler can't anymore.

Fair enough, when are we going to watch a game next, mate? I'm in on 4:20... :P
