Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Btw, just to add to the Jensen Lewis hate. Yesterday, during the pre-game, he commented on Trevor May's HR he surrendered, saying basically "Dude, you're up 0-2 in the count, stop throwing a breaking ball when you can throw 98 mph."

I wanted to reach through the TV and punch that smug idiot. Like, where does he get off telling other relievers how to do their job... especially when the take he has is stupid to begin with? Jensen, you were a shitty major league pitcher who never accomplished anything. You only played 4 years in the majors. You weren't talented, you weren't intelligent, and you weren't around long enough to have veteran insight to pass down to others.

I have no problem with commentators who don't have any credentials. They're definitely not required for the job and don't usually add anything. But if you're going to talk down to other professional athletes based on your credentials that you don't even have? That makes you an asshole.

I'd love for the fans to start getting on him in person. He's already shown he can't take it.

@CBBI

Jensen and Jhonny...
 
I think just about every player except Lindor got bashed on here, some deserving, some not. The team deserved to be bashed early on though, it was putrid baseball all around.

Guys like Naquin, Roberto, Bauers was wrote off the most a time or two, Roberto more so last season, but he proved more ABs equals consistency. Naquin is proving EVERYONE wrong. Don't even say you believed in this kind of play from him. His defense and offense has been stellar. Keep him down the order because if isn't broke, don't fix it.

I'm guilty of Bauers. I was pro-adding a proven hitter to mix in the lineup and take his spot.

I love this team though, the only guy that can go is Trevor. If we can get a young bat that is. Dodgers could be interested and they're loaded.
Do you think Verdugo could still be available if we went that route? He has been raking lately.
 
Bauer has to be one of the most homer prone guys in all of baseball.
 
This year Bauer seems like Oprah - "You get a home run and you get a home run and you get a home run. Everybody gets a home run!"
 
Home plate umpire just took all the foul line ball off of forearm.

Ouch. Can already see the welt.
