Official Game Lineup - 3/30 - Bucs @ Marlins

[fjk090852-7]

Perhaps Bae studied at the Oneil Cruz School of Base Running.

I think Bae should be sent to Indy. I don’t know what he was doing by starting and stopping when he was on first base. Then he gets thrown out at third. This weekend series stunk!

FJK, there’s no clear reason to keep Bae at all, let alone send him to Indy. It’s best to get him out of the way to give opportunities to others. He’ll never, ever, be a contributor. He’s not a Major League Baseball player.

I like your idea about cutting him, but they will probably bring back Eureka Williams. We don’t need him.

Again I was switching back and forth today. Guys, it looks like
a long long year.

[Surgnbuck]

Starting pitching has given up 6 runs in 22.1 IP for an ERA of 2.42
Relief pitching has given up 7 runs in 14 IP for an ERA of 4.50 (the 2 runs in the extra inning game are unearned)

The bullpen was handed the lead in 3 of the 4 games, and the game was tied in the other game when the bullpen came in.

The biggest problem though is the 8-40 RISP number. That's a .200 average, if my calculations are correct. That's actually better than their overall batting average of .184! Can you believe that there are 5 teams with worse batting averages? Can you believe that three of them are Atlanta, Houston, and the Mets?

Ten teams are hitting below .200 in MLB!

I don’t understand. I thought Cherington had the perfect strategy of hoping all his players got better. How could that fail?

That would be like trading in a Yugo for another Yugo. Nope, guys like Bae and Williams only continue to promote the idea that the organization has no intention of trying to win. All of those kinds of players need to be jettisoned. Of course, that might not leave many players left.

The problem, Surge, is that Atlanta, Houston, and the Mets will all improve greatly on their batting averages as the season progresses. The Bucs, not so much.

Maybe a witch put a curse on all Pittsburgh sports.

Bucs better do something in TB before coming home. Aaron Judge may find the river a few times.

Maybe the owner will spring for some of those bowling pin bats the Yankees are using.
