****. That was easy.... His draft will be a blessing.

I'm not gonna go that far. He's a good player and I'd love have him back. He just does not look like he's in this game. He's looked lost in the field and not even close at the plate.

Not sure what hurts us worse, hump in left or hump at the plate. I'm going with left. He cost us the game tonight

I'd sit him tomorrow. Move mangum to LF, put rooker in right, DH Kruger and let Elih catch.

I was thinking of the fly that scored the lone run. Most left fielders would have had that considering its hang time and location, yet hump was a step away. That, and the fly in the first. We should expect more from a left fielder imo.

If he catches that at best we're still at the plate striking out. I don't know when you think our hitting was ever going to plate a run tonight.

Let's put it this way, he does his job in left and we play extras and don't lose in regulation. I'm no soothe-sayer, but I suspect we eventually get out head out of our asses.

I agree with the one in the first. I don't disagree agree with other one, but it bounced at the track and I don't recall the hang time.

I just remember asking how did the runner score from first because it wasn't hit didn't stay in the air long. No matter, he wasn't looking good in the field.

Off the bat, I thought it was a fly out, hump has lower end speed and my gut tells me our other two outfielders would have recorded the out. Let's face it, his range is limited on the outfield. Time for hump in right. His plate appearances are another serious issue.
