    would rather watch Pat Venditte than Yimi. Although I guess it can be kinda funny to see how far people can hit baseballs off Yimi

    It’s a damn miracle the Padres only got 2 runs off 11 hits from Ryu. That stat line is Dodger-esque.

    Glorified batting practice pitcher. The Old Yeller treatment for this dog.........please. Makes Baez look like Mariano Rivera in his prime.

    They should clear the bleachers when he pitches. Someone is going to get hurt.

    JT is God.

    Take note the rest of you overswinging piles of shit.

    Just wondering.......is Manny excused from running out balls in play (no homo). Loafing is a bad look.

    Also had to overcome a RF who plays like he doesn't give a fuck.

    Nicknames are something else that were better in days or yore.

    I'm just impressed that Yimi is even still around. Feels like 4 or 5 years ago when he looked very promising. Ages for a reliever

    Loafing is one thing I won't give Manny shit for. Both of his knees have been surgically repaired. He probably could bust it down the line without doing damage, maybe, but just knowing his background with the knee issues so early in his career, I'm cool on that situation. The injury to his right knee was particularly gruesome

    there is more than enough talent on this team
    even relievers
    time and time again he makes the wrong decision with them
    and he has skullfucked the confidence out of most of his pitchers
    sure they all 'love him' because he is a nice guy
    but being a nice guy is not a virtue
    it just makes people like you enough not to hate you
    but nobody will run through a wall for a nice guy
    you cant hate a nice guy
    but you cant love him either

    I'm kinda tired of "player's" coaches. It's just another way of saying he sucks as an actual game manager.

    I would really like to have a coach that thinks through the game and each situation. And if he has peoples skills, so much the better.

    Wouldn't mind Brad Ausmus. Former LAD, ivy league intelligence..never hurts to have a former catcher in there. Didn't have the best run with Detroit as manager, but that FO was trash and overloaded that roster with bad contracts trying to " go for it ". Mike Ilitch basically pulled an Al Davis over there before he died. Ausmus is special assistant to Moreno with the Halos now in their FO. Think he would embrace analytics as well

    Would be willing to give the guy a chance if Roberts screws it up. But I get the feeling the FO wants to keep the keys to the brains. Roberts maybe their perfect vessel....or vassal...probably both.
