I understand the OL being decimated, I understand a freshman QB , I don’t understand continuing to go on fourth down with both of those things being as they are.
I like Lourdes’ energy but guys that hit .250 with 20 homers and average defense are not hard to find. Thomas has defensive ability that will play for a while and I believe he’ll continue to get better with the bat.
Remember the good old days, when you would drill their best player in ribs after throwing at your superstar like that? Especially a night after hitting Walker.
This whole series seems to be plagued by terrible balls and strikes calls. I’m all for expanding the zone but when it’s as inconsistent as it’s been it has to be frustrating. Surprised no one’s been tossed over it yet
I feel like Matt Moore(LHRP 2.30 ERA in 43 appearances) and Mike Clevinger (RHP 3.32 ERA in 18 starts) need to be claimed if they reach the DBacks. Clevinger has a mutual option for next year as well.
I get moving the runner but not if you’re gonna hit those two guys. I’d rather see Longoria face a righty than those two right now. But I would have preferred to see Thomas swing away the way he’s been playing lately.
