I said this earlier but if it was the front offices plan to give Springer lots of time at DH then they needed to bring a significantly better player than Tapia.So let me get this straight. Tapia and his shit D playing every single night giving one of the "regular" outfielders the night off is considered "load management"?
Chuckoyo (just in case you weren't aware) that means you actually have one full time outfielder (Tapia - who is by far your worst) and 3 part timers.
What a moron.
Or even just keeping Grichuk lol.I said this earlier but if it was the front offices plan to give Springer lots of time at DH then they needed to bring a significantly better player than Tapia.
Tapia for Grichuk was fine. Tapia for Grichuk then ruining everything that made him viable was not.I said this earlier but if it was the front offices plan to give Springer lots of time at DH then they needed to bring a significantly better player than Tapia.
Springer
Guerrero
Bichette
Hernandez
Jansen
Gurriel
Kirk
Chapman
Espinal
Really you could probably shuffle 5-9 in a bunch of different ways, but the top 4 should be in that order with almost no exceptions.
Anyone concerned that Alek seems very ordinary against lefties? They really hit him around.
Not really. .333 BAPIP with only 23% hard hit looks unlucky to me
Zimmer is slashing .429/.500/.857/1.357 in the last 10 days. He sucks but I'm just happy to see no Tapia
The good news - no Tapia.
The bad news....the lineup gets even worse with Zimmer.![]()
Broken bat almost hit Chapman. Wow
Chapman should have picked it up and thrown it back at Zimmer.
Like Clemens did to PiazzaOnly if he thought it was the ball (somehow)
Maybe the Jays could petition to have a 'reverse DH' and have their pitchers hit in place of Zimmer.Zimmer is at least fast and a good defender. That's more than you can say for Tapia.
