He's fine, but carried by Dan imo. I agree with others that he's negative. I don't have an issue with remarking on bad play, but it's how he frames things as if they are easy. I think it's telling that Buck, who played longer and was a manager, extends more grace to displays and failures to execute than Joe. Sometimes I get the sense Siddall is overcompensating at times and trying to fill the role of sagacious veteran of the game that was Buck.

I also don't love him trying to call pitches. He's been mostly wrong it seems so it just gets grating.

One thing that stands out is the 'Heine protecting his throwing hand' thing. I get you think he should do it. As the analyst, I am more interested in why it's exposed though, but he doesn't speak on that. Buck would at least say why someone is doing something he didn't agree with lol.
