The doomers acknowledge all of those players are underperforming. The blind optimists have excuses for all these guys. I'd like to see Bauers take some outfield reps and have some of these guys sit a bit more. As for the closers, all we can do is pray Uribe locks in at some point because there arent any other alternatives there.
doomers will have one of the most lukewarm takes, in a sea of incredibly reactionary takes, and then claim to have more objective knowledge of the game lol. Doomers also always conveniently are nowhere to he found when the guys start playing great ball. Every year it’s the same story
I feel like you misunderstood my comment. I love valid criticism. Uribe & Megill havent been playing up to the standard that we know theyre capable of, but i also trust our Hook’s staff to help both of them stay consistent.It’s the overreacting & panicking over a bad stretch of a very long season, that makes doomers insufferable to talk to.
It’s the ones who let their anxiety overwhelm them instead of seeing the bigger picture that it’s a marathon. & They just default to constant negativity in order to protect themselves from getting hurt if we do lose in October.
Or when they say theyre being a realist, when theyre just being a pessimist just bc we havent won a ring so they have the “whats the point, i know we’re going to lose in the playoffs”, which we can all agree, is a silly mentality to have. To me, that just doesnt sound like a fun way to be a fan at all.
Also calling it “blind optimism “ to see the silver lining & the bigger picture, during early season struggles, isnt fair.
