    And Dave puts in the defensive equivalent to Ed Yost.
    For you youngzters, he was known as The Walking Man.

    to be fair, his performance in SF gives him a lot of deserved wiggle room in my eyes. 1.2 shutout high leverage innings with the rest of our bullpen tired, only hours after arriving with the team?

    today sucked for him but also has 2 errors behind him

    we need upgrades over Uceta/Santana for sure though hopefully soon

    That is the difference between us. You present logic, I present irrational anger. Lol

    Darn. Pujols had two pitches to crush but well, he isn’t very good anymore. Darn. Game lost with a lame offense and bad defense, let’s go home and beat the Giants

    Padres/Astros this weekend. The logical thing would be to root for the cheaters but I’d root for them to lose to Satan. I’ll just ignore the scores of those games.

    Ball hit where the dirt and grass meet. Would have been a great play to pick that. 2020 Betts throws that slug out at the play. 2021 Mookie makes an off line throw like that.

    Got a point, but I thought the play had he caught it, gets the runner for sure.
    The one run wasn't the deciding factor however. I do think Jones deserved a better fate.
    The team overall, is only average fieding the ball, imo. Gonna be growing pains at ss and other positions with replacements at one position or another. But Corey doesn't get to the balls Lux does...no way.
    Pujols doesn't have the clutch hero in him much anymore, but what can you expect from a guy who got cut loose outright? At least he doesn't make what Bett$ is. I see big troubles with this guy offensively. .248 BA ?
    He is rendering himself a weak spot at ths top of the lineup. Not good.
    Disheartening to see a player with the degree of adulation he gets, be, at best right now, average.
