Boy am I glad we saved some bullets for the bullpen tonight!

This is exactly why they should have played hard to win last night with a better option in the 8th

every one of Bateman's seeing eye singles it's like he's giving the finger to babip

Kind of scary if he is our starting cf next season.

That's not what I mean. Im saying he is an unproven commodity at the plate. He may actually turn into a league average bat (hopefully better) and his defense is sound but I want some slug (not a babip charmer) and he ain't that.

Kirks throwing has been pathetic this season man

I'd suggest you get used to it.  He doesn't throw well.  Never had, never will.

Wasn't it just last year he was gunning folks out?

This team would get swept anyway even if they make the wildcard. The offense is historically bad.

Most likely, yeah. Barely sneak in just to get ass-blasted by the Rangers/Astros

Oh boy - if only our manager had balls and our organization has people that knew baseball within it.  How sad.

This franchise has had only 3 seasons where they won a playoff series in the past 33 years so youre bang on lol. 

Sadly we let the best guy weve had get away to Atlanta :(

The front office really doesn’t believe in slug over avg. Its been pretty clear these last few years.

Bateman is exactly the type of player they covet.

Yeah i guess you're right.  But I hold out hope we acquire Buxton via trade this off season and win a championship.

He threw out 17 in 118 games last year.  He's thrown out 13 in 65 games this year.  So no.
