Luis Robert is too unreliable to be a star player in this league. Too fragile. Pisses me off. Here we are again in a HUGE spot, an incredibly important series….and yet again he’s MIA. Toughen up. Get stronger. Stop missing games god dammit. Your team needs you. Availability is important and he’s NEVER available. And whenever he’s day-to-day he ends up missing 2 weeks. Light headedness. Flu symptoms. Sore hand. Paper cuts. Get your ass out there and play. Stop costing us games because you’re made of glass.

AV with more pathetic defense

This roster has ZERO defensive capabilities. We’re so inept. Everyone is an unathletic DH. Especially in the OF. It’s embarrassing. Eloy and Vaughn can’t possibly be considered elite young players until they learn to play the field.

He's a first baseman they are forcing to play RF. It's not his fault. This org puts players in positions to fail.

Comeback kids...2 nights imagine row...when it looked bleak for a long tome...And 2nd night in a row Moncada turns hero for clutch GW RBIs...

Is the dark l cloud finally lifting on Mr. .200 who had trouble all sessn till recently?

Maybe Moncada can turn red hot and drive in lots of runs when it counts over the final wmonthvandxa half till playoffs?


The team startibgvtobBekieve?

You mean tgeycactualkycare gonna save TLR from embarrassment?

Well..beforexwe jump o the bandwagon let us see if they can not only beat Houston next 2 games but play even better...Howxabout some early big runs batted in instead of waiting for the last 2-3 innings to make comebacks?

I’m assuming by now you have all seen the video posted all over the inter webs with a fan shouting to TLR to make a change (put in pinch runner) he calls time and does it.
Looks real, hilarious if it is.

LOL of course it’s real. He’s sleeping on the job 1/2 the time and when he’s awake his brain works too slowly to react anyways.

Nice comeback win again! And Colas is killing it at Birmingham. Would they consider a call-up soon? Left handed power, plays right field...he checks boxes of extreme need on this team.

That’s interesting…

But for this season how bout let’s just get Robert back so that way by chain reaction we won’t have an inept glove in RF. And let’s get our lefty bats to wake the hell up(Grandal, Moncada, and Sheets).

Abreu hitting .339 in August 21 in 62 AB
...

BUT No HR in last 13GP

1 Double only in last 19GP.


So a #3or#4 meat of the order alleged RBI machine is now apparently just a singles hitter..

Maybe TLR should bat him lead-off?

Call up Colas...Call up Colas(they will in September...unless they are Stupid or if TKR does not use hom mich).

Abreu power outtage excused if he keeps hitting .339..but you cannot use a sibles hottervim 3rdvprc4thvspit in the batting order unless he also drives in runs as well...that is not the case.

Otherwise you are relying on lower batting order to drive in Abreu which seems wro no.

Thus if he is now ONLY a singles hitter with no power, logic dictates mo ing ho. Upto lead-off or 3nd batter up.
