    We’re definitely going to add a #3 pitcher. We have to. No way Luhnow doesn’t get it done. We also really really need Correa and Diaz to get healthy.

    Chirinos has the 2nd highest WAR for a catcher in all of Major League Baseball.

    J. McCann: 2.8
    Rob Chirinos: 2.7
    JT Realmuto: 2.6

    eta: but yes, he's been in a terrible offensive slump, he's also been getting the everliving **** beaten out of him behind the plate. I immediately thought about him when Cervelli quasi-retired last week.

    Would they be saying the same thing if JV was pitching for the Yankees? I don’t think so. They would be agreeing not saying he’s whining.

    Odor is easily the most punchable player in the league. Why he seems to play well against us is beyond me bc he’s a flat out terrible player.

    Putting Sneed in there is essentially Hinch waving the white flag.

    Why can't the ****ing Astros throw strikes to their 9 hitter with a .492 OPS?

    Sneed is absolute trash, but we knew that. Bullpen help is also needed.
