I’m not crazy about the habit of outfielders nonchalantly catching fly balls with one hand, but Meyers looks nervous as shit every time he catches one.

Horrible appearance by Stanek. Out of the zone at 98 is still out of the zone. Throw strikes or you serve no real purpose. As for Meyers, I'd rather see Dubon out there when a play has to be made. 

He gave up one hit that everyone here thinks should have been an out and a walk that didn't score so I don't get the hate.

Nice work Machete.

 

Laureano helmet slam.

Kudos to Montero, of course, for executing the pitch, but Maldonado is fucking painting like Bob Ross back there behind the plate.

Statistically not so bad. I probably just have unrealistic hopes of a guy with that kind of arm reliably slamming the door.

Seattle cruising again.

We are playing like the shitty 4A team. 

 

Altuve is still winning this game with a walk off, but it's annoying.  We need to do some fielding drills or something.

Seattle cruising again.

They will have the third best record in the AL after today

I really don't get the dismissal of a talented team that has found itself with nearly half the season left.

We are more talented. 
we have a 9 game lead

there is only 70 to play

we play the weakest schedule in the league headed home.

This team needs 2 bats. Can't count on Alvarez to be healthy, and CF is a joke. It would be ok if Meyers was the worst offensive player in the lineup, but he's got competition from Gurriel and Maldonado.

Pitiful. We need bats. Outfield bat and/or first base bat. Yuli ain’t gonna be 2021 Yuli no matter how hard you wish it. Chaz, Siri and Meyers won’t win a World Series at the plate or field. Gotta fix one or the other. Click has a lot of work to do.

Ideas on the bats?

Willson Contreras (can replace Castro as backup C and DH when Yordan able to play LF)

Garrett Cooper (1B and LF)

Trey Mancini (1B and LF)

 

Interesting to see if Baltimore deals or not. Elias is a cold blooded numbers dork so not sure how much he will delude himself, but who knows with ownership how committed they are to the plan.

Meyers sucks
Matijevic sucks
Odo sucks

Happy all star break.

As much as it pains me to say, not sure Bregman shouldn't be on this list. He's been decent recently, but going into the break at .238 is bad. Not sure he's ever going to be right again.

I believe its a wrist injury sustained weeks ago that never improved.

He could very well have a broken hamate bone, and they are fucking around with his surgery. Just have the fucking surgery, get it done, get a bat, and bring him back healthy for the playoffs. My fear is that they rest Alvarez, he still needs surgery in August and is out for the playoffs, while they don't address the very real concerns with their lineup.

I'm not sure I would say Fiers was "MLB average level" but your point still remains. He was definitely able to eat some innings which is what we needed. 

For those two months, he absolutely stepped up.  He didn’t go full “Dumpster Fiers” until September after Keuchel came back and we had Verlander.  Mike Fiers and Brad Peacock absolutely saved the ‘17 season when LMJ and Keuchel went down hard mid-season.

He never was getting to the Stros unless the medical stuff wasn't right
