Agreed but there are bigger fish to fry

We don't play the Marlins and the Whalers are defunct

He is going opposite field so fucking much....its crazy

The whole team seems to be this way. Correa, Brantley, Reddick especially.
It’s like we’re trying to start a new trend...
.282 team average says its working

Keep winning series.  4 against Cleveland with no Verlander will be a good test

Meh. I get what your saying this isn’t the 2018 Indians and given the schedule, I’d actually rather have it set up exactly like it will... with Verlander pitching against one of the best offenses in the league (Twins), miss one of the worst (Indians), and be ready for a divisional opponent and best player in the game (Trout) (and possibly Ohtani) playing in another country

so a quick glance at the standings looks like 8 teams over .500 (7 not including us).

we've played 6 and are about to play the 7th this weekend.

our entire schedule thus far is over .500 as of this moment. 

and our upcoming schedule is the same until we play the angels in mexico in early may.

I normally trust you but had to pull up the standings myself considering we’ve played a couple of series against the team in north Texas.
12-11. I’ll de damned

But they would be under .500 if we played like we can against them.

Plus he is doing a "Legends Tour" for every homestand and wears a different players uniform to the stadium and throws their stats up on his instagram.  The other day it was Dierker.  Before that one I think was Keuchel.

Not sure if he is traveling with the team or just going to home games, though

Kind of hit and miss.  He goes to most home games and he said something like he will travel when his rehab/schedule allows.

The broadcast crew said during a game the other night that Hinch wants to give Springer and Brantley plenty of rest to keep them fresh.  Maybe they think it will help with Springer's slumps?

George has been DH 3 times in last 8 games. What's up with that?

I think it’s partly due to trying to give Kemp at-bats, but preferring him in the field over DH so that you can sub Marisnick defensively if the situation warrants it and not lose one of your really good bats. 

With that said, there must be a reason they are preferring Kemp in CF and Springer at DH to putting him in LF with Brantley DHing (which gets you to a similar end result), but I’m not sure what it is. Edit: post above offers a reasonable explanation for that. Springer’s defense does take a toll on his body.

gotta love having the current AL batting avg. leader in the 7 hole.

I don't wish injury on most players, but I would welcome someone blasting one off of Bauer's noggin.  I mean I don't want him killed or anything, but fuck that douche
