Not here
I cannot take an entire season of putrid middle infield defense. I just cannot.

Oh nice I don’t have to waste my Friday. Love it!

This team has cratered in one week. Absolutely dogshit roster building by the new GM.

I know CF is important, but if you have pitchers like Bello and Houck on the staff you really need to move him to SS.

They do know that there is now a draft lottery. Being the worst team in the majors doesn't guarantee the number one pick. They only seem to care about the draft and the farm these days.

When we have such tremendous output from our farm team it’s hard not to want more!

And we thought last years team was bad defensively. I know I am old and my memory might not be as good as it once was but I am having a hard time recalling a group of infielders this inept. Even when Dick ( Dr. Stangeglove) Stuart played the rest of the infield seemed pretty good.

It's not great, but it isnt by itself "a problem." Good pitchers give up baserunners. He proceeded to get two groundballs that should've been double plays. He did his job!

Feel like I'm going crazy.
The pitchers have to stop giving up groundballs with this freak show. I can't think of anything else. The entire infield stinks.

Just finished S2 myself. Alternating with DS9.
Yeah I rushed through those first three to get past the Kes-Neelix relationship. Jessica Lien is fine, but I've no idea how they didn't get that that relationship was fucking creepy. It's like Dan Schneider was secretly a producer.

I normally defend Cora, but when he gets stubborn about something it's very aggravating.

There are 4 guys that can play Center Field on this roster, and one guy that can play shortstop. Put Rafaela at Shortstop and stop F-ing around.

I really, really like so many players on this team. Casas, Devers, Duran, even Rafaela. The pitching has been fun up until the last couple days.

But I can't watch any more of David Hamilton at SS.

I just can't.

And if they lose me, I can only imagine how many just gave up before me.

I’m already kinda over them doing the little claw thing to their buddies in the dugout after every single basehit.

What’s that about?

I am so, so tired of watching this shitty play. I get having a team that isn’t good enough to win the World Series or make the postseason, but the level of play the last…2 seasons, getting on to 3…I’m so tired of it.

You know who could pick it? The Boomer, George Scott.

He'll get there. I think we're due for a bit of a reshuffle when Refsnyder and Grissom are back.

On the bright side we should be able to take advantage of Casas getting scared of being mediocre and taking a cheap deal!
