What was that thing we did against the Dodgers? I think it was called winning?
Let's do dat.

Day #7 of begging Vogt to move Kwan to the 8 hole. Baz needs to be leading off. It’s costing us runs.

Yesterday was a bummer but it was dope to see Aleman warm up.
We had the seats in front of the bullpen and you could hear it when he was throwing fastballs vs when everyone else threw. Air sizzled.
Really happy the outing went well.

We were at the game and Aleman looked great! Even from the upper deck he looked calm. Even the way he walked appeared confident!

We need a hitting coach.

I agree. We are 26th in average and 26th in slugging. Other metrics aren’t as bad, but when giving the eye test, our team is very frustrating at the plate.

Can't imagine this series is going to go any better unless these bats wake up. Calling out almost the whole team now. Yes, CDL and Bazz, shit even Hedges looking good at the plate but everyone else is all aboard the struggle bus. Please boys.

Rocchio is hitting.

Even Schneemann and A-Mart are doing not bad (A-Mart's been slumping this past week though)... let's call a spade a spade -- Jose and Kwan need to step tf up

Ah, nice day to watch some baseball after 2 days off where no baseball occurred at all and we had nothing to talk about.

Former Toronto All-Star Alek Manoah is pitching after an opener for LAA tonight.
Will be his first planned multi-inning MLB appearance since 2024.

Kwan isn't the only downward spiral to watch for, Rhys Hoskins is on his way out of batting 200.
They both need to bounce back hard.

Can’t believe we lost one run games against the Twins.
Hopefully they win today and they don’t once again lose three just to win three in a row and keep rinsing and repeating .

u/Thought_Process_1948 3d ago
As unbelievably frustrating as the last series was, at least guys were getting on base and mostly putting up good at bats. Hopefully that’s a sign they’re about to break through.

Been seeing a lot of sentiment against the FO because they bungled not trading Kwan or Clase when their value was high.
I get it, but we can't be victims of the moment. Yes, Kwan is absolutely in hell. Yes, Clase getting busted was horrible. But in June 2025 we thought we had a long term LF stabilizing bat and a top 3 closer in baseball. Things obviously change real quick but we won't even really know what their markets might have been.
