Cruz is putting on a clinic for how not to play SS.

4-3:( We gonna need some more runs. Inning should have been over with no damage.

Cruz is killing us. Anyone who thinks he is a Major League SS should have
their head examined, His 2 errors have led to 3 Houston runs

He has 3 errors. He got 2 on that one play when he ran into Reynolds who was camped under the ball and calling it and then threw wildly to the plate. That's the dumbest play I've seen in a long time. They need a shortstop.

Cruz has no baseball sense. They should sit down this offseason and tell him that shortstop is not is best position.

I would be more emphatic- YOU ARE NOT A SS

I wonder what the new players are thinking when they see Cruz playing like this. They probably knew he had defensive problems but had no idea he could be this bad.

Meanwhile, Joe misses a foul pop up.

I’ve been saying that for most of the season. He should be nowhere near a position that requires baseball-type decision making.
