Let me guess, I'm a homer because I acknowledged that they were red hot at one point of this season.
Nothing better than people ignoring the fact that I've been blasting them, often, after trying hard to believe.

Ok, let me do this again: EVERYTHING SUCKS, CUT EVERY PLAYER, FIRE EVERYONE, THEY HAVE NO SHOT OF WINNING TODAY!!!

Better?
Let me explain it very slowly: I....DO....NOT.....THINK....THIS....TEAM.....WILL....MAKE....THE.....PLAYOFFS.

🥱 🥱 🥱
Don’t say that mannnn…. They will make the playoffs and thry gotta make some changes right now to make sure

Other than Cal and JP our lineup sucks. But that's probably gonna happen when you have a whole off season to address one of the worst offenses in baseball and all you do is add Solano, Tellez, and Mastrobuoni. Lol.

Side note, Moore has been one of our best hitters this season (2nd highest OPS behind only Cal), but has been getting less and less playing time lately. He now has fewer AB's than guys like Polanco and Tellez.

Rivas was one of our best hitters, and an on base machine, but for some reason they didn't want to play him and eventually sent him down. The guy was hitting .283 with a .411 OBP, both of which are the highest on the team.

So yeah, while the lineup obviously sucks, they're making things worse with some pretty head scratching decisions. "Hey, that guy's playing pretty well, let's not play him anymore". "Hey, that guy's been colder than the ice age for like 5 weeks, let's keep putting him in the 2 spot every day".
Don’t forget they added polonco too.

The 4 pitch walk to the guy hitting .120 is the go ahead run for the O's in the top of the 7th. Smh

Wilson just cost us this game. AGAIN. Pathetic managing. He is AWFUL. Pulls a pitcher who is in a zone. Next batter hits a triple. How many times do we have to see his HORRIBLE managing of the pitching staff????

Garver is the biggest P***Y. He doesn't swing with any authority. And that last AB there by Tellez was comically bad.

There was a 4 pitch walk to a guy hitting .120 before the triple. That walk was the go ahead run.

Why not go to Brash??? I stick to my opinion. Wilson sucks as a manager. He's in over his head.

I wasn't disagreeing with anything you said. I was merely pointing out that Vargas gave up a 4 pitch walk before he gave up the triple. You missed or skipped that in your post that I replied to.

Wilson probably thought Vargas could handle a guy hitting .120 and a guy hitting .190, and probably wanted to save Brash for the top of the lineup. I guess Wilson was wrong, but to be fair, Vargas very much should have been able to handle those guys, he just blew it.

Good thing Garver walked there & didn't actually have to swing the bat for an outcome
