Oh boy

[JaysAllMighty]

Why the f*** are they sitting Belt?

[G-Snarls]

Why the f*** are they sitting Belt?

 

I'd guess a minor physical issue that we don't know about

 

I see they're DHing Springer today so maybe something minor with him too

 

Otherwise just planned days off?

[G-Snarls]

Wish I had any confidence in Manoah but sadly I fully expect to be heading in to the bottom of the 1st already down by 2-3 runs

 

Alek: Please change my mind today

Yeah most likely not something worth raging about. This team is big on load management of their players so there are going to be days from time to time where a big bat is on the bench to start the day. Belt is 35 and had knee surgery in the offseason so he's not going to play every day. With Springer having a DH day and Vlad at first that leaves no room for Belt unfortunately.

Why the f*** are they sitting Altuve?

Why do you try saying something smart when you're not

[Spanky99]

Why do you try saying something smart when you're not

 

Find a sense of humour, man... it was tongue in cheek, it's pretty obvious why Belt isn't in the lineup?

I think it's fair to say, when Manoah is pitching these are handicapped games for us and we just have to accept that. I like the idea of just assuming we start games down 2-0 when he throws. Maybe some days he'll surprise us then.

I'm trying to look at the bright side... at least he'll probably just walk Alvarez any time he faces him.

[JaysFan99]

Ugh. Soft contact and a bunt. Not a good start.

[Spanky99]

Well then...

[Spanky99]

Okay... this is Babip luck. I think...

[bones10]

how can someone so large throw so soft lol

[Floortom]

we're literally tanking games by starting Manoah at this point.

[The Cats Ass]

Hopefully it’s only 2 or 3

[Omar]

Are you guys seeing any movement on his four seam? Looks so flat to me.

You need to now find a witch and burn her at a stake, lol.

[Spanky99]

Manoah's in big trouble now.

 

Yeah he needs a minors stint, lol.

[bronson44]

This has to be his last start right?

[John_Havok]

Nice to see Alek being garbage again.

 

I’m not blaming him anymore after this start, from this point on its 100% on the front office and coaching staff for keeping him on the roster.

[Pinkfloid]

Wooooowwwww

[EdwinsParrot]

lmao maonah is toast

[The Cats Ass]

This has to be his last start right?

 

It has to be.

[JaysFan99]

Yeah they can’t keep giving Manoah starts

[bronson44]

gfy fattie

[Omar]

Leave him in there. No use using wasting other arms on this start.

[John_Havok]

This has to be his last start right?

 

It had to be his last start like 2 starts ago. It’s well past that point imo
