4/16 - vs Cleveland - in which Dalbec finally gets a hit
- Thread starter mikeford
- Start date
Casas challenging Steve "Psycho" Lyons, circa 1985.
Edit - Doh, beaten to the punch by @Hyde Park Factor!
You would think after last season Cora would have really gone on a crusade to eliminate the "stupid". Apparently he's done nothing.
Obviously not, and I'm sure that Cora is talking with these guys about these mistakes, but it's not getting through. This has been 3 years of this shit. 2018 was a long time ago. As I said, I like Cora, but a new voice is needed.
Sorry, a runner who makes that kind of a blunder shouldn't be able to call for a review. Come on.
I agree. Even though he was lucky as hell with the terrible tag job.
Not sure that play is as easy as it looks but was his footwork wonky? It's always weird to throw behind a runner, maybe Casas wasn't ready. Which is also not great.
If that first base ump spent half as much time working on his game as he's obviously done developing his style, he'd be great.
Yeah, I'm pretty much here. Bush got replaced by Bailey and we've seen a dramatic uptick on the pitching front.
I think Cora's done well with the pitching changes, and I think the team has improved somewhat defensively (positioning, hitting the cutoff man, etc.)
But I have to wonder if gains on defense and hitting wouldn't happen under a different manager.
If they happened under Cora that would be fine. But I'd rather take a new approach than try to drastically reshape the roster to find players that click with Cora's program.
There hasn't been anyone over there to make us forget about Pedey anytime soon. Damn I miss that little guy.
