So you’re saying you’re ok with Morales batting clean up? Or even having a roster spot on this team? Bring up Wade or Tauchman or ANYONE else. Good god. The man cannot hit, he cannot run, he cannot field. He literally serves NO PURPOSE on this team yet BaBoone keeps putting him out there. What’s that old saying about insanity???
Also, let’s look at Rothschild. Under him pitchers seem to flounder and he can’t seem to figure out why. It took Beltran to catch that our guy was tipping pitches, not the pitching coach. It took our AAA pitching coach to fix Green, and then within a few games back up here he started to struggle again. There’s a very simple common denominator as to why this team struggles against teams it should beat, and they reside in the dugout.
If we were losing to Houston it would make sense, but this isn’t Houston it’s Toronto. These are the games they have to win as they will be getting into the tougher part of their schedule shortly and are still not even close to 100%. You can’t afford to lose these games with the upcoming schedule getting tougher and the team likely to struggle against much better competition.
