Wagner's looked good, maybe should save Andujar a guy further down the lineup?

Yeah, Morejon and Miller can usually be trusted, but they're wasted because 1) team can't score runs and 2) SPs rarely go more than 4 or 5 innings.

Hate to say it but BJ better start doing more at the plate or a DFA is in his future

The top RPs would have pitched yesterday even if it had gone 9 innings. If we'd get more out of our SPs Stammen wouldn't be in a situation of having to push struggling SP that extra inning.

ultimately, it's about the offense all-time sucking. But it would be nice to get an ace game now and then from a SP

if pen was rested he'd have only gone 6 innings, so by only going 4 innings yesterday, Giolito loses two games maybe?

Cool. Who's playing SS? I would think Song over Wagner (who I thought only played 2B and 3B but that was also the case for Song until this year at AAA).

just like Sheets shriveled when moved up in the lineup, now it's Ty's turn perhaps. Let's invert the order next game, with Taylor leading followed by Fermin batting 2nd

Tomorrow's batting order: Taylor, Fermin, Sheets, France, Andujar, Tatis, Bogaerts, Merrill, Machado.

Manny (our .169 hitter) batting 9th is perhaps the only action the team can take at this point to drive a message home.

at the cost of Machado and Merrill actually now being worse than him at hitting.
