Monty has settled down,  
section125 : 4/29/2021 2:49 pm : link
but he throws a lot of pitches. Not economical at all.

71 pitches through 5 innings is not that bad.

Yep. After game 1, I was starting to worry what the bullpen would be looking like about now. Happily (and surprisingly) in good shape!

The worst part about it is he still has 5 more years on his contract after this one so they are going to keep running him out there to try to get a return on their investment .

Would much rather have Tauchman play CF every day then Hicks at this point

Tauchman had 3 hits for SF last night.

WTF has happened to Torres  
NoGainDayne : 4/29/2021 2:57 pm : link
he looked like an HOF guy when he came up.
I can't believe Hicks has another 5 years on his contract.

What an absolutely terrible contract.

I know that ugh. I really dont understand trading Tauchman when Hicks, Gardner, and Frazier are all struggling although Frazier has shown some signs of snapping out of it recently
Fuck Trey Mancini

You guys know that Tauchman's an awful hitter, right?

I get that Hicks is horrendous right now and being angry about it, but I don't get pining for Tauchman.
Hicks is my guy

Same as the rest of them....their egos have gotten in the way of their baseball IQ. "Chicks Dig the Long Ball" mentality is killing him (and others). I wonder if they even TALK to their hitting coach, let alone listen to him.

playing time instead of playing once a week at most.Imagine if he had the same leash that that Hicks has. Can't possibly have done worse then Hicks but it's a moot point now

It was just a blown call - badly blown.

But he did call the last pitch a strike(even if it was a strike).
Judge looks at hittable strike two.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 4/29/2021 3:33 pm : link
Swings and misses at unhittable strike three.

It’s not see strike, hit strike. It’s wait for perfect pitch and occasionally put it in play.

I wish it was that good. That ball out of Fry's hand to Hinks was low and inside the minute he released it. It was never a strike and never looked like a strike.
